Another dish learned from my time at sea, are 'silver dollar' hash cakes. Corned beef hash shaped into fat circles, dusted with a bit of flour fried in shallow oil and butter, with a nice runny fried egg on top. A more adventurous dish is Penalcaty which is a Geordie/Maccum dish.
But in answering the OP, i have to agree, the tin can be a bit tricky to open.
