A quick straw poll of the iVillage office reveals we’ve all been opening Milo the wrong way…. our entire lives.
Quick question: Are you a stabber?

A quick straw poll of the iVillage office reveals we’re all stabbers – and apparently that means we’ve been opening our Milo the wrong way our entire lives.
According to this video, you’re supposed to gently ease the foil away from the edge of the tin with a spoon, before simply lifting it off. Much more civilised, right?
