Instant black beans

I tried Fantastic World Foods Instant Black Beans yesterday.  Pretty good!
If you're not into cooking your own dried black beans, this is a safer alternative too canned goods, which may contain carcinogens like BPA.

The directions say to just add hot water.  I found the need to put the mixture into the microwave briefly to get the mix to absorb the water.  I didn't add any spices--the mixture is well spiced and flavorful on its own.
