That is NOT mold, Bananas turn black then they rot and or get dehydrated, they did not have freeze dried food then which would have made them keep color
The banana flakes tin has a double top. If he had opened the top instead of the bottom, he would have seen another lid that is resealable. This is because you may only use a small amount to feed a baby and then recap the can to put in the fridge. It is similar to what you see in modern tea tins.
I should be working, but here I am, watching a person on the other side of the world opening cans of brands that I have never seen in my country. It is wonderful.😍
Side note: my great grandma worked for Martindale Foods for over 20 years. She’s 98 now and says it was a great company to work for. At their peak they only had about 100 workers so workers cut the food by hand and canned it by hand. I showed her this video and her eyes lit up
Your Grandma and mine and many others are from a hearty stock that I fear we won't see again. Their history will be lost unless we keep it alive.. Cooking with Clara.... Hi to your Grandma. !!
It was amazing to me the potatoes were still in perfect shape but contaminated by the rust. The same thing for the black eyed peas. Even the little green snappers were still fresh looking. It just goes to show u, canned goods last a hell of a lot longer than the expiration dates. Thk u for sharing this.
I was a military food inspector. What I see. The banana flakes, both cans had moisture infiltration. probably because the lid is not the typical crimped lid. The bulge on the inside of the lid was designed so when the can is opened the lid can be replaced if all of the product is not used. Probably the point of failure. The potatoes, from what I saw was still under vacuum so the seal probably wasn't compromised. The problem with the potatoes though is the container. I could see the inside had a condition called spangling where the metal is reacting with the food over time and the zinc and chromium is leaching out of the metal. Also those old cans used lead solder in the side seams which is also probably leaching into the food. The soup and peas are what is known as swellers. Cans swell because the seal has been compromised which allows oxygen and bacteria to enter. The bacteria, something like clostridium botulinum or clostridium prefringens. When these bacteria consume the food they off gas which causes pressure that makes the can swell. The bacteria leave behind deadly toxins (if consumed).
Thank you! Someone speaking some sense here before some silly soul goes off and tries eating 50 year old canned food from their grandmothers basement! LOL 🤪
The oldest thang I’m consumed is a can of spaghettos from 2009 last year they tasted funny so I looked at the date how does can food get pushed behind stuff for this long
I feel like you should send samples to a lab to see their mineral content after canning and storage and I'm dead serious. Not only for farmers to get an idea of how much more mineralized our soil was but how much was maintained during storage. Plus if the metal leached into the food.
I recall being a kid and my mom having a huge pantry of canned goods. The thing is some of them were swollen and bulging - as I later learned indicates salmonella and or rot . She never served my family those foods - not sure what she was saving them for . We even moved a few times and those cans went with us .
Seems like a lot of people are getting this video recommended to them late at night. Here I am 1:51 AM watching some random dude opening old cans from the 60s. lol.
RU-vid recommended this to me at 12:30 am so I thought hey I’ll watch it. I’m glad I did. The paper he took out of the second can of bananas had a recipe for Banana layer cake. My grandma use to make them for me. She passed away in 2019 at the age of 95 and the recipe died with her. Now by some miracle I have what looks like the recipe she may have had in her memory. ❤
I saw when the Mississippi River dried up, they found a steamboat with canned goods from the 1860s. They open the pickles right then and ate them, and you can still hear the crunch. I would eat that pickle.
Its crazy how the two banana flake cans look totally different. They may have been on the same assembly line right next together. But there lives where totally different 😮
Talvez essa banana em flocos nunca tenha sido vendida aqui no Brasil, apenas no exterior, pois nunca vi sequer propaganda disso. Excelente vídeo. Fiquei na expectativa de que algo não estivesse tão ruim, mas seria impossível.
TheSpock23 this is why cable is failing. Who needs cable when you have this high quality entertainment. Not saying that with any sarcasm whatsoever. I’m subbed
Sounds as though you and he should start a club for virgins who worship weird shit. If you could tie it in to Star Wars, even better. You could meet at Chuck E. Cheese every Saturday night, perhaps get a ride from your mom.
Because you aren't used to them. People that lived in the 50's and 60's think the same about modern cans. They're more retro and modern. I guess my point is, they're different. That's what caught your eye!
It looks like an old can opener from the late 70's or early 80's that my mom has and it still works. The backside has a thing to "sharpen" knives. It is true, they do not make things as they used to
i used to watch these vids all the time lmfaoo. i just recently remembered you and wow, i now know why i was so entertained these vids are so fun to watch
A couple months ago I was doing apartment clean out and there was canned food from 2006 and I decided to open a can of Campbell's cream of Chicken and it was pretty scary because when I opened it I was expecting to see gray and black and foul smell and it was complete opposite it was as if it was made yesterday
Man you gotta respect the fact that you just opened up a can that is decades older than we are and has lasted that long literal food uneaten survived being thrown away or eaten , if these cans could talk they need more than we have man shit is wild to think about
I still have a General Electric model EC5L can open with knife sharpener. It was my moms. I remember hearing the sound of it when I was a kid. Bring back memories of the 70's and my mom every time I use it!
"there's gonna be a giant hiss" *pop* 'xsh..' *stopped* "this can is so messed up" "there we go!" *continue cutting* 'sshHHH..' *opened* "so this is suppose to be.. Black Eye Peas." 'den~.. den~ den~ den~ den~'
through state of the art analytical chemistry, x-ray imaging, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and conclusions drawn from recent advances in quantum electrodynamics, the scientists were able to conclusively determine that the food was in fact rotten as all fuck
These are the videos I love. People curious about something simple like what 50+ year old canned food looks like and then just simply opening them and dumping them in a bin. Thanks for sharing! Really interesting to see!
"- Buckman! This can has expired in 1970! - It's still a good maize paste. - Just it happens to be cooked pork, Buckman!" - or so i remember the quote.
