Why Should We Store Tins Of Beans Upside Down?

[sandyRoe]

I saw this mentioned in  newspaper but it didn't say why.

perhaps in case you want to export them to Australia?

Them that know, said less beans stuck to the bottom of the can, and more beans at the top  !!

When I'm having beans on toast I scrape the last of the sauce and beans out of the tin with a spoon.

This seems to be a non story.

if you buy an upside down can you may start to wonder what's going on in the world.

How ridiculous the so-called "serious" newspapers have become.  

If the Telegraph had come out with such a silly article back in the last Century they would have been thoroughly (and rightly) scorned. They're lowering themselves to the level of The Sun and other tabloids.

What next ?  The Spectator telling us we're wiping our bums with the wrong hand ? 😀

Surely you're not using someone else's Canary?

I've got half a tin in the fridge.  I could try it with that one..

I just give them a good shake before opening

The tin isn't upside down. It's just that the lable is the wrong way up.

In older times you would have just opened the other end
