What happened to baked beans?

6 recipes for all the Snowmageddon food you stockpiled | New York Post

"Heeding the scout’s motto to ‘be prepared’ — and abiding by the mayor’s draconian dictum that ‘the food delivery bicycle is not an emergency vehicle’ — New Yorkers prepared to attempt cooking at home and stocked up on staples like milk, eggs, chicken and, of course, organic kale. (Brooklynites took to Twitter to bemoan empty shelves at the Gowanus Whole Foods, where bags of the cruciferous vegetable had once been stocked.)"

New Yorkers are different, as everybody knows, so maybe they can scramble eggs when the power’s out (or maybe they just all cook with gas). Baked beans don’t spoil with no refrigeration, don’t need cooking, and a couple of cans will keep you going until the stores are open again. And nobody will pester you with recipes if you happen to have a can left over.
