Green beans from China...

I bought a tin of Pot o Gold Whole Green beans (Choice grade!) recently to make Three Bean Salad. It is specially packed for Checkers. Absolutely disgusting, unappetizing. It is brown, some with pink flecks, some so tough it cant be eaten. What a waste of money. The BB date is 5/26... still 2 years to go. Product of China..... Surely there are better produce locally??
