Canned products are cooked in the can as part of the canning process. This means that they are always fully cooked in the sealed can and may be eaten straight from the can without the need for additional cooking. However, you can warm them up or use them as ingredient in your favourite cooking recipe.

Unopened canned products should be stored in a cool, dry place where they can last for rup to three years in your pantry unless the "best before" date says sooner.
Use a clean and rust-free can opener, or look for pull-tab cans, and wipe the top of a can before opening.
Do not store foods in opened cans in the refrigerator, instead, transfer unused contents to a safe storage container and place immediately in the refrigerator for up to four days.
