And cold baked beans. And mushy peas. I can't think of much I won't happily eat straight from the tin.

I read somewhere that improvements in canning has made this conventional wisdom mostly obsolete. After that I no longer avoided dented cans and I will even sometimes choose a lightly dented can because I know it will go to waste otherwise. And I feel sorry for it.
This is the best I could come up with on a quick Google search:
It’s okay to eat the food from dented cans...as long as the dent isn’t sharp enough to have pierced the can or isn’t on the seams that run down the side or around the top and bottom. But if the contents of a can (dented or not) spray when the lid seal is broken by the can opener, the food may harbor Clostridium botulinum—a bacterium that secretes the neurotoxin that causes botulism, a frequently fatal disease. Wipe up the sprayed contents immediately with a paper towel. Note any code or batch number that’s on the can before (carefully) throwing it in the trash. Use a disinfectant cleaner on the counter top and use a paper towel to wipe it up. Then report the incident to the manufacturer and to your local Health Department.

cold pizza is amazing if you eat it within the first day of getting it; afterward it's a bit too cardboardy. i've never tried eating cold canned stuff and never want to.

i like how we were clowning on latebloomer for eating cold condensed soup, and yet (until much later) let slide the INFINITELY more disgusting instance of a poster eating ass-lint.

...and yet... let slide ran from the thread in stark horror when confronted with the INFINITELY more disgusting instance of a poster eating ass-lint.

Mr. Jaq got staph poisoning from ice cream in the Bellagio a few years ago. I've never seen a sicker person, and it came on incredibly fast. Horrible stuff.
