once youve strained it a whole can of creamed corn gives you barely a third of a cup why isnt anyone talking about this

i think it has to do with government corn subsidies


edit you people arent getting it so ive created a diagram

creamtcorn

look at all that blue thats wasted space between the creamed corns and it takes up over half the can

      It’s got less oxygen and moisture in it so that bacteria doesn’t have the energy to breed and spoil the contents.

      78% of the air is nitrogen. Stop being a dick.

      Great, start a chip company and start filling your bags with air.

      You’ll learn quickly that there’s another predominant element in air besides nitrogen (surely it won’t matter though, it’s only 20.8%).

      They mean 100% nitrogen. If they just filled chip bags with regular air they would be more sensitive to pressure changes.
