It won't be Covid that got me. It will be this:


Found it in the back of the cabinet. It expired in March. Of 2018. But it's canned, so it's probably still good.


There is this thing in Brazil where they just boil this stuff directly in the unopened can to make Dulce De Leche. Figured I'd give it a try. Tossed it in the pressure cooker for 25 minutes on max pressure.


My wife was very skeptical about putting a can into the pressure cooker. I didn't tell her about the expiration date. Why add to her stress with trivial things?


Let it cool for a couple hours in the fridge and then popped the top. Looks like Dulce de Leche. Consistency of pudding. Tastes pretty good, too. I ate some of it off the spoon, and mixed some of it with some coffee. Thinking I might use some of it on my toast tomorrow.


Stomach's a little jumpy right now, but I figure three tablespoons worth of sugar will do that to you. I will probably be fine.

Jim already has dibs on my guns.
