Canning is one of the oldest ways to preserve food, and currently one of the best ways to bring seafood from around the world to your plate. Most canned fish is prepared for the process by first brining in saltwater to draw out moisture and curb bacterial growth, followed by canning in oil or water. The high heat from canning kills the microbes in fish, but not every bacteria is removed in the canning process.

If you've ever wanted to sip on a minty mojito or energizing espresso martini without having to make one yourself, canned cocktails may be a worthwhile buy. As one of the latest trendy additions to appear in the supermarket's alcohol aisle, convenient ready-made refreshments are a saving grace for last-minute gatherings and late nights. Throwing a party and want to serve fancy drinks without taking on the role of a full-time bartender? Canned alcoholic beverages are easy to elevate and come in enough flavors to fill a drink menu, so you won't have a hard time finding a pre-mixed version of your preferred bar order. But besides choosing the best options and classing them up, there's another step you should always take when serving ready-to-drink cocktails.

Bonfires are one of the best ways to enjoy a chilly night. Plus, when you add a fun activity like making your own s'mores into the mix, it's the perfect way to bond with friends and family. Sure, you can sit around a fire all year long, but not everyone has the patience or space to deal with a fire pit. It can be dangerous, too, if you're unfamiliar with how to properly light it, manage it, and put it out. If you still want the fun and flavor of s'mores without the responsibility of fire, then you should turn to your air fryer for the next best thing.
