Opening a Can of Soup

Before opening a can of soup, shake it well. Then open the bottom of the can of soup. More of the soup will come out of the can cleanly this way.

Please be VERY careful with the pull-top cans! I am recovering from a badly cut thumb from that SUPER sharp edge! Yes, rinse the tops first, and shake the cans or store them upside down are both good ideas.

The newer cans with the rounded bottoms empty well if you store them upside down! And you can stack them!

This is a great idea except for many of the newer cans that have rounded bottoms. Those are kind of a good/bad thing. Otherwise, will try this, thanks!

...and please wash all lids before opening.
