Beanz Meanz Heinz



Heinz Beanz were launched in 1901 as "Heinz Baked Beans" and were produced in the United States until early 1928. In London, Heinz Baked Beans were sold at the Fortnum & Mason department store around the turn of the 20th century.


The slogan was created by advertising executive Maurice Drake and became one of the best-known advertising slogans globally.


Interestingly, Heinz Baked Beans were referenced by the English rock band The Who on their album The Who Sell Out. Another notable fact is that a staggering 1.5 millions cans of the beans are sold every single day in the UK.
