Heyday Canning Company earns largely positive reviews for turning canned beans and soups into fast, flavorful meal-makers, with standouts like Coconut Curry Chickpeas, Harissa Lemon Chickpeas, Kimchi Sesame Navy Beans, Enchilada Black Beans, and Tomato Alla Vodka Cannellini. Reviews also flag weaknesses: occasional blandness or excessive sweetness, mushy or overcooked beans, bitter or oily notes, very high sodium, and some flavors missing depth—making quality uneven across SKUs.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
This is an example of a brand where the funky flavors are appealing, but then I realize... I don't know what to do with them! Maybe that's my failure on flavor choice and lack of creativity. I did enjoy the product, but I don't think I'd buy it again because it was a creative challenge that I'm not ready for on a random night when I'm trying to cook.

The curry beans are the bomb. So much flavor in one can that I can pretty much just eat them straight from the can (after reheating obviously) with rice or noodles. I adore the retro packaging as well, so cute.

I had the Coconut Curry Chickpeas. I thought the flavor was pretty good. Definitely a good lazy dinner/lunch option that wont take up space in your freezer or fridge. Maybe it would be good to take camping as a healthier option.

I loved the tomato alla vodka beans, they're just way too expensive for me to ever go out and seek on my own. I was able to try them thanks to ThingTesting but have not tried them since. However, I love how innovative this brand is - there's no other brand doing themed/flavored beans like this.

I am vegetarian, and tend to be lacking protein/iron. These beans really help me fill that nutritional gap. I love all of them that I have tried. They are so super tasty and I can eat them on their own or with some potatoes for a yummy meal.
The canned beans are good for a quick and easy meal that is also tasty.
As a vegan who eats a lot of beans, it can get boring. So I appreciated the unique, inventive flavors in these canned beans. The Harissa Lemon chickpeas are especially great on a salad or an orzo dish. The flavors are punchy and there's no 'can' flavor that sometimes seeps into canned beans.
Heyday Canning is such a fantastic brand! Their products are perfect for anyone who loves adding homemade flair to their pantry. The jars are sturdy and beautifully designed, making them both practical and aesthetically pleasing. Whether I’m pickling, preserving fruits, or making jams, Heyday’s canning supplies make the process so much easier. I love the attention to detail and how they’ve made home canning feel accessible, even for beginners!

Delicious beans with really good flavor. Thee are super interesting for canned beans - I look at them as a more high end product. Perfect for a side with dinner or lunch.

Heyday Canning Company has positioned itself as a convenient option for those looking for quick, flavorful meals. I recently tried their Tomato alla Vodka dish, and it was delightful. The sauce had a creamy texture with a pleasant balance of tang and richness. It paired well with pasta and delivered on comfort and taste. On the other hand, the Enchilada offering didn't quite hit the mark for me. It lacked the bold, vibrant flavors I'd expect from a traditional enchilada dish. The seasoning seemed a bit subdued, and it didn’t stand out as much as the Tomato alla Vodka. it's worth exploring their range to find your favorites.
I got this as part of the try new things campaign. They had a unique flavor and is an interesting concept. They seemed expensive to re purchase going forward. However overall was a nice product.

these are quite expensive for what they are, but also an easy way to eat beans with flavor already added and can be good for camping or eating directly!

I really wanted to lik this but was kinda meh about it. I tried the coconut curry and Butternut Lentil. Both were not bad but not great either..middle of the road just ok. I wouldn't search them out for anything. I do love that they are trying to revive the category and love the packaging design.
I'm OBSESSED with Heyday's beans! I am not a beans kinda person, I don't reach for them in tacos and basically only like them in chili, but Heyday totally changed my world. We whip these up when we need a last minute dish or side, but honestly over some toast is just great with me. Tomato alla Vodka all the way.
Heyday Canning Company’s coconut curry chickpeas are absolutely delicious! The combination of creamy coconut and rich curry spices makes each bite packed with flavor. The chickpeas are perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of crunch and tenderness. I love that they come in a convenient can, making them an easy snack or a quick addition to any meal. If you're looking for a tasty, plant-based option with bold flavors, these coconut curry chickpeas are a must-try! 🌱🍛

Good tasting beans that is different outside of the traditional flavors. Fun to use to spice up my dishes and make it a great food experience.

Super easy, super tasty - imo just add rice. Flavours are on point, I tried the Golden Butternut Lentil Stew and the Coconut Curry and loved both. Wish they had a larger variety of soups without gluten, but hoping this brand expands soon. Fun branding and really unique flavours!

The chickpeas are delicious! I also love the packaging and can’t wait to share with my family! They also can be made into hummus for a quick snack!
I love the novel flavors that are available! Especially the tomato alla vodka. Great side addition to a meal and healthy with great flavor profiles!

I tried the Tomato Ella Vodka and Enchilada Baked Beans. Both were very tasty. Calorie count could be a bit lower, but can't complain.
