They came both, in the same time. If you have a Can, how to open it, but if you have a Can Opener what to do with it if the can is not invented yet.

The can, if the can opener had been first, it wouldn't have had a use, now would it? What's a can opener without a can?

I had to laugh when I read your question. Soooo funny. But in all seriousness the can came first, then the opener.

Actually, the can was invented several DECADES before the can opener!

This is among the many useless facts I have rattling around in my head.
