Heyday Canning Company reviews and discussion

I really love these beans because they have so much flavor and are great for any dish. I buy these weekly and definitely recommend them.

I tried this through the thingtesting refund thing and they’re…good! I had it for dinner with some rice and it was…fine! I had to add cayenne because it really needed spice but I was pleasantly surprised by the layers of flavor. I will say that I have access to really great curries living in Atlanta and I have some sort of curry at a restaurant 1-2 times a week so maybe my standards are too high. I wouldn’t buy this again because it wasn’t anything exciting but maybe back in the day when I was in a baby vegetarian in college or something it would’ve come in handy.

Has a really good flavor I actually did pair this with actual enchiladas. (I got the Heyday Enchilada black beans) I recommend

I was able to get my hand on a free heyday can from ThingTesting. I was actually very shocked with the beans and how tasty it was. I am not CRAZY about beans but the kimchi navy beans were awesome. They were creamy and mix with the slight tang and umami of the kimchi flavor is just such an amazing combo. I heated up before trying and they were so good with rice. I’d highly recommend giving them a try! It is a little pricey for beans up front but try it and you will know they use high quality ingredients!

I tried the Tomato Alla Vodka beans and found them to be delicious and a super high-protein item to eat, but wasn't necessarily sure what to serve this item with - I ended up just having the beans with some sourdough bread. I can't wait to try other Heyday items!

I tried the coconut curry chickpeas and they were really good by themselves over some rice. I can see these beans making meals easier, especially as a vegan who eats a bit of beans to up my protein intake. I wish they were cheaper, but on sale it isnt so bad. I also picked up the harissa lemon beans and enchilada black beans. I might update this after trying those as well.

I really liked these beans! I noticed that the company has some recipes on their website, but I decided to just warm them up and eat with some parathas, which was the perfect quick and easy WFH lunch. The beans had a lot of flavor and weren’t mushy, which surprised me because typically canned beans are mushy and boring. I’m looking forward to trying more flavors!

I made the Coconut Curry Chickpeas for a small dinner party, and they were absolutely amazing. Full disclosure I did get this through the "Try things" discount! The chickpeas were great over rice. Love that you don't need a can-opener either, which makes this super accessible and the ideal donation for canned food drives! I totally understand that this is basically a rebranding for canned food similar to how Trader Joe's has rebranded TV dinners. But the chickpeas were honestly so good, and I will DEFINITELY be trying the other flavors. Love that they give vegans more options for delicious, filling, ready-made meals.

Love that they are elevating beans to a whole new level with this line of beans and lots of flavorful sauce. I tried the very tasty coconut curry chickpeas; my only suggestion for improvement would be the addition of a chopped veggie like roasted red peppers to make this more of a meal. In addition, I'd like to see some healthier versions, since this particular can boasted a pretty high fat and calorie content.

Super fun and interesting flavors! I got the harissa lemon chickpeas - they were nice addition to my salad today. :) I wish that they had an alternative to the can - I’m trying to limit canned products. I also wish they didn’t contain any added sugars or seed oils as well. These are nice to have on hand as either an addition to meals or as a standalone in a pinch!

Heyday Canning Company's products are awesome! I love how convenient they are as a side dish for any meal- it really helps cut my planning/cooking time down by a lot. The coconut curry chickpeas were delicious and went really well over some rice!

Super cute packaging + canned convenience + fun flavors. HeyDay truly elevates the canned food experience. Although the Coconut Curry flavor was a tad sweet on its own, the flavorful chickpeas balanced well over rice. Overall, HeyDay makes tasty, quick, and easy meals! A bit expensive in my opinion, however, the delicious taste and convenience make it worth a splurge now and then. Excited to try the other flavors!

I'm recently obsessed with these canned beans, and for good reason! They're absolutely delicious. I've had the coconut curry and enchilada beans, and already went back to the store to restock. The flavors are on point and addicting, and you can taste the quality of the ingredients. They're pricey for canned goods, yes, but it's worth the splurge, especially when you're looking to create an easy, incredible meal with ease.

Update: Have since tried the kimchi sesame navy beans and the enchilada black beans - both delicious. The harissa lemon chickpeas were good but not my favorite - I think the rose water is an interesting addition but not my preference. Delicious, ready-to-eat vegetarian option! I bought a couple on sale from Whole Foods because they are kinda pricey. But the branding and flavors attracted me, and I had just gotten back from a trip and desperately wanted something quick but nourishing to eat. Also, in my area, buying the organic canned beans is nearly as expensive as buying the Heyday beans. I ate the coconut curry one (the harissa lemon one is still in my pantry), and I really liked it! The flavors are strong, and it really made my dish a meal.

I've tried quite a few of their beans - Harissa Lemon, Apricot Glazed, and Coconut Curry. I've found them all to be packed with flavor and obviously incredibly easy to make. I love having these on hand if I'm in one of those 'I don't feel like cooking but I should probably eat something somewhat healthy' moods.

Big fan of the concept and the variety of flavor profiles. Branding is super cute as well and definitely stands out on the grocery store shelf. Overall, the ones I've tried (coconut curry chickpea, tomato alla vodka cannellini, kimchi navy bean) have been decent, but I was hoping they would be a bit more robustly seasoned and flavorful. I (personally) needed to add salt, spice, and acid to each to bring out the flavors described on the cans. Given the fairly high price point, they're a bit disappointing as a standalone product, but not a bad starting point for a quick meal.

I was so eager to dive into these healthy bean meals however, I’ve tried three flavors already and every single one is extremely high in sodium and very, very salty. It’s pretty disappointing and I honestly would not recommend it for anyone. I actually don’t know what to do with the rest of my cans. Its just sitting around in my pantry. I should probably just donate them

I’ve never seen this brand in the store, so I was excited to try it. I didn’t love the flavor options available. The smokiness of the soup did not appeal to me. I’d like to see a couple of other classic soup flavors offered from them.

Delicious I love any kind of chili this one is fire roasted sweet potato and it has a smokey flavor. Vegetarians will love this chili it is plant based, gluten free, low in sugar, high in potassium, 14g protein, 12g fiber and only 150 calories per serving and pair it with cornbread and you will not go wrong.

First thing to note - I bought these during a BOGO sale. I think $4.50 for a can of beans is a high price point, but I think its's important to note that these are not your mother's canned beans. I bought the Tomato Alla Vodka (will update when I try that) and the Kimchi Sesame which I am currently eating as I'm writing this. These are phenomenal. Like if I served these to someone, they would not believe that all I did was open a can and microwave it with some rice. The flavor and spice level is absolutely perfect. NOTE: I REALLY LIKE KIMCHI AND SESAME. Unclear how these would be for someone who feels nonchalant about those ingredients. **EDITED 5/22** Tried the Tomato Alla Vodka and that tomato sauce is incredible. They should bottle that and sell it separately for anyone averse to beans. It's that good. Ate this over farro instead of rice and was delicious.
