    * For people following a medically-monitored ketogenic diet this product could've been catastrophic. They recently changed their nutritional facts due to 'FDA guidelines'...from 3 net to 18 net carbs per can. I'm floored as to how any company can get away with being so drastically off, and I found it very concerning.

    * If you're eating a keto or low carb diet, these beans are a great substitute. They don't taste like black beans, but have the texture and heartiness you do expect from beans.

    * Used to be 5 stars until The Eden Organic Black Soybeans have completely changed their nutritional value. They are now 5 net carbs per serving verses 1. I called them and they said that because of the new FDA guidelines, they changed their nutritional labels. This is huge if you’re on keto or low-carb.

    * I have used these for years in chili and loved them; this year, I rolled the dice and tried them in a black bean brownie recipe. Because they crumble more than they mash, I had some reservations about wasting them, but I used a food processor to break them down for that step, and I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome! I would imagine just about any black bean brownie recipe would work; we sub the beans with these and also the sweetener with a keto-friendly version. Delicious treat, and great fiber content!

    * Very keto friendly, which is awesome! But prepare for the mother of all stomach aches. Both me and my husband had bloating and GAS, lots and lots of gas, after eating these. Note: this are unsalted and taste sweet, more like a kidney than a black bean.

    * One of those foods I was missing on Keto is beans. I absolutely love beans. Was so amazed and grateful to find this product, they taste pretty close to black beans. I just season them up nice and use them in chili, burritos, tacos, and "rice" dishes I make. I'll continue buying this product over and over so I never run out again!

    * You know that feeling when you open a can/bag of a low carb substitute, and you kind of expect for it to have a different/unknown flavor and texture? Well, I was ready to embrace the weirdness when I opened the first can, but was surprised to taste and feel no major difference between these and regular black beans.

    Cant wait to blend some of these bad boys with garlic and G Hughes bbq sauce for a dip. Yum! Try it! The price isn't awful either.

    * These are a wonderful substitute for those of us on a very low carb diet (e.g., keto). They don't taste like much right out of the can and are a little hard, so I simmer them for ~20 min on the stove with some vegetable or chicken bouillon paste and they are ready to go! Not many brick-and-mortar stores carry these, so I was happy to find them on Netrition.

    * Good hint. When used straight out of the can, you will run into a "hard" bean once in a while. So ... I drain each can , rinse the beans, and put them in a sandwich bag. One can per bag. I usually buy 6 cans or more at a time, then I fill up a gallon freezer bag with all the sandwich bags and they keep forever in the freezer. Just grab one or two bags when cooking. You will never find a hard bean again. Great for soups, a pot of ham and beans, in salads, homemade baked beans etc. Love these guys .. otherwise I would never be able to eat beans again.

    * I like them out of the can but I usually buy them in bulk, dry from Eden Foods. Very filling because of the high fiber content. I soak them overnight in salted water and the next day cook them in fresh, unsalted water. Soaking them in salted water gives them flavor. My favorite bean because they are so filling. High fiber, high protein. Well worth experimenting with, worth trying to increase your bean recipe repertoire.

    * These are about the only beans you can eat any real quantity of on a low carb diet. That is, if the nutritional information is correct...its a little hard to believe the net carb count on them. But there is absolutely nothing to compare them to. Apparently these are the only canned black soybeans on the market...I haven't found any other brand.

    They are unsalted, so they are almost flavorless out of the can. You have to step on them with significant salt and spices, etc.. Great for someone on a super low sodium diet though...but thats not me.

    * If possible, I would rate this product as a 10. These beans are the foundation for so many wonderful meals that would otherwise not be possible on low-carb diets -- chili, refried beans, bean and cheese burritos (with low-carb tortillas), and just plain beans and cornbread (with low-carb corn muffin mix), and many more. The secret to using these beans is to simmer them on the stove for at least a couple of hours before using them in a recipe. Your family or friends will never guess that these aren't just the same old regular beans. I served my chili using these beans to a group of 16 friends, and the raves never stopped -- "easily the best chili I ever ate," they said. My family's favorite dish is barbecued beans made with Guy's low-carb BBQ sauce and barbecued ribs.

    * This is a great black bean substitute! They are more hard than the regular grocery store canned beans but the 'secret' to using them is to always have a can that has been opened, rinsed and stored in your freezer. Freezing the soy beans turns them into the softer version you already are familiar with. I always have a 'can' ready to go. Try it! You'll be amazed. Good for refried, dips, soups or chilis.

    * I use these in my strawberry green smoothies for added protein and fiber. I also use these in a bean soup. I blend them up, along with oven roasted onion,celery,carrots,garlic and a bit of salt with water to get the consistency I want. They are a quick, filling and hearty meal. I also combine them with refried beans on my low carb burritos. Highly recommend.

