What collective noun is for baked beans?

There isn't a specific collective noun for baked beans. While we have "a flock of birds" or "a herd of cattle," baked beans don't really lend themselves to a traditional collective noun.

Here are a few options, though, depending on the context:

Informal:

* A pot of baked beans

* A bowl of baked beans

* A pile of baked beans

* A heap of baked beans

More playful:

* A symphony of baked beans (alluding to the sounds of bubbling beans)

* A chorus of baked beans (similar to the above)

Ultimately, the best choice will depend on your specific writing style and the desired effect.
