Is it safe to eat beans out of the can?

Question

What do they taste like?

What about the western bean things in the can?

Its black and yellow...

Answer 1

The "tin can" as it was once so obviously called, is no longer tin but, plastic, coated aluminum, resin and coated tin. It was once unhealthy to eat out of the can due to the spoon or fork scraping the sides and bringing small but, sharp particles of the can or, tin into the system.
Now, however, there is no fear of this happening and you may, if you want, eat out of the can however this is considered impolite and ill mannered.

At one time G.I.'s were eating out of these tin cans for years on the battlefield.
