There's always one shitheel per restaurant that'll do that and fuck the knife up for everyone else. Never seen anyone do it with a knife they actually bought though.
Cranberry sauce is labeled upside down. It's to create an air bubble at the bottom end of the can (non can opener side). When you open the can upside down, you just need to swipe a knife around the can to get air to the bottom and release the entire can. Without the bubble, you'd have to shake the van out, or scrape it out. It wouldn't just "plop" out
this makes me laugh because thats how filipinos open cans so i didn't even catch it. admittedly the person in the video was shit at it but my family would open it with a knife just fine.
its more likely that every family has at least one knife. on the other hand, you might not have an accessible can opener + they only do one thing (unlike knives). my household in particular kept losing them or breaking them so we just used the knives. its not that hard nor does it take any longer if you know how to do it. def dangerous for kids though, ive almost stabbed myself once because the can slipped.
just gotta use the knife like an old school lever can opener. stab once, and follow the rim in a circle. some ppl are just a lil sloppy. visual example of doing it right: guy opening can with knife
Wait a minute. Are you telling me that people use knives to open cans to make sure that they have a knife!!?? That makes zero sense!
If anything it’s going to make the one knife useless by bending the tip, dulling the edge, and/or snapping the knife blade off!
sorry? i think you misunderstood. i meant that everyone who cooks likely has at least one knife, but they might not necessarily have a can opener. and yes it does blunt the knife. all our knives didnt have tips (like maybe less than half a centimeter missing) but they were still sharp enough to cook with and ive never seen one bend or outright snap in half.
I did know that but it’s incredible to me that they learned that whole canning process through trial and error, materials handling, inventing machines that cut the shapes, rolled and lipped, fitted graspers, rust proofing, standardizing tools and machining, shaping products to fit, then enclosing the whole works against heat, salt, weather, impacts etc and no one thought “Hey, how will the end user get this back out?” wow

That is unsettling, who murders a can like that?
Who murders a KNIFE like that!

Why are they all opening them upside down? I know that’s not the main thing to be derailed by, but they’re ALL opening them from the bottom?
Am I missing some secret can opening rule?

What!? That is interesting!
You can also just pop a small hole in the other end of the can. Works with refried beans as well.
You are a genius.
Something about an air bubble helps it shlorp out, so its kept one way then opened the other
SHLORP OUT. Lol. I'll be laughing about it for days.
I think the labels are upside down. You can’t use a can opener on the bottom of the can, you need to have the “lip” for the opener to latch onto
Even the person that knifed them open opened them upside down.
Thank you, my thoughts exactly
It's so you can see the label clearly when you let it schlorp out of the can into the food dish.
🤣
Literally ocean spray in a can
What am I missing?
One of the families being filmed opening cans is using a large knife to punch through the lids.
Oh, I missed that, thanks!
It's okay at least you weren't miss your cranberry sauce
I hated the one where the lid slowly sinks to the bottom...
That poor knife didn't deserve such treatment!
Why are they all being opened upside down? I’ve never done that in my life. Am I missing something??

Thank you, kind stranger!

But why? Can openers are easy, cheap, effective, and have to be faster

I see now. Thanks for clarifying.
I need to drink that water
The can was invented long before the can opener. Maybe they've just time-travelled to that era.
I did know that but it’s incredible to me that they learned that whole canning process through trial and error, materials handling, inventing machines that cut the shapes, rolled and lipped, fitted graspers, rust proofing, standardizing tools and machining, shaping products to fit, then enclosing the whole works against heat, salt, weather, impacts etc and no one thought “Hey, how will the end user get this back out?” wow
Are y'all all buying 5 cans of cranberry sauce? Ive bought 1 can every year my whole life.
Okay, but who told the maid she could wear press-on nails to work?
Seriously is this AI? Why is every single cranberry can upside down? Even the newscaster is opening them upside down?! Am I losing my mind?
Edit:TIL I've been the one opening it upside-down
