Yet another online war between Brits and Americans has been ignited after one TikTok user posted a video sharing her recipe for ‘beans on toast’.
There’s a very good reason why ‘beans on toast’ has been put in inverted commas there, by the way, and that’s because you only have to spend a couple of seconds watching this tutorial video to realise that this is not beans on toast as we know it.
Not even close.
The short video was posted to the ever-popular video sharing platform by a self-proclaimed “American in the UK” and it shows her taking a piece of uncooked bread, slapping it onto a plate, pouring a can of cold beans onto the bread, then a slice of packet cheese, before placing it into the microwave to (somewhat) melt it.
Are you as disgusted as we are just by the sounds of that? Well, have a watch for yourself.
If the woman in the video happens to look familiar to you at all, then that’s because you may well remember @jchelle36 from the last time she caused an uproar online with her bizarre tutorial on how to make ‘British tea’, or as she called it, ‘hot tea’.
It was unclear at the time of her ‘hot tea’ video going viral as to whether she was purposefully trying to trigger the British public with her brew making abilities, or if she was genuinely none the wiser, but after this ‘beans of toast’ sequel, it’s pretty obvious she’s pulling our leg here.
Or at least we really, really hope she is.

The ‘beans on toast’ video has already amassed well over 250K views, 3K likes and thousands of comments from, you guessed it, aggravated British people, but honestly, who can blame them though?
All we can say is that at least we know what we’re doing – we might as well just let her crack on.

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.”
