"I've tried several different brands of refried black beans...none of them stack up. These are the best! The flavor is so much better than any of the others I can't even remember one that came close and the consistency isn't gum. There are actually pieces of beans that you can see, feel, and teast when you eat it. It's so good you can eat it alone (I do) and it adds to any of your recipes requiring refried black beans. Try them!"
"After visiting Guatemala several times, I developed a particular fondness for black refried beans. I now prefer black refried beans over the typical pinto refried beans. Unfortunately, finding black refried beans that taste good (i.e. no metallic aftertaste) and don't have lard can be difficult.These beans when cooked, are of a slightly more liquid consistency, which is great for dipping bread or chips. The ingredients for these beans include: black beans, water, salt, onion powder and garlic powder. A 1/2 cup of these beans has 120 calories and 1 gram of fat. Per 1/2 cup serving, there is 440 mg of sodium (estimated at 18% of your daily value). Please see the image gallery for this product to see a photo of the nutritional label.La Preferida refried black beans meet my dietary requirements, have a great consistency, and boast an excellent flavor. The only place I have been able to find this particular type of refried beans is Amazon. Other brands of La Preferida are readily available in stores so stock up on these fat free beans on Amazon.These beans are a product of the United States.UPDATE January 2012: I still utilize La Preferida black beans for cooking purposes. They have a great consistency. Since writing this review, I have found another manufacturer of good refried black beans. If you cannot find La Preferida, try San Miguel refried black beans. San Miguel refried black beans are not presently sold on Amazon but can be found at some supermarkets (I buy mine at Meijer). I actually prefer the San Miguel beans over La Preferida but La Preferida's beans are a bit more economical, especially when buying in bulk from Amazon."
