Duo Cans

I’ll be perfectly honest, I don’t remember Duo Cans myself, but my dad suggested I put them in and, being the dutiful son, I thought it only fair and proper that I made the effort to research them.

And what a peculiar piece of ready-meal culinary genius they were too.

Basically a can of curry and rice that you opened from both ends – one end had the curry, the other had the rice. First, you had to heat it up by sticking the unopened can in boiling water. Once it was hot enough, you burnt off your fingerprints by opening this cylinder of molten metal – at both ends! – with a can opener then poured the contents onto your plate.

Hard to work out why they didn’t last, really, isn’t it?
