Refers to where you open a can of soup or fish wif a can opener even though said tasty-comestibles container has a built-in pull-tab.
Employing da "redundant can-opener usage" action isn't necessarily always a silly or time/effort-wasting operation --- it eliminates da hazardously-sharp torn-metal edge, and thus it can enable you to more-safely empty out da can's contents without risking cutting yourself (great for if you're having young and therefore-more-easily-injured children helping you prepare da meal), plus it allows you to more-thoroughly clean out da can instead of wastefully leaving a ring of perfectly-edible food inside da slightly-encroaching-into-da-can's-interior rim of da can.
