So much for the instructions - shit for brains

Well to be fair, aside from the varnish inside the can, cooking into the food... or burning into the food.... I have come to appreciate following the manufacturers directions - for exactly the same reasons, "Thought I had a bright idea" - and based upon rushing, taking short cuts, ignorance, stupidity and or not thinking things through, not being aware of how bad situations can so easily develop from apparently simple low risk situations..... AND having built the industrial types of can cookers ---- I have no idea of the numbers of cans like these - but I vaguely recall cooking 200,000 cans per hour or something.... They were the size of 5 story buildings... steam heated etc.. but I do remember that the cans are cooked at 120*C, so they have a pressure inside them similar to a hot car radiator system.... so how hot his can averaged out to be??? No idea, but as soon as he opened the can, the partly cut lid blasted open as the above boiling point mostly liquid food, converted partly to steam and blew the boiling food into his face..... So when he gets to be your age, he wil l say to the grand children, "Lets follow the directions on the pack and empty the contents into a sauce pan chilluns".

The other point is that it's easy to write him off as a dumb fuck, but where were his parents, when it came to learning food safety and kitchen skills and reading the directions on the packet .... A lot of people are both abused AND neglected by their parents - maybe the kid wasn't an idiot - maybe he just didn't know, and maybe he didn't know how to read, and had been so fucked up - that he couldn't get it together to make himself learn.....

I also did an analysis of the typical cans of these kinds of foods, and some products dissolve into the soup, but with simple washing of the solids and comparing the amount left and the stated amount in the recipe, these canned soups / stews ONLY saving grace is convenience, portability and long term storage. I emptied the contents of similar Campells and Aldi foods, separately into a fine seive, lightly washed all the fluids off and measured - the piece numbers and full weight, of the meat, potato, carrot etc., etc., etc...... AND the cans were TASTING nice, but the contents - fuck that.... There was like about 120 grams of solids in a 450ml can of "Thick and Chunky Stew" - and Cambells and Aldi used near identical recipies - which included about 22 grams of meat, in a 450 ml can..... So nutritionally - these are total shit. The price of 20 cans, Vs the price of 20 cans on special, Vs., the cost of the same amount of RAW ingredients, Vs., the same amount of ingredients - that you can go and buy with the same cash as you would have used to buy 20 cans of this shit at full retail price - Except for the advantage of convenience and long term storage, REAL food leaves this watery canned shit for dead.... Do the price comparison - In Australia this shit is selling for $4.50 a can, on special $2.50.... How much meat, potatoes, cellery, carrot etc., could I buy at the same ratios as the soup for $45.00? I could make enough for 40 or 50 or 60 cans of this shit watery stew / soup. Or I could make 2 liters of really fucking brilliant stew every day, with some buttered toast etc., and have a THICK and NUTRITIONAL soup.... Lunch and dinner..... https://images-na.ssl-images-a....mazon.com/images/I/4

@sbseed: So when are you going to make a cooking video?\
