I'm imagining thinly slice potatoes and perhaps a bit of cheezley would got well on top of this whilst it's baking.

oh god yeah!!! damn, wish i'd have thought of that before. i was also thinking at the time, maybe a mix of crushed crisps, breadcrumbs and cheezly, to make like a crispy topping, but i couldn't be bothered with that. oh, and i used this mini casserole dish instead of a loaf tin, so i didn't need to grease it. and it made just enough for 1 person. perfect! :)

What countries don't have baked beans? :eek::eek::eek:
loads! i know italy doesn't cause i'll have a placement there in a few years and will be seriously deprived, i don't know how i'll survive! and my french penpal has never even heard of them. she's coming over in a couple of weeks, but i'm not sure it's fair to introduce them to her if she won't be able to have them again... :rolleyes:
get this from wiki france...
''Les baked beans sont des haricots (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haricot) blancs cuits dans uns sauce tomate (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sauce_tomate) aromatisée. C’est un plat typique du petit déjeuner anglais (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petit_d%C3%A9jeuner_anglais).
Ils se mangent souvent avec du pain (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pain) de mie frit ou grillé (baked beans on toast, ou simplement beans on toast). Les Britanniques les mangent aussi avec des pommes de terre au four (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomme_de_terre_au_four), du bacon (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacon) ou des saucisses (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saucisse), et quelquefois sur les pizzas (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pizza).
Les baked beans sont très populaires parce qu’on peut les fabriquer (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fabrication) et les acheter à peu de frais. Au Royaume-Uni (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royaume-Uni), par exemple, on peut acheter une boîte du baked beans pour moins de £0,10 (environ 0,14€), mais quelques marques de produits biologiques peuvent la facturer jusqu'à £1,50 (environ 2,20€).
Selon la légende (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A9gende), les marins auraient apporté le cassoulet (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassoulet) du sud de la France (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/France) en Angleterre. Différentes recettes de haricots se seraient melangées pour donner les baked beans.
En Angleterre (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angleterre), la marque commerciale de baked beans la plus célèbre est Heinz (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz), et le produit s’appelle "Baked Beanz". Ce nom fait référence au slogan « Beanz Meanz Heinz », réalisé aux années 1960 (http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann%C3%A9es_1960), lors d’une campagne de publicité particulièrement marquante.''
'A typical dish from the english breakfast'?? And it only mentions England as a place that sells baked beans...does that mean you don't get them anywhere else?! :eek: Do they sell them in America and Canada? omg, if they don't, that's a travesty!!!

My naturopath put me on it. I have a chronic illness related anaemia and very low ferritin. It works a treat and doesn't hurt my tum. It tastes foul tho, and so I put it in orange juice. :) It is the only iron supplement that works for me.
Here are the links to it. http://www.spatone.com/en.php?section=home and http://www.spatoneshop.co.uk/home.php

I use Spatone too, around the time when I am due to donate blood. I agree, it tastes bloody awful! Kind of like blood. AND yes, lol, I know what blood tastes like because I've nicked my finger by accident before and sucked it. Sounds gross lol.
