How to open the lid of a large canned yellow peach

It is recommended to use a specialized can opener or use the principle of thermal expansion and contraction to assist in opening the lid of large canned peaches. The difficulty in opening the lid may be related to factors such as vacuum sealing, bottle cap corrosion, and hand slippage. It can be solved by using towels to prevent slipping, soaking in hot water, and increasing friction with rubber gloves. The main reason for the difficulty in opening cans is the pressure difference between the inside and outside due to vacuum sealing. You can invert the can and soak it in hot water at around 80 ℃ for 1 minute. Use the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the metal cap and the glass bottle body to soften the sealing rubber ring. During operation, it is important to note that the water temperature should not be too high to prevent the glass from exploding. After soaking, immediately wrap the bottle cap with a dry towel and rotate it counterclockwise. If there is rust on the edge of the bottle cap, you can add a small amount of edible oil to lubricate the gap, let it stand for 10 minutes, and then try again. In special circumstances such as severe deformation of the bottle cap, a flat head screwdriver can be used to gently pry along the edge of the cap to release air pressure. This method poses a risk of glass breakage. It is recommended to wear protective gloves during operation and control the prying angle within 15 degrees. Patients with diabetes or arthritis can use an electric can opener to avoid injury caused by overexertion of hands. Unopened cans are more prone to difficulty opening after long-term storage, and it is recommended to consume them within 6 months after purchase. After opening, canned food should be consumed as soon as possible or transferred to a sealed container for refrigeration storage. The edge of the metal bottle cap may undergo slight deformation, resulting in poor secondary sealing. You can cover the bottle mouth with plastic wrap and then close the cap. Canned peaches have a high sugar content, and it is recommended to limit the consumption to less than 200 grams per serving. Paired with nuts or yogurt, it can slow down the rise of blood sugar. If any abnormal conditions such as tank expansion or liquid turbidity are found during the opening process, consumption should be stopped immediately.
