Funny Story....I really surprised some of my co workers yesterday...We were having an Ocho de mayo party because we could not find an open room until then. A Costco jar of pickled jalapenos would not open. I tried, a lady tried and others were saying to bang it on the table. Then they wanted to pop the lid off with a can opener. I said no, I know a better way and picked up my paring knife and popped a hole in the top.

There were gasps around the table and some saying does that work? Of course it works! I explained that popping the hole breaks the vacuum and the lid comes right off. You then put a piece of tape over the hole so that the lid works.

I guess you really cannot take the farm kid out just because you go to the City.....
