Op, where are you at? I've never seen these OR the aluminum push tabs you mentioned
The push tab is what's common on aluminum cans for the last several decades. The 70s had the pull tab style cans.
Ok, so "pull tabs"are what you see on like cans of SPAM?

Pull tabs were mostly phased out when I was a kid but these were still around.
I feel like I've only ever seen Donald Duck OJ as part of a cheap hotel's complimentary breakfast! 😆
I remember foil tabs like those on a few things, but I was born a smidge too late for "pop tops," which pulled off the same way, but were as thick as the to of the can. People supposedly just tossed the little shrapnel pieces everywhere for people to get poked with. Hence the switch to a tab that stayed connected to the can.
I understand that stepping on one could blow out your flip flop.
Sounds like a euphemism.
Lol yes, they will always live on thanks to that reference!
I remember Jumex always had that foil pull tab.
Huh, I guess these were just a hair before my time
Just got back from England and Scotland and virtually every plastic bottle had these. It was the first time I've ever seen them before too (I live in the US)
I know UK and Norway are like this.
EU. They mandated because of some recycling reason that doesn't make much sense.
