When i go shopping i see most vegetable and fruit tins with ring pull opening and some still not having them. a lot of meat tins you still need a can opener. Why do not all manufacturers now use ring pull opening?, it is easier.
Had "fun" with a pull ring can of sardines in olive oil tonight. The ring pulled right off immediately, two can openers failed to do more then make a small piercing, ended up attacking it with a screwdriver. Clearly such things are the work of the devil, just existing to put our stress levels through the roof. Shouldn't be allowed.
I know you can :) Difficult to use ring pulls with long nails, I imagine (I imagine it's difficult to do a lot of essential things with long nails).
I get annoyed by that thick resealable plastic packaging. I thought we were supposed to cutting back on single use plastics and the damned things never reseal properly. Often seen on bags of frozen peas and large packs of cheddar. 30 years or more ago I bought some Anchor butter with a free sturdy 'Tupperware' type box. It is still in constant use, it has the Anchor logo on the lid.
I find many ring pulls too stiff or hard to pull, so I use my electric can opener for many of them anyway. I’m not disabled in any way, or have arthritis in my hands, it’s just some cans ring pull cans don’t seem user friendly.
I know we have gone of topic but we reuse Cart D Or ice cream tubs for food storage, plus its fun emptying them, well it was until they changed to papery tubs
Looks like a handy gadget, TTT, might get one, thanks.
I like using the electric opener for corned beef tins, the way it turns the corners. I know, I know, it’s the small things in life :)

^^^ Opening a can of Princes Mackerel Sizzle is definitely not a task to be undertaken when wearing a nice, new white shirt either, O_G , as I've found out to my cost ;-)
