    Traveling through Baltimore and spotted a Brotha from the nation selling bean pies and final call newspapers. I haven’t eaten their delicious pie in three years. Glad to see they’re out and about again. Navy bean pies are my favorite. 😋

    It's almost like the filling of a pecan pie.
    They used to be almost like a sweet potato pie, until they started with the custard type which is what it is now ... I think they still sell the original, in some locations .,

    Oh hard pass for me I don't like pecan pie.. Pralines either..
    You should try them ... There's another company or of Minneapolis that makes bean products, and they make a Vegan Bean Pie also (haven't tried it though) ..

    I love bean pies!
    I miss the days when you could catch a brother at the stop light and get a bean pie, a Final Call, and some incense!
    Don't forget The Pie Man of DC ... Look for his products in all over the DMV ...

    I like bean pies also, but I've become more discriminating ... sugar (I look at ingredients in general, I'm very aware that we tend to have more criticism when it comes to our ppl vs wypipo) ...

    I think I might try the one from all bean .. seems like a more healthy list of ingredients...

    I still buy and support every now and again, bc ... If not us, then who ✊🏾

    My uncle bought me one last week, I was excited. They are so delicious.
    I know right??? My family and I were on our way near home and I spotted him. My mother made a U-turn. 😂😂 My grandma thought they raised the price due to inflation. They were $5 each. My mother purchased five pies and a final call paper for $2. Now I need to keep some extra cash on me if we travel that route.

    We used to be able to get them all over in LA but those days are gone.

    I can't say I ever had a bean pie. I only really had a few different ones. The one I tend to eat the most (every year) is apple pie. I eat it around Thanksgiving and Christmas. A few people in my family make them homemade and they always make too many lol
    I only eat apple, sweet potato, and navy bean. I am going to make some pies with my mother soon. I had apple pie last month but it was from sam’s club. It was pretty good for store brought. The best pie I had was from black businesses. Omg, this lady that members of my family know has a soul food spot and she makes sweet potato pies that are so good. I haven’t eaten it in like two years. I also ate sweet potato pie from vegan spots that are black owned. I ate a mini pie from the BO vegan spot near my home and it was good. I’ve had it twice so far.
