Follow up poll - why do you need a can opener? How often do you use it?

Posted by Meg (aka Mojave) Jan 23 '23, 22:28

I use mine for tuna and the occasional can of beans - maybe once a month.

Responses:

Yes and probably weekly. Just randon can things without pull tabs -- nm - Walt_Disney Jan 24, 06:01
I use mine weekly - decline Jan 24, 05:45
Black beans and rotel for nachos, the occasional can of corn and/or green chiles if I’m making white chicken chili. -- nm - Znufrii, exceeds expectations Jan 24, 05:16
Mostly for canned tomatoes and such. I don't eat a lot of food that's canned. -- nm - Krusty Jan 24, 04:55 1
- Also, a lot of cans seem to have pull tabs on them now so there's less need for a can opener. -- nm - Krusty Jan 24, 05:20
I have cans without pull tabs. And I'm still traumatised byt the time my roommate left me alone with two cats several cans and no can opener. -- nm - .☕ Jan 24, 03:48 1

Chili, stir-fry, quesadillas, several desserts use sweetened condensed milk. -- nm - landbeck Jan 24, 02:36 2
- What part of quesadillas requires a can? -- nm - Ender Jan 24, 02:52 1

Yes. I use it weekly. It's a hand held one. Electric can openers suck. -- nm - TWuG Jan 24, 00:48
canned tomatoes are better, coconut milk for stir fry, tomato paste, dog food and green beans for the dog. -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 23, 23:26

I use mine at least once a week. Opening ingredients for stir fry and Thai red curry and soup and such. - Beryllium Jan 23, 22:46
I can't shoot laser beams from my eyes to open cans yet, nor do I have Wolverine's claws. 2 times a month. -- nm - Peglegpete Jan 23, 22:40
we almost never have cans, and here virtually all of them are pull tabs now. -- nm - mafic Jan 23, 22:36 1
- Exactly. I use canned tomatoes and Progresso soup, both pull tops. Otherwise almost everything is fresh or frozen. -- nm - Meg Jan 23, 22:41
I use it probably weekly at my parents' place, never at my place. -- nm - Ender Jan 23, 22:35
