Any you eat cold and out of the can? For me, it's Clam Chowder and chili.

    Nope. Yuk! To each his/her own.

    Only things that don't need heating. I love fruit out of the can, especially peaches. I'd do chili out of a can if I bought some, but only while waiting for most of it to heat up (the spoon I use to get it into the bowl always ends up in my mouth).

    What is your favorite chili?

    Nothing straight from the can except canned fruit. Haven't done that in ages.

    I will eat pre-cooked sausages and hot dogs cold out of the package, though.

    OMG, ninerbuff :/:o

    I've eaten peaches that way once or twice. Oh, baby corn, I've done that. I don't understand anything else

    The ones on sale!!!! No real preference. As long as it's not too spicy.

    Pears and tuna I'll both eat straight from the can.

    Not together, of course. Ew.

    Lol, there are times I just don't feel like cleaning up and my stomach doesn't know the difference.

    Well that sounds gross! But I have a hard time getting an entire can of corn or baked beans in a pot and cooked without eating my entire serving first.

    I generally prefer my food cold to room temperature because I feel like cold food has more flavor than hot/warm food. I have no problem eating food straight out of a can as well ( though I prefer Italian Wedding soup over clam chowder). I also eat cold/ non-cooked hot dogs. I also enjoy frozen waffles( I feel like they have more flavor than cooked ones) and frozen ( yes, frozen) Smucker's Uncrustables. Cold chicken is the only chicken I eat ( I especially love cold chicken tenders). Cold steak is also VERY delicious. I could keep going on with a huge list of foods that taste delicious frozen or cold, but I think you got the point.

    Fruit or apple sauce, and maybe baked beans, and occasionally tuna. Anything that's meant to be heated, probably not.

    Beer is the only thing that goes from the can into my mouth.
    Things that need chewing, ugh.

    It's a desert of rice and cream, usually vanilla flavour, in a can. I think it's also called nice cream??

    Never heard of it in the US. We have rice pudding, but not in a can, and it sounds a little different. If I ever make it to Australia, I'll have to try it.

    It's yummy, And yes, it's very similar to rice pudding, but in a can. I'm sure you guys have something similar??

    The only things I buy in a can are tomato paste and occasionally condensed milk or coconut milk. So, I cannot imagine just eating (or rather drinking) any of these things on their own from the can.

    @saraness Cold leftover chicken tenders are the best breakfast!

    Out of the can though, tuna, fruit, and sardines which don't really compare because they are generally eaten cold anyway. I might eat the leftovers cold, but that's completely different.

    I like putting canned beans (chickpeas, kidneys, black beans) in salad.
