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

    I once took a can of boiled peanuts and shelled all the peanuts. I measured everything in the can out as I did this. I basically ended up with…

    • ⅓ peanut water juice
    • ⅓ peanut shells
    • ⅓ actual peanuts

    Though in all fairness, everyone knows the shells are basically their own automatic wasted space, so I dunno… 🤷
