Can Opener



DID YOU KNOW? The can opener was invented 48 years after cans were introduced. The use of tin cans for food preservation was patented in 1810 by an Englishman named Peter Durand. The can opener, on the other hand, was invented 48 years later by Ezra Warner of Waterbury, Connecticut, U.S.A.
