Or, if you're the patient sort, buy a few cans every year. About five
or ten years down the road, the first ones you bought should have
reached that state on their own.

(Just opened a 6 year old tin of SCM for my coffee - it was darkened and
thick. The longer it sits, the better. :-))

I had that happen to me once. I don't use much SCM and when I opened an old
can it was dark. I threw it away thinking it was spoiled!

All this talk now has me wanting to open the can that's been sitting in my cupboard for
years and years (I think it got bought by mistake, probably by my spouse who thought he
was buying evaporated milk).

And you don't even live in a warm climate! Imagine how quickly that
