Things you find very difficult to open, or get into etc

The hard to peel foil top nestling under the 'proper' top that are on eg salad cream and tomato sauce bottles.

If you stab the foil with your trusty eight inch chef's knife, the whole thing becomes totally incontinent and squirts all over the place.

Complete bounders, every man jack of 'em.

Yes, when I was a carnivore I kept mine in the fridge all the time! 🧐

I would never put any unopened tin in the fridge. There isn't enough space there to waste it on things that don't need it.

Mmm, how amazing that you know the layout of my fridge. 🤔 🧐

Who said anything about your fridge (apart from you of course)?

Its not difficult. Just Google "the inside of Accy's fridge".

There are blog posts, YouTube videos, even a TikTok dance where the dancers take the form of cartons of milk and lumps of cheese.

corned beef is a lot easier to slice when it's chilled

Craft knives usually come in blister packs that are really hard to open without a sharp knife.

Supposedly in the USA, injuries from people trying to open blister packs are some of the most common injuries presented at the Emergency Room.

@Accy cyclist next time break the flap by using the handle of a teaspoon.
I have arthritis in my hands, I find lots of things difficult to open!

I tried that the other day when I tried to open another of those pots, like the one in the opening post of this thread. The plastic pot was so soft compared to the hard plastic supposed opening that it wasn't firm enough to support the handle of the teaspoon as I tried to break the hard seal of the lid. I eventually opened it by using a hard leather glove on my hand to stop any thumb cuts happening!

I love eating mackerel in tomato sauce.Their in those flat shaped tins with a ring pull on them.
Easy enough to open, but the inside of the lid is usually covered in sauce,and just as you get to the last bit of pulling the lid off ,it usually snaps / pings off covering you in the content's. and stinking off fish

Funnily enough, last night as I posted my above yours post I thought of tinned fish being a pain, not so much to open, but for trying to avoid being splattered with tomato sauce, olive oil, sunflower oil etc! I put a dishcloth over such tins to avoid such splatterings! Those ring/pull back tins when full of oil don't tend to splatter you, more no matter how you try to avoid the oil, it always seems to get on the tin's lid then onto your fingers!!!

I have heard that if you want a private box at the Everton ground they will pay you to occupy it!!!

(I might have made that up - apologies to any Everton fans)
