Baked Beans, Original

Bush's Original Baked Beans start from a genuinely good base of navy beans, so a half cup gives you about 5g of fiber and 7g of protein for roughly 150 calories and only 1g of fat. The catch is the seasoning, because that same half cup carries around 550mg of sodium and 11g of added sugar from brown sugar and plain sugar, plus real bacon and caramel color. For a health minded shopper these work as an occasional side, but they sit closer to a sweetened, salted convenience food than a clean bean. If you want the fiber without the load, plain no salt added beans are a cleaner swap.