    * My favorite bean because of high protein and fiber. I use them in my green smoothies (when sweetened with stevia, liquid splenda as well as whatever fruits going in, can't even taste them); I make a filling bean soup with them by grinding them up in the blender with whatever flavorings I put in; I use them in baked beans by adding two cans to one can of regular store-bought baked beans and adding low sugar catsup, garlic, etc. to jazz them up; add them to traditional refried beans to augment fiber/protein, just a great bean. Really wish I could find them locally but glad I can find them here.

    * Been using Eden black soy beans for years and really like them, but can't get them locally. Try them in chili, re-fried beans, baked beans (the best), sub for kidney beans in lettuce salads (good), and in navy bean or bean soup (with ham, smoked turkey, etc.). You may want to cook them longer but I also use them right out of the can.

    * Perfect for those who choose low carb. I use these in place of other beans in chili and have made baked beans with them for a bbq (they would be best cooked in a slow cooker all day). Just reordered so I could try making a recipe for black bean burgers that I just came across.

    * Very impressed with these soy beans! They are not black, which I found interesting. They look like a basic pinto bean and to me they taste about the same. Made a big batch of chili, it was fantastic. Now I plan to make "baked beans" and other favorite recipes without using up my carb count for the day. Very good, would recommend it to any bean lover. I have read some bad reviews on the internet, but we all have different tastes. Maybe they agree with me because I was eating soy products when soy wasn't cool. :~}

    * We live a low carb lifestyle and LOVE these beans!!!

    We make chili with them and can hardly tell the difference between them and ordinary black beans. We've even mashed them to make refried beans that are wonderful!

    We heartily recommend Eden Foods Black Soy Beans to anyone looking to reduce their net carb intake!

    * Since low-carbing, we have really missed beans - be they pinto, kidney, black, whatever. I am so glad I decided to try the Eden soy beans. I have used them (so far) in a pot of chili and they worked very well. Was it just like using pinto beans? of course not; but eating cauli mash is not nearly the same as eating mashed potatoes either!

    I have just ordered some more and will be making some into refried beans for our chalupas, and I'll also be using them again in chili.

    My one criticism is that they are rather pricey.

    * We love these beans! They are versatile and I have used them in many recipes. Great cold in a salad with corn, peppers, cilantro, onion, garlic and lime juice. Also I make a Mexican style pureed soup with them. Put drained beans in a blender and add chicken stock, cumin, chile powder and salsa and blend it all and then heat it up. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and chopped cilantro - yummo! Loaded with fiber and very healthy.

    * I use these as substitutes for pinto beans for making cowboy ranch style beans in a cast iron skillet on my Texas wood-fired smoker BBQ. With the addition of garlic, chili powder, jalapenos and a little german mustards, these beans came out great. The best Pintos I can find are Bush brand at 18 carb & 7 fiber = 11 net carbs. These black soys are net 1 carb; nothing else comes close & the taste was great. I just ordered several more cans & I have not seen these in the local stores.

    * Most of the time I buy Eden Foods black soy beans in the dry form and cook them myself, but I do like to keep a can or two of this product in the pantry for times when I don't have time to cook the dry ones. For anyone who has ever cooked dry black soy beans, you will know that the real challenge is to get them to be soft. With the dry ones, I add a bit of baking soda and that does the trick. (Yes, I know it destroys some of the nutrients, but it's a trade-off). I have found with the canned ones, the manufacturer apparently has the same issue in getting the beans soft as I do at home. I have purchased cans in which the beans were perfect and other cans where the beans were alright, but not great. Still, I am satisfied with the overall quality of the product but I do think the price is a little high, given that I can make them myself from the dried ones for $.16 a serving (not counting stove energy cost), but we do pay a bit extra for convenience, right?

    * When I'm in the mood for mexican food, these black beans and some chicken or beef wrapped in a low carb tortilla hit the spot. They taste good with lots of spices. Haven't tried them plain - heck, I'd probably never eat any beans, refried or otherwise just plain. That gives me the idea to try making a bean salad with some olive oil and vinegar dressing.

    * These are a godsend to those on low-carb diets who crave beans for chili, soups, and the like. They have a great taste and are so easy to use, just open the can. And with Netrition's $4.95 flat shipping rate it doesn't cost an arm and a leg to get them sent to you. I always order several cans of these with my other items to take advantage of the low cost shipping.

    * These do not add an overtly soy flavor to the foods that I have used them in. I have baked them blended into a cake batter and what can I say, but yummmo! But mostly use them in my exceptional chili, have added them to soup, enchiladas & tostada salads too. They are not full of sodium and I appreciate that! Very versatile since they are not flavored and they are packed with protein. Give them a try! The possibilities with these are endless.

    * These are a great option for low-carb dieters and diabetics who miss eating beans. However, they do have a harder, almost crumbly texture compared to other canned beans, so they take more cooking to become tender. This is why I gave them a 4 rather than a 5.

    Their texture is not a big deal for chili or soups, especially if you add them early so they have plenty of time to cook. Also, since they are not starchy, you can't rely on them to help thicken your sauce. You'll have to cook it down more or use some Thick'n'Thin.

