We’ve partnered with Shop Ethical on this review to show the ratings that the Ethical Consumer Group gives to each company (not product).

Products

We chose 16 traditional baked bean in tomato sauce products available in major supermarket chains nationally. Price is based on one standard can (or closest) bought in Sydney stores (not on special).

Tasting

We set up a blind taste test where each product was tasted by experts, who gave a rating based on flavour, texture, appearance and smell. Not all characteristics in the taste test were treated equally, with flavour being the most important and weighted heavier followed by texture, appearance and aroma.

Scores

The CHOICE Expert Rating is made up of the taste test score (70%) and the nutrition score based on the Health Star Rating (30%).
