1. Tomatoes

2. Tuna

3. Chickpeas

?

Lentils

Beans and pulses

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).

 

In addition to the above (to which i only disagree with spam and corned beef) I woukd add

- baby carrots

- baby new spuds

- fray bentos pies (does that count as a tin?)

- sardines 

- pilchards

the only thing I buy in tins is kidney beans for chilli, everything else has pretty much been replaced by plastic packaging.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?

Heinz tomato soup

Heinz veg soup

tuna

kidney beans

baked beans

baked beans with sausages

potatoes (for adding to tinned meat for yummy casserole. possibly with tinned peas)

tomatoes

chopped tomatoes

 

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.

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.
