My wife is a fan of canned green beans. She ate them as a kid and unlike a lot of things from her childhood that she didn't like and doesn't remember fondly, for whatever reason, these still scratch an itch for her.

Ron, hilarious.

I don't know if I'd go quite so far, but whenever I go to Villa Nova for a pizza, where they give you a choice of fresh or canned, I prefer the canned.
No on the canned asparagus and green beans, though, for me. (Though I prefer my green beans slow cooked for hours vs quickly cooked. Unless they're grilled or fried until they're deeply blistered and get rid of that "green" taste.)
