Yes, although the American ones come in a different, much more sugary sauce, which has led to Americans being confused as to why people would put it on toast and top with cheese.

Oh yeah those. Yeah that's one of the ways to eat beans in the US (with sausage and onions), but it's the third that comes to my mind personally. When I think beans, my first thought is Mexican refried beans, with salt, lime, probably some other stuff I'm not sure, and topped with a pinch of Queso. Not remotely sweet. Then I think of our chili's, which are usually pretty bean heavy too, how sweet they are depends on where it came from. In my experience it's mostly just the storebought chili's that have any sugar, I don't think people consider adding any to their homemade stuff.

American bread is also more sugary than uk bread too right? I've never tried it but I've heard from a lot of other fellow Brits that it almost tastes like cake in comparison

Something being sugary has never stopped an American topping it with cheese before.

We (not me personally) even put cheddar cheese on apple pie.

"But what if we put cheese in the cake batter before we fry the batter?"
