Why do people say "as sweet as canned beans"?
As in, "She wouldn't hurt a fly. She's as sweet as canned beans." I don't understand. I think some beans are sweet, like bbq baked beans. But I feel like most aren't, they're either savory or just vegetabley.
"as sweet as can be"?
I think that might be it.
Bone apple tea.
Can we have /c/assweetascannedbeans as lemmy's counterpart to reddot's /r/boneappletea?

We have a winner
Yep
I have never heard this expression.
I've never heard this expression.
DO people say this? I mean. I've never heard it. It's about as odd of an expression as "weird as a government stapler".
Which as you know is a super popular expression that I totally didn't make up just now as I typed it....
Who says that?
I have never heard this before in my life
