The 12-ounce truncated Corned Beef cans are still the same today with the twist-key opening and two labels are available. These labels are specially die-cut to follow the contours of the truncated cans. The Donald Cook's label has a cutout for the opening tab, the Famous Flavor has no hole and the tab must be pressed through the paper.
