The amazing (but true!) journey of a can of
S & W® brand black beans as they make their way
across this great land of ours, and to other nations!

What started out as a simple joke has developed into an international quest
for world peace, love, tourism, and the promotion of high-protein vegetable food groups.

Welcome, my friends, to Beans Around The World, a site dedicated to showing you the lighter side of cities, famous places, landmarks, tourist attractions, and whatever else strikes our fancy, all as seen through the "eyes" of a can of black beans.

As the beans travel throughout America and the rest of the world, they pick up new experiences, new knowledge, and tons of new friends. But beyond that, they show the world that there is a common link between us all, even if it is a 15 ounce can of frijoles -- and a sense of humor. So join us, if you will, on this never-ending mission to bring the spirit of the black beans to everyone, everywhere. You'll be glad you did.
