I don’t have trouble most of the time. I’ve gotten a couple thin little cuts many years ago. I can do it on a manual or electric Can opener. I usually take it all out of the can and put it into a bowl or container so I don’t touch those sharp edges and get cut. I like to slice it up all at once anyway. The thing that still gives me the willies in the kitchen is opening one of those cans of biscuits or rolls that pops. That bam really startles me and I always ask someone to open it if there is anyone around. It startled me the first time and I just dread that pop, but getting cut a little on a can, oh well. Haha.

My mother-in-law bought me a little tool for pulling off those keys on cans. The problem is that I cut myself with them once or twice in the past and I'm now deathly afraid of them. Even though I know what I did wrong back then. Fear is not rational, which ought to be obvious. Anyway, I don't know what this little thing is called. But the cans will open even around the key with a good can opener. I wouldn't try that with an electric one though. -----Original Message----- From: Cookinginthedark <cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org> On Behalf Of Marilyn Pennington via Cookinginthedark Sent: Friday, July 31, 2020 8:54 AM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: m51penning...@gmail.com Subject: Re: [CnD] Is There a Secret to Opening Canned Corned Beef? When I break the key, I just use my electric can opener and open the other end. Hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: Cookinginthedark <cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org> On Behalf Of Dani Pagador via Cookinginthedark Sent: Friday, July 31, 2020 3:49 AM To: cookinginthedark <cookinginthedark@acbradio.org> Cc: Dani Pagador <pocketfulofs...@gmail.com> Subject: [CnD] Is There a Secret to Opening Canned Corned Beef? Hi, Everyone. I wanted to make a corned beef and egg omelet for sandwiches and didn't get very far with the can. I broke the key and don't know how I'll get it open without Sweetheart's help. This is the second time this week. The can strip that I managed to remove is wound really tightly around the key, so I don't see how it can be removed. Is there a secret to successfully opening those kinds of cans? I hope so, because there are more cans like that in my near future, and I'm not looking forward to unsuccesses. Would a regular can opener work? Frustrated, sad, and hungry, Dani _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
