Whoever told you these were beans was jerking your chain. But you didn't mind. At the center of these delightful lil' candies was a crunchy peanut, and you loved peanuts.

But make no mistake, these weren't your grandmother's baked beans. They still aren't. Thankfully. Bet Your Beans!™The Original.
