    Please DO NOT FRY ANYTHING in a can, cans contain an interior plastic lining, which can burn! Forms of cooking without direct heat are fine, such as pressure cooking and boiling or steaming, but please do not hold it near dry heat like a campfire or try to fry something in it.

    As for a can opener, go to a surplus, camping store, or on line and get a few of the old military issue P-38 can openers. It folds flat and can be carried in a wallet, purse,or on a key ring. It's not fast, but it works

    if when you are freezing food in zip lock bags freeze them flat. Them they will fit in your cooler like books. If it is something like chicken you are going grill do not fill the bag too much. 2 or 3 thin blocks of frozen chicken is a lot easier to cook than a 2 or 3 inch block..

      @@nrgltwrkr2225 Yep you're right, silicone or that lovely teflon rubbish. But silicone is also a synthetic monomer in which silica is only one ingredient. Unfortunately there have been very few studies done on the leaching potential of silicone. There are a few scattered studies that suggest silicone will leach endocrine disruptors, especially when in contact with high-fat content material. Among other things. Worth looking into. :) I can't say I'm particularly borthered either way, as I don't use kitchen supplies in this fashion. But jumping down research rabbit holes can be entertaining. :)

    can openers are only a buck at dollar tree, so that is a no brainer to bring one. rest assured, you can also pop popcorn just like those jiffy pops when you buy 2 tins at dollar tree, put some oil, use a metal coathanger for the handle and put aluminum over it to pop it. YES it will expand, so leave it room to do so. as for the other hacks, those are pretty cool.

    Please do not keep cooked potatoes wrapped in aluminum wrap. By depriving the potato of air you can breed botulism in the potato and no amount of reheating will get rid of it. If you want to partially cook the potatoes put them in a container unwrapped to take with you and then rewrap them right before you reheat them
