    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Recently, I was checking on some old tins of W.Ø. Larson Old Belt Ready Rubbed Virginia from 2005. I touched the lid on one of the tins & the lid flew off! Revealed underneath that lid was a significantly bulging but otherwise intact foil cover. As I popped the aluminum cover with my...
