1. Nutritional & Ingredient Concerns
   • Salt Content: Canned baked beans are high in sodium (salt), which may be a concern for individuals monitoring blood pressure or kidney health. A standard 400g can of Heinz Beanz typically contains ~1.5–2g of salt per 100g (varies by recipe).
   • Additives: Contains preservatives (e.g., sodium benzoate) and may include thickeners like carrageenan or guar gum. Some consumers avoid these due to dietary preferences or sensitivities.

   • Allergens: May contain traces of soy (from processing) or other allergens if cross-contaminated.
