How to open the can

Recentry cans are not necesasry to use the can opener because there are with tab to open.
Japanese many can's tab has just this shape.
Tab floats above top of the can to open easily.

The yakitori can.Yakitori is a Japanese popular poultry foods.

When you open the can it is easy to open having some space between tab and top for insert finger.

There was no space when the can with tab had started to sell in Japan.
I had struggled to open the can but now I can open very easy.

Mackerel can

how about your country's cans?

My favorite food "Tofu"

Very famous Japanese and Chinese food "tofu".
Tofu made from soy beans and it is very healthy.

package

Tofu are almost having white and square shape.
How does that tast?

Actually tofu's tast is very bland but somehow very good.
In Edo era that was abot 150years ago, there were over 100 recipis in Japan, perhaps China was more recipis than Japan.
I like tofu and cook some dishes, put into miso soup and mabo-dofu and hiya-yakko.
Mabo-dofu is a Chinese food a little hot, it increase appetite.
Hiya-yakko is the most simple dish I think, that is only cut the tofu into easy size to eat and pour soy souce and some herbs put on if you want. In summer, cold yiha-yakko is good for to take nutrition
