Surely you can just use the metal key to open it rather than having to resort to a knife?If you intend opening a tin of corned beef, pop it in the fridge
for an hour or two. It then slices a lot more easily.

Corned beef is LUSH.

Corned beef (I remember reading) is made from the better cuts of beef apparently. I wouldn't eat in a sandwich but corned beef hash is lovely with loads of Worcester Sauce and a couple of raw eggs stirred in just before serving

Irishman, Englishman and Scotsman were doing construction work on scaffolding on the 20th floor of a building.
They were eating lunch and Irishman said, "Corned beef and cabbage! If I get corned beef and cabbage one more time for lunch I'm going to jump off this building."
Englishman opened his lunch box and exclaimed, "Ham and English mustard again! If I get ham and mustard one more time I'm going to jump off, too."
Scotsman opened his lunch and said, "Haggis again. If I get a haggis sandwich one more time I'm jumping too."
Next day Irishman opens his lunch box, sees corned beef and cabbage and jumps to his death.
Englishman opens his lunch, sees ham and English mustard and jumps too.
Scotsman opens his lunch, sees the haggis and jumps to his death also.
At the funeral the Englishman’s wife is weeping. She says, "If I'd known how really tired he was of ham and mustard I never would have given it to him again!
The Scotsman’s wife also weeps and says, "I could have given him cheese! I didn't realise he hated haggis so much."
Everyone turned and stared at the Irishman’s wife. "Hey, don't look at me" she said. "He makes his own lunch"

Toasted Corned Beef and Branston Pickle sandwiches are the way to go.

I tend to agree with this. My memories of CB from my youth are terrible.

I feel diminished. I've always preferred spam with my pink champagne.

Thought that was common knowledge for all cooked tinned meat be it Corned Beef, Ham, Luncheon Meat whatever.

I think that generally corned beef is quite expensive for a tin although I do like it.
