Why does Bush's Baked Beans have only one piece of ham/bacon in it?

You want more pig in your can of beans? I don't eat baked beans myself. Would rather make them from scratch.

    Must be a part of the secret family recipe - no with less "oink" for your buck.

    Did you know that Bush's Baked Beans started out as a product from Oklahoma?

    It was showcased once at the Oklahoma State Fair in the "Made in Oklahoma" display. Don't ask me how I know this, but I do.

    Because the ham bacon is only a flavoring it's the beans that are the star of the show.

    All brands of pork and beans have just one piece of fat in them. It's been this way for at least 50 years. If you are lucky it's a piece of pork or bacon. I think it's just for tradition. I've never seen any brand with more than one piece.

    Because Bush likes the gassy effects the beans have which the bacon doesn't have

    It comes with only piece because it's their to infuse the beans and sauce with the taste while it is being heated up during preparation

    It doesn't say "Baked Beans & Ham" on the label, does it?

    I'd say, if you want more pig, buy a can of pig, not beans.
