Heinz has brought back its famous baked beans pizza almost 20 years after it was sadly discontinued.
When it first arrived in supermarkets, the Heinz Baked Beanz Pizza made absolute waves and went on to become somewhat of a 90s food cult-classic, before it disappeared in 2003, reports The Manc.
If you thought pineapple on pizza was controversial enough, then Heinz is taking the acceptable pizza topping debate one step further as the food manufacturer has announced that its hugely-popular Baked Beanz Pizza is making a comeback the UK supermarkets after almost two decades of being discontinued.
Available to get your hands on from Iceland and The Food Warehouse stores nationwide, and setting you back just £3 each, the Baked Beanz Pizza is made up of a crispy base topped with tomato sauce, mozzarella, cheddar cheese and, of course, the brand’s famous baked beans.
The Baked Beanz Pizza is just one of a handful of Baked Beanz-themed treats the food manufacturer has introduced to shop shelves this year - with some of the other delicacies including the Heinz Beanz Burgerz, and Heinz Beanz Bowls.
The company already grabbed headlines a couple of months back with the release of Heinz Beanz Filled Hash Browns.
And it sounds like there could be even more Beanz dishes on their way too.
"This is our fourth foray into the freezer aisles for Heinz Beanz over the past year," explained Sophie Higgins - Head of New Ventures at Heinz.
"Following the launch of our first frozen ready meals range with Beanz Burgerz, Beanz Bowlz, and Beanz Hash Browns, we don’t plan on stopping there [so] make sure to watch this space for even more exciting Beanzy news."

Given how much debate there usually is to be had when it comes to pizza toppings, news that Heinz is bringing back the Baked Beanz Pizza has understandably got people talking on social media, and reaction to the pizza's return seems pretty mixed.
One outraged person wrote: "Don’t put beans on pizza", while another equally-fuming person added: "Pizza and baked beans have absolutely no right to be together. Not ever."
"I think baked beans on a pizza should be a criminal offence," a third person claimed.
But, just as there have been people shutting-down the concept as soon as they heard about it, others have welcomed the launch - with one person admitted that they already "think [they're] addicted" to the cheesy Beanz dish.
"Beans on pizza is amazing, and I love that it’s been made into an actual thing," another fan added.
Silver's Deli is opening up a sister shop, and this time it's about everything baked.
We all know and love Silver's Deli for their stacked subs and breakfast sandwiches that could cure any hangover no matter how severe.
They're so good, that they even bagged the coveted Uber Eats Restaurant of the Year Award last year.
And rightly so, because everything Silver's do is absolutely class.

And it seems there's just no stopping Silver's, as last month they announced that they'll be opening a sister shop named 'Silver's Bakehouse' serving up everything, yep you guessed it, baked.
What exactly has not yet been revealed, with owner Chris keeping details tightly under wraps.
But what we do know is that every single thing will be made fresh, with love, in-house, at their new brand spanking new location in Farsley.
They've been keeping adoring fans updated on their socials with renovation updates, and it's already looking absolutely top tier.
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, Silver's Deli said: "Well it’s happening. I said no more shops, but it’s kinda necessary, and I just love all things baked.
"There’s waaaaaaaaay too many details to share on this right now, but go give our sister shop @silvers_bakehouse a new follow and hold on tight. This is gonna be fun as fuck."
We're in no doubt that this venture is going to be absolutely brilliant, and you best believe we'll be first in line to try one of those brownies.
Silver's Bakehouse will be located on Town Street in Farsley and is opening next Friday 22 May - just in time for the late May bank holiday weekend. We'll see you there.

Not only are the cocktails exceptional, but their live music listings is something to behold playing everything from jazz and funk to cabaret and disco every Wednesday - Sunday.
Announcing the news to Instagram, The Domino said: "Listed by The Pinnacle Guide. The Domino Club has been recognised on the global list of the world’s best bars.
