  1. When rushed and hungry, (generally at work when it's busy), what types
    of foods can or do you eat right out of the can, cold?

    Canned cream soups
    Spinach
    Cut green beans
    Asparagus spears
    Baby corns
    Black Olives
    Green Olives
    Any other canned veggie depending on my mood.

    Canned beans are out tho'. Those have GOT to be warmed up!

    I can't eat canned creamed soup cold, sorry. That's one reason I really
    like those Campbell's Soup at Hand and other quick microwaveable soup
    containers. 3 minutes... about the time it takes to make a phone call at
    the office. Voila... sip or spoon up lunch.

    Canned beef ravoili. It's better that way than it is heated up.

    Err, absolutely nothing but then I don't buy commercially canned
    anything and would have no hankering to eat anything othewise straight
    from the can. Sorry

    Plastic containers? :-)

    I've not looked for those.

    Since I don't watch television any more, I don't see some of the "new
    and improved" items on the market.

    It's been a bit over 3 years since I quit watching anything but news and
    weather on the [censored] tube, and I listen to the radio more.

    Those canned Chef Boyardee or HEB raviolis. I think I've warmed
    maybe 1 out of the last 10 cans (in 4 years).

    Chunky(tm) Sirloin Burger and Campbell's Homestyle(tm) Wedding
    soups.

    I have a fondness for canned chick peas, right out of the can, same
    with lupini beans. Black/green olives. Of course, tuna. Pineapple slices.
    Diced tomatoes with basil type of thing, that I pour over pasta I
    cooked, if that counts. I'd consider those canned potatoes.

    NO cold soup out of the can.

    That's one of the first soups they made in the Chunky line. Tiny
    little hamburgers with grill marks on them.

    I love this group. It is always interesting seeing what people like to
    eat, or in this case, are willing to eat.

    I'd rather eat cold cream.

    Spinach

    It doesn't matter whether it is cold or not, canned spinach will never
    pass my lips.

    Cut green beans

    Works OK for me.

    Quoted message said:

    Asparagus spears

    I've never tried it. I'm sure I would like it, but this stuff costs
    money. If I'm going to buy it, I'll get the fresh and cook it.

    Quoted message said:

    Baby corns

    Good idea.

    Quoted message said:

    Black Olives

    Heaven on earth. That's a whole meal right there.

    Quoted message said:

    Green Olives

    Good, but not a meal. If you have a fridge at work, you might consider
    one of those little packages of salami or pepperoni. They keep forever.
    Crackers keep forever also. Now, *that's* a meal!

    Whatever works for you. We don't eat stewed tomatoes. There is just no
    use for these things. A couple of times I've gotten desperate and there
    are some in the pantry. Dump in bowl and eat. Not bad.

    And don't forget the beets, especially pickled beets.

    Not my favorite, but it works. I was in college, and met a young lady.
    I went to her house. She lived with her parents. I'm invited to
    dinner. Sounds good to me. We're in the kitchen, and mom is making
    dinner. She has this huge baking sheet, and it has a ton of chicken
    pieces on it. We never ate chicken when I was a kid. Dad doesn't like
    it. I don't like it. Oh well. A few minutes later, the power goes
    out. It is an electric stove, so no chicken that night. What a relief!
    Mom opens up a canned ham and some baked beans. It was great.

    I don't think they are plastic... some sort of morphed microwavable metal
    "cans" 🙂

    Doesn't get more trailer trash disgusting.... that wallpaper paste is
    bad enough reconstituted and heated, but raw, you gotta be kidding.

    I'll eat the black olives as a snack... the rest, blech!

    Canned cold beans are fine if drained and tossed with a salad dressing.

    I like canned beets.
    I like canned creamed corn.

    And naturally any kind of canned fish is a treat... tiny sardines,
    kipper snacks, smoked oysters, etc... nice with some saltines but not
    really necessary.

    And cold Spam .... excellent when you have a mess of those Chinese
    take-out condiments... hot mustard and duck sauce go well with Hormel
    fillet mignon.

    I do like kidney beans on a salad. I imagine you could pour a little salad
    dressing on some of those items to make them tastier. What about fruits? I
    love pineapple right out of the can.
