i've seen beans being cooked while still in the can, over a fire, in old western movies, suggesting that's the way people used to do it in the old days.
i was planning on opening it with a can opener first and completely removing the lid. ok, thanks for your answers. i'll definitely remove my beans from the can. i hadn't realized that the metal from the can can poisen the food. once again, thanks!
