Euwwwwwwww! Water in CCCS?!? :eek: Only if it’s followed by a healthy dose of full-fat evaporated milk! And a knob of butter. And maybe a gob of 20% sour cream.

I’d eat CCNS out of the can too, but it’s too salty. And I suspect the low-sodium variety is really bland.

Pretty much just fruit, now that pudding comes in those dum plastic tubs instead.

Nuts too, I guess, but mostly get those in jars.
