Got them at Costco 2 months ago. So far I’ve eaten 6 cans. I’ve found a couple stems, but it’s okay overall (thanks Del Monte).

      I love roasted fresh green beans, but the canned have their place. It’s amazing I never even had fresh green beans until I cooked them myself in my 20s… always frozen or canned until then. Of course the texture of canned is way softer. It makes them appropriate for different uses, like I’d rather have canned in a 3 bean salad. Kind of a whole different vegetable. As far as a spinach, I don’t see any reason to use frozen and the idea of canned spinach fills me with disquiet.

        even carrots I like raw better. they do add something cooked when combined with the right things. Canned grean beans I at best tolerate in a recipe and yeah spinach is right out. I love baby spinach as a lettuce alternative on a sandwich. It was one of the few things I liked about subway.

          I sub spinach for lettuce often on sandwiches. Same with other baby greens like chard, or even watercress or arugula.
