[a] And speaking of this material, let me tell you the technical term for that
little plastic ring-pull beneath the cap on a bottle of soy or oyster sauce,
the one that is too small to get your finger into, so you use a chopstick to
pull it up, and you break both the chopstick and the plastic ring. The
technical term is very, very colourful – at my place, at least.
[b] A simple can of beetroot? You need a health and safety officer
standing by, just in case. I place the can on a sheet of paper towel and a
tray before stealthily approaching it with the can opener, but still end up
with a massacre on my hands.
[c] Ditto those sealed packs of prosciutto: they lead to yet another
battlefield. Which is the magic corner with the lift-up tab? I have yet to find
it. Does it even exist? Instead, I stab at the plastic with a sharp knife,
which means having to re-seal the leftovers in plastic wrap. Which means
opening the box of plastic wrap without maiming myself again.
