Nice to see something still being produced in Maine.

The B&M Baked Bean factory in Portland – that’s right down the road from our house – is going to be on it!

From the WGME website:

Burnham & Morrill Company has been in the canning business since 1867. In 1910, the business was moved to its current location on Casco Bay in Portland. On Thursday, March 11th the B&M Baked Beans factory will be featured on the History Channel’s Modern Marvels. The show starts at 8pm.

We don’t have cable, but maybe I’ll download it on iTunes tomorrow.

Tonight? I think I’ll need hot dogs and beans for supper …
