Trader Joe's Black Beans

Trader Joe's Black Beans are kind of on the brown side for black beans but they do make a fine addition to any salad. Rinse these well before adding them to your greens.

I can't say these are much to speak of but they are worth getting. I'm still not big on them.  

First Street Black Beans

There just isn't much to say about canned beans. I mean, yeah, you can eat them with other stuff, but they add very little to the meal and are kind of high in salt.

Think of these as a canvas to paint flavor on and you may do okay with them. They work as a carbohydrate for those losing weight but are a little short on protein to be thought of as a combination. 

That said I will probably get these again if they are the cheapest option or I can't find something healthier. 

El Pollo Loco Black Beans

Not as good as the pinto beans and makes more of a mess. If you like black beans then yes, if you don't then no.
