Roast chicken rillettes (you can get this in cans in France and we bring back loads when we go over. Great on toast. Hilarious how much Waitrose charges for the same thing).
the only thing I buy in tins is kidney beans for chilli, everything else has pretty much been replaced by plastic packaging. Noticed the other day that Sainsburys' chopped tomatoes are now back in tins rather than tetrapak now as presumably more environmentally friendly?
Oh we have confit duck, too. We have a huge can of that in the garage and make parmentier when I can be bothered to prep the meat (it's a bit of a greasy faff).
Clubbers - almost too much like the pasta we had at primary school lunches.

I sliced my thumb trying to open a tin of corned beef, which I thought was a very 70s retro injury.

I eat tonnes of chickpeas. I buy a big bag, cook it all in one go and then freeze and use as wanted. Way cheaper than tinned ones.

Yes to everything in Clubber's cupboard, too. Although Mr D is very judgemental about baked beans with sausages in for some unknown bloody reason!

I like borlotti beans - of which the tinned version is very convenient - but hate baked beans.

Baked beans bought in a tin are rank.
Make your own with haricot beans, some tomatoes and tomato paste. Yummy.
As a student I discovered you can make about thirty tins-worth for less than £2.50 but would be more now.
