Holy shit. From the Wikipedia entry on Peter Molyneux: Following the failure of his first game, The Entrepreneur:

"...Molyneux retreated from game design, and started Taurus Impex Limited—a company that exported baked beans to the Middle East—with his business partner Les Edgar."

So my first day on the Lenny, guessing there’s a meme here?

Yup, I don't know what prompted it but a few days ago people started a short trend where they kept spamming memes about beans. I think people have had their fill, though.

Likely because beans are so filling

He only got back into it because Commodore mixed his company up with another that had a similar name.
