Short version: Tinned food needs a can opener before you can eat it; without one the game tells you so. The other way is the Spoon game pass (499 Robux), which puts a spoon in hotbar slot 1 each match and lets you eat tins without an opener. Once a portion is open, hold F to eat it.
Can Opener at a glance

| Spoon pass | 499 Robux |
| Eat | Hold F while holding a portion |
| Example tins | Tinned Tomatoes (2 portions), Tinned Corn |
| Where the opener is | Not seen at a fixed spot |
Keep it with your tins
The pantry counter on Night 0 counts portions, tins included, so a missing opener quietly cuts what you can actually eat. Gather the tins and the opener together.
We haven't seen where the can opener sits in the apartment; the footage shows players using tins but not the search for the opener.
Tips
- Keep a can opener with your tins, or the food is useless.
- The Spoon is optional; none of the 10 passes is needed to finish.
