Rosarita No Fat Refried Beans with Green Chile and Lime, 16 oz, 12 Pack

We each have our own tastes when is comes to comfort food. Mine include refried beans, and Rosarita’s have been my go-to brand for years. But I’m at an age when I have to eat for health and nutrition more than comfort, so I gave Rosarita’s non-fat recipe a try, and yep, they’re still as comforting, plus even healthier. As lagniappe, they’re more affordable here on Amazon than I can find them locally, so win/win.

I live in E.Tennessee, near a very large ConAgra plant. (These are made by ConAgra.) I don't know if these are made here, or were brought to this plant, but they were always available at the "Company Store" day for employees. A friend used to work there and would buy a case or 2 for me every time they were available. Prior to that I had never seen the product. They ARE NOT available in any store near me and they are not available in Chicagoland where I moved from 12 years ago. I am absolutely THRILLED that Amazon has this product. Through the years I have made my own fat free "refried beans" and Mexican Rice, and tried to keep meal sized portions of each in the freezer, but there is absolutely nothing faster than grabbing a can of these, some cheese, onion, flour tortillas, and making quickie burritos. OR, try adding some jalapenos and cheese and having a great, healthy dip in a couple of minutes in the microwave. The spicing is just right, the consistency is just right, they are nutritious without out any calories from fat, and they are so versatile. (My homemade Mexican Rice thaws faster than my homemade "refried beans" did.) I hate admitting to such laziness and impatience, but at least I have this wonderful product to reduce my sense of guilt. Amazon, Please keep carrying these and start carrying the other 2 NO FAT versions of Rosarita Refried Beans!!!

I love these beans and the Green chile flavor and buy a case of each each month. Another customer asked were these vegetarian or vegan because they listed "natural flavor" as an ingredient. It can be from plants or animals. When I wrote to the company to inquire they wouldn't tell me. I didn't want to know what the ingredient was just were they plant based and vegan. I was told that it was what made their products flavor and could not be devulged! I wrote again - are they vegan? No answer. Not too pleased with this company. It's a dietary choice and I don't want to eat animal products. Not sure if I'll continue to order these. Bummer!!

Slightly spicy which gives it a great taste.

Smooth

Loved flavor hard to find in local stores

I don't mind a few dents here and there, but this seemed like a case of rejects.

taste so GOOD!!!
