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.”

Home Bargains has announced a special two-day closure of all UK stores

Home Bargains has, once again, announced it’ll be closing all its UK stores on both Boxing Day and New Year’s Day this year.
And it’s to make sure staff get a ‘well deserved break’.
After what has been yet another busy year for the retail industry, many workers have been left feeling like they could do with a little extra time off, which is why Home Bargains is following on with what has become a now-annual tradition by shutting up shop on two bank holidays.
All of our stores will be closing for Boxing Day & New Years Day.
Announcing the move in a post on social media, the discount retailer confirmed: “All of our stores will be closing for Boxing Day and New Years Day. We would like to thank all our colleagues for how hard you have worked this past year, and want you to relax and enjoy the Christmas break with your loved ones.”
Of course, this isn’t the first time the retailer has kept its doors shut on bank holidays.
Many shoppers will recall it has made the same decision to give hardworking staff a break every year since 2019.
Explaining a little more about the decision taken to close all its stores, Home Bargains said: “As a family-run business, we know the importance of being together at Christmas with those we care about most, now more than ever.
“This is our way of saying thank you to our colleagues for their continued hard work and dedication.”

Two Greggs in Manchester will be serving their breakfast menu in the evening next week

Who says breakfast has to end at 11am?
In news that’s set to be music to the ears of breakfast lovers in Manchester, Greggs is giving them exactly what they want.
We all know that brunch is a ‘thing’ by now, so now it’s time for brinner to make a name for itself instead, as Greggs has teamed up with Heinz to bring its much-loved breakfast menu back for tea time, kicking off from 4pm onwards.
The move comes as a new survey has found that the majority of Mancs (69%) admit to enjoying eating breakfast food in the evening, saying it’s ‘convenient and comforting’ – even ranking breakfast as a ‘more important’ meal than tea, as well (38% vs 36%).

Greggs says it has ‘lost count’ of the amount of customers that have tried to order breakfast items after the usual cut-off time, especially in Greater Manchester.
But luckily for those breakfast-loving Mancs, they can finally get their favourite breakfast and sauce pairing long after the morning rush is over next… but only at two Greggs branches, and only for a very limited time.
On Wednesday 14 and Thursday 15 October, the Heinz x Greggs Brinner collab will be available at Greggs St Mary’s Gate and Greggs Oxford Road, from 4-7pm only.
“We’ve lost count of the number of customers who have tried their luck ordering breakfast after 11am, so when Heinz came to us with the idea of making Brinner a reality, it felt like the perfect excuse to give the people what they want,” explained Zoe Harris, who is the Customer Director at Greggs.
“And let’s be honest, a Greggs Bacon Roll just wouldn’t be the same without a squeeze of Heinz Tomato Ketchup.”
