Yeah, there's a kind I get that's good and comes in a can. Of course, I can't remember the name because I always just grab it on sight. Next time I go to the store I'll look though...

I really like the Little Bear brand from Hain.....although, I'm not sure what kinds of fats they put in it, so you'd want to look into it if it makes a difference to you. I do know it's not lard, though. Their refried black beans are even better than the refried pinto beans, IMO.

Easy Refritos
2/3 cup chopped onions 2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil 2 teaspoons ground cumin 1/4 cup diced green or red bell pepper (optional) 2 cups cooked black beans or pinto beans (16oz can) ground black pepper to taste In a heavy skillet, saute the onions and garlic in the oil on medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, until the onions begin to soften. Add the cumin and the optional bell pepper, and continue to saute for 5 minutes, until the onions begin to brown. While the vegetables saute, drain the beans, reserving their liquid. Add the drained beans to the skillet and continue to cook for two minutes, stirring constantly, until the beans are hot. Remove the skillet from the heat. Using a potato masher, thoroughly mash the beans while adding as much of the reserved bean liquid as necessary to reach a soft, spreadable consistency. Add black pepper to taste. Variation: Add 1 or 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh cilantro to the sauteing vegetables just before you add the beans. From: Moosewood Restaurant Cooks at Home (a totally awesome vegetarian cookbook)
