5 – Work Around the Lid: Once you have created a small puncture, continue to work your way around the outer rim of the can lid, using the spoon to gradually cut through the metal. Take care to apply steady pressure and maintain control of the spoon to avoid slipping.
6 – Repeat as Needed: Depending on the size and thickness of the can lid, you may need to make multiple passes with the spoon to fully cut through the metal. Take your time and work methodically to ensure a clean and safe opening.
7 – Remove the Lid: Once you have cut through the entire circumference of the can lid, carefully lift it off using the spoon or your fingers. Exercise caution to avoid sharp edges, as they can cause cuts or injuries.
8 – Access the Contents: With the lid removed, you can now access the contents of the can. Use the spoon or other utensils to scoop out the food and transfer it to a clean container or plate for serving.
