Nah, no one will be offended. I hope we all know that slang terms are often different from language to language.
btw, here baked beans can come in a can (tin) or a person can put beans with a nice sauce on them, rather sweet, in the oven and bake the beans in a pan or big glass dish.
There is a member here in the UK and she thinks the word "dumpster" is hilarious! We call those extremely large metal containers where we toss our garbage or recycling "dumpsters." But I call the thing in my kitchen a "garbage can" whereas as you might refer to it as the "bin." You may live in a gaff, whereas I live in an apartment.
I absolutely love how we learn from each other.
