Canned Beans (Open) is a can of beans that has been opened and is ready to eat. It is one of the more filling canned foods, and it also works as a base for soups, stews and rice dishes. The price for that is a drop in mood, as plain canned beans make a character less happy.
An open can goes off fast. The beans stay fresh for 2 days and are fully rotten by day 4. The can comes from opening a sealed can of Canned Beans with a Can Opener or a sharp blade.
Eating
Eating a full open can of beans lowers hunger by 24. That is a large meal for a can that weighs 0.8. It holds 170 calories, with 33 grams of carbohydrates, 7 grams of protein and 1 gram of fat. That is a modest amount of energy for how filling the can is.
Plain beans add 10 unhappiness when eaten. A character who is already low in mood feels this. Mixing the beans into a cooked dish is a better way to use them.
Among open cans, beans match Canned Corned Beef (Open) and Canned Spaghetti Bolognese (Open) on hunger. Both of those hold far more calories, at 720 and 540. Canned Corn (Open) and Canned Peas (Open) lower hunger by 16, which is less than the beans.
The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.

Cooking
An open can of beans cooks in 10 minutes and burns after 30. It can be heated in an oven, a microwave or over a fire.
The beans add 24 hunger to Soup, Stew and Rice dishes. That is as much as the whole can gives when eaten plain. They add 8 to an Omelette, a Sandwich, Toast or a Salad. A cooked dish spreads the filling value over several servings and avoids eating the beans plain.
The Make Bowl of Beans recipe pours the open can into a Bowl. The result is a Bowl of Beans.
These dishes take the Canned Beans (Open) as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.

| Soup | 24 | - |

Storage
An open can of beans stays fresh for 2 days and is fully rotten by day 4. A fridge slows both counts down. Sealed Canned Beans keep without spoiling, so the best plan is to open a can only when it will be eaten or cooked right away. As the beans go stale and then rotten, their good effects turn bad.
Notes
- Open a can of beans only when it will be eaten or cooked that day.
- A pot of soup or stew gets the full 24 hunger from the beans.
- Eating the beans plain costs 10 unhappiness, so cook them into a dish instead.
- Eating the beans leaves an empty tin can behind.
- The Make Bowl of Beans recipe turns the can into a Bowl of Beans.
