Years ago, I was at work and had some leftover beans or something and put
the tin can in the fridge. A couple days later, a co-worker noticed me
eating out of the can and was aghast. Said his sister had died from eating
out of tin can left in the fridge. I thought he was nuts. (Maybe the can
had been in the fridge a long time and there was botulism or it had rusted
or something?) Anyone ever heard of any problem with leaving an open tin
can in the fridge (for a couple days or so)? I leave opened cans in the
fridge fairly often. peas, beans, garbanzos, etc.

Yes, because you can cut your lip and bleed profusely and may die!

Eating out of anything while in the refrigerator can lead to
hypothermia, if you stay in there too long.

You'd have to be quite small to even try that.

They are all lined with BPA so no the tin won't kill ou.

The BPA could, though.

No escaping that shit. Recycled paper also contains BPA...

Do they make the doors so you can open from the inside now? I got rid of
extra fridge the other day (electric company gave me $30 because it was old,
and so inefficient) but I took the doors off because I heard weird kids
sometimes climb in and can't get out. Is it really true you can't just push
the door back open? What is different from pulling from the handle or
pushing from inside?

I notice most plastic containers for storage say "BPA free" now... But for
years I used the ones that must have had it. And used to microwave with
them. They said "microwaveable"

Times have changed, but rules have not. Years ago, refrigerators had
doors that latched shut and could not be opened from inside. Kids
found them to be good hiding places and were trapped. Today, they use
magnetic seals and can be pushed open.

The problem with those though, you can run out of oxygen and pass out
or be weakened before you realize what is happening. Still a good
idea (and a law in many places) to remove the doors if you set the old
refrig outside.

If you've shrunk down to the point that you can fit into a tin can in
the refrigerator, then you might well die.

Plastics are a real problem/issue, but we mostly seem to pretend the
problem doesn't exist. Easy to see why... what realistic alternatives
are there, considering plastic is used in damn near everything
man-made these days.

Yes you can die. I did so myself.
In August of 2003, I ate half the beans from a can, and put the can in
the fridge. The next day I ate the remainder of that can. Minutes
later I dropped dead. My autopsy confirmed it was due to the tin in the
can.

I'm happy to hear that there really is "life after death."

Soon there will be life after death for everyone with only a
handful of the living enjoying it, the others full-time slave clones.
They clone Gary, let's say, make an infinite number of copies of Gary,
and when he dies he's instantly replaced with a new Gary that feels
the same as the old one and carries on the old Gary tradition of being
a clone slave for some wealthy scumbag who never gives you a day or an
hour off, just basically works you to death, only to bring you back in
the form of one of your replacement clones, insuring that you will
never die no matter how badly you want it to happen. When the courts
of tomorrow sentence someone to 20 life terms, their cloned prisoner
body will be used 20 times to complete the sentence. If someone is
born a slave his body will be cloned and he will be a slave forever.
Yes, there is life after death. The question now is, is that a good
thing or a bad one?

Nah, just preserved. Remember, he was tinned.

Knew someone who ate from an open can of tamales - baaaad food poisoning. Another used some tomato paste from an open can - very sick too.

Botulism isn't going to become the toxin in an open can. It grows in an
anaerobic environment. I don't leave food in open cans in the fridge ‹
I just don't like the idea of it and it takes little effort to transfer
the contents to a glass jar or a covered plastic bowl.

I normally do, but sometimes I leave peas or chick peas since I usually use
them up pretty quick. I like a few cold chick peas by themselves as a quick
snack out of the can. Cold peas too... And cold baked beans.

Good point about botulism. I never understood why my friend said what he
did. It was just kinda odd.
