Now the salt, that's a good criteria to choose. Not only for the health reasons, but also for the fact once they are cooked in enough salt, beans stop softening. So you should almost always add salt last to a bean dish.

My guess is math rounding. Both show 110 calories per serving, for the same can weight. The Amazon one shows no fat, 5 grams fiber, 7 grams of protein. The Wal-Mart brands shows 6 grams of fiber and protein, and 1/2 gram of fat. That could be within the variation of different cultivars (selections within the same species), but from my understanding pinto beans pretty much sold as a single type of commodity, so are farmer or wholesaler in that area.would be needed for confirmation.<br />

"Obsolete" Funny because there are entire aisles devoted to canned beans on supermarket shelves.

The produce section is always my first stop. And I do make my own beans.
Now based on the common cost of $1/pound, that makes these cans worth 25 cents.
I know unless I'm planning to make a meal for 5+ people, I usually end up using canned. The extra hour to 90 minutes is simply not worth the cost savings. It's a huge hassle if I'm only making 2 cans worth of beans or less.
As for shelf life of canned goods? Arguably it's eternity.

Selfishly, I for one wish you would post more truth, harshly, so I can get the giggles.
