Hmmm!
In Greece we don't make baked beans, at least the way they make them 
in the U.K. The closest thing we have is a kind of bean soup in 
tomato sauce. Also, we bake beans, my mother may bake what we call in 
Greek giant beans in a sauce, but they don't have any similaties to 
the baked beans that people eat in Britain.

Griffin782002 who stopped eating bean soup because one night she 
thuoght her tummy was jumping around :-/
