Heinz has launched a new range of nuggets filled with baked beans and vegetables, and they’re now stocked in supermarkets across the UK.
Family mealtimes aren’t always smooth sailing, especially if everybody wants something different and you have a few fussy eaters to cater for, but Heinz is hoping to make them “a whole lot easier” for parents and carers with the launch of its brand-new Magical Beanz Nuggetz range.
The new range is designed to appeal to kids who love typically love nuggets, but aren’t so keen on eating their vegetables.
The golden crispy bean-shaped nuggets are packed with baked beans and veggies.
The veg-packed Nuggetz come in three child-friendly varieties, and are also made to contain no artificial flavours, colours, or preservatives.

The NEW Beanz Nuggetz are here! Yes, you heard us.😇 Golden, crispy and delicious, these bean-shaped nuggetz come in tomato, curried and cheesy flavour & taste unbeanlievable.
With something for everyone to enjoy, the three varieties in the range are Original Nuggetz with tomato and sweetcorn, Curried Nuggetz with parsnip, carrot, coconut and mild curry spices, both of which are suitable for vegans, and the Cheesy Nuggetz with cauliflower and cheddar cheese.
This isn’t the first time Heinz has taken its beloved baked beanz and combined them with other foodie favourites either, as last year it launched beans-filled hash browns and brought back its famous baked beans pizza after almost 20 years.

“We know that parents want quick, easy meals that their kids will eat, but they also want them to be delicious and without any nasties,” explained Sophie Higgins – Head of Growth Platform at Heinz.
“We’re also seeing more parents opting for meat-free options at least once a week, and of course, if we can help parents get some extra veggies into their kids’ mealtimes, we know that’s a bonus too, that’s why we’re really proud of our Magical Beanz Nuggetz.

“Who knew you could make nuggets out of the little nutritional powerhouses that are beans? They really do seem magical – or as we would say, unbeanlievable.
“We think they’re set to be a mealtime game-changer.”

Drinks prices revealed as Manchester Airport’s first-ever Wetherspoons pub opens inside T2
Emily Sergeant
It’s official… Manchester Airport’s first-ever JD Wetherspoon pub has officially opened its doors inside Terminal 2.
The 300-seater pub – which welcomed its first customers earlier this week – is named The Belle Vue after Manchester’s historic showground.
Throughout the pub, you’ll spot design features that nod to the city’s sporting heritage – including vintage event posters and memorabilia, a ‘locker wall’ hosting trophies and other sporting exhibits, and a cricket-themed design in the carpets and bar panels.
Creating around 150 jobs in the process, The Belle Vue is the final planned new eatery to open in the airport’s redeveloped Terminal 2, marking one of the final steps in the super-terminal’s decade-long, £1.5bn transformation.

According to the MEN, pints are priced from £6.20 for Carling and Coors lager, £6.45 for Budweiser, £6.60 for Guinness, and £6.70 for Poretti and 1664 Biere.
Prosecco is £9.20 for 175ml glass and £37.10 for the full bottle, while spirts and mixers are £6.80 for singles and £10.20 for doubles.
There’s also the classic Wetherspoons tea and coffee machines, where you can refill as many times as you like for just £3.60.
“It’s a proud moment to see the final new retail unit opening in our new-look Terminal 2,” commented Richard Jackson, who is the Retail Director at Manchester Airport.
“To be rounding off this 10-year programme by adding such an iconic name as Wetherspoon to the terminal is particularly special and we know that it will prove extremely popular with passengers. We think they’ll love the nods to Manchester’s heritage in the décor and design – and of course the name.”
The Belle Vue will be open from the first flight to the final flight each day, and food will be served from opening until 10pm.

Iconic Manc movie 24 Hour Party People is set to return to cinemas for its anniversary
Emily Sergeant
One of Manchester’s most iconic movies is set to return to the big screen next month.
Remastered in 4K and returning to UK cinemas to mark 24 years since its original release, Michael Winterbottom’s 2002 biographical comedy drama film, 24 Hour Party People, tells the story of Manchester‘s popular music community from 1976 to 1992 – specifically about Factory Records‘ founder Tony Wilson.
The film begins with the punk rock era of the late 1970s, before moving through the 1980s into the rave and DJ culture, and of course, the ‘Madchester‘ scene of the late 1980s and early 1990s.
The narrative largely follows the career of Tony Wilson, played by Middleton-born actor Steve Coogan, while also covering the careers of the major Factory Records artists – especially Joy Division and New Order, as well as A Certain Ratio, The Durutti Column, and Happy Mondays.
If you haven’t seen 24 Hour Party People before, it’s a dramatisation based on a combination of real events, rumours, and urban legends, as the film is sure to make clear.
Coogan is joined by a cast by a mixture of big names and, at the time, rising stars like Paddy Considine, Shirley Henderson, Lennie James, John Simm, Ralf Little, Andy Serkis, Sean Harris, John Thomson, and even Peter Kay, alongside cameos from other figures connected to the Manchester music scene.
Before it returns to cinemas, the film will first open music and media festival/conference, Beyond The Music, at MediaCity in Salford on 6 October.
The screening at the festival will also be followed by a Q&A with Coogan, Winterbottom, and producer Andrew Eaton.
24 Hour Party People will then be re-released in UK cinemas from 9 October, and you can check your local cinema for screening times and book tickets online now.
