Anybody ever have trouble with those fruit cup things? They are as dangerous as a grenade. If you are the least bit impatient you will end up with what seems like at least a gallon of juice all over you.
These thing are booby trapped and must be disabled only by trained individuals with the correct tools otherwise the plastic cover(trigger) will squirt fruit juice for about 3 feet. It seem to me these thing are deliberately rigged to explode.
I have heard rumors that an entire 3rd grade class was wipped out by a couple of these things that were open simultaneously during a snack break but it may only be a rumor.
A Claymore mine is only slightly more dangerous. Be careful!

I hope they were not heating the unopened cans on the stove first.;)
For some reason, the lids are so tough to pull loose, newtons law
goes into effect as soon as the lid cracks. Perhaps its time to change
the packaging.

Did you take note of the imprinted text on the bottom of the container that says, "OPEN OTHER END"?

Ever try opening a can of sardines? I need to open it in the sink. Other wise the sardine juice gets E v e r y w h e r e. The convinient pull tab to open them is not so convinient. I get a lot of supervision from the cats though. They are at the ready to help me out.

Could be! How about fruit-tasting cups? http://www.baronbob.com/edible-candybra.htm (http://www.baronbob.com/edible-candybra.htm)
...or the candy g-string further down the page. (I'll be REALLY good and will refrain from comment about that.)
One thing (two things?) about a good bra is that it won't let you down.