    But if you want to make re fried beans or a dip, plan on cooking them a long time before trying to mash them. If you don't cook them long enough, they won't mash well by hand. (Maybe you could use a blender or food processor for this...I haven't tried that, since I usually want a semi-chunky texture.)

    As others have noted, they also are a little bland straight out of the can, and take more seasoning than other canned beans. But so far I've been able to get them to taste good in every recipe I've tried.

    * These are so good. I make a bbq bean recipe with bacon and sugar free bbq sauce and onions, even my kids ate this when I wasn't looking! ( I make this for myself, not them!) :) They taste like firm black beans to me. It smells funky when you open the can, just rinse them. They are firm and very tasty. Without seasoning they almost have no flavor. So you can really create whatever flavor you would like by adding seasoning and other things.

They are an excellent substitute for regular beans (pinto, kidney, etc.) in any recipe requiring beans. I most enjoy them in chili and 3-bean salad, but have also made bean dip from them and ham-and-bean soup. When I serve recipes containing black soybeans to others, they have no idea they've gotten anything different or healthier - I just get rave reviews! High protein, low carb, great taste!

    * These are fantastic! They are great to use in any soup or chili recipe you have, and go great with any Mexican dish, too. A great low carb way to still have beans and TONS of protein to boot!

    * My hubby and I are both diabetic, so a low-carb diet helps us control our blood sugars. Using these beans allows us to have chili, and make other dishes that require beans without upping the carbs so much. They're very tasty.

    * The health benefits of black soy beans are phenomenal, but they can be hard to find. My local grocery store does have this same can, but it is $1 more each, so the price on Netrition is great. These are good tossed in salads or heated up and served as a side dish with butter and parmesan cheese. I also serve them Mexican style with shredded cheese, salsa, and sour cream.

    * These are a great substitute for the usual kidney or pink beans we miss! The plus is that they are almost all protein & fiber! I use these in chili; I also drain and rinse them and add them to pasta salad (using Dreamfields pasta); and I add them to many casseroles too.

    * I used these beans in my favorite low carb chili recipe and they added just the right touch. My husband and I love chili, but the usual kidney beans or regular black beans that we previously added to our chili became a big no-no when we started our low-carb diets. These black soy beans supply the beans we like, and a lot of nutritional value, without adding very many carbohydrates. Since they are also a no-salt added product, we can also control the amount of salt we consume (very little). I am looking forward to preparing a batch of my homemade bean soup in the future! I have not found any canned soy beans in my local supermarkets, and am happy I can order them on line through Netrition.com.

    * I made chili with these beans and it was great. They are a little "crisper" than most canned beans, and I did have to add more spices than normal because they are very plain tasting, but they are a great low-carb alternative and did not raise my blood sugar levels. I would definitely order this product again.

    * I made baked beans with these. I added sweet and low brown sugar (1 teaspoon), onion flakes, a slice of bacon on top and low carb ketchup on the bacon. Baked it for 45 minutes and was thoroughly pleased with the results. Did not thicken up but was tasty and very low carb. This is a buy again product.

    * I agree that these beans were hard to mash to make refried beans, but I believe that if you simmered them with spices for long enough they would mash better. I simmered them for approximately 20 minutes and it helped, but I was in a hurry. They still made fabulous nachos. I am ordering them again and will try again. I am also looking forward to trying them in chili. This is a wonderful low carb substitute for beans.

    * I just made chili with these and no one could tell that these were soy beans. There is no smell that it typically associated with wet soy products. These are a great source of dietary fiber and protein (1/2 cup provides about 25% of the daily requirement of both)!

    * A great option for low carbers. I came close to giving it a 5, but, in truth, it's not quite as good as kidney beans on my tostada, but it's close. Good enough I've made the switch & would recommend it to others!

    * I love this product. It is high in fiber which makes it low carb. I had been missing beans since starting the low carb way of life but since finding these I do not miss having beans anymore. I do add some seasoning but that is it. I use then in any recipe that calls for beans. I even mash them and make refried beans with them.

    * Outstanding product. I ordered my first can based on the nutritional info (very important info which some on-line companies do not show). I was very surprised at how good the product is and placed another order. The beans mix well with other beans, but are also good alone. I find that I have to add a little seasoning when I use them alone.

    * If you want something that just looks like beans, this is the ticket. But they do not have the flavor or texture of normal beans. I tried making refried beans with them, they wouldn't mash right, and even with all the fat and salt they were inedible. I also tried them whole and they were equally bad.

    * Make chili all the time. This soy bean has been perfect for it. We make a huge pot once a week - and I'd be lost without my low carb bean! Enjoy the flavor and texture of these beans. My family has no idea it's a soybean - and they eat every last one in their bowl. That's a good sign!

    * We use these in absolutely everything! They have very little flavor on their own and really take on the flavors of what you're cooking, so they're good in many different kinds of dishes. Try them crushed with some spices in a low-carb bean burrito!
