主权项 1. A method of filling a can having a sidewall defining a can interior compartment, the method comprising the steps of: placing a product in the interior compartment; providing a can end having an outer periphery and a weakened portion extending around at least a portion of the can end radially inward from the outer periphery, a depression, and a well located between the depression and the weakened portion, the well including a sidewall, having a non-circular portion, and a bottom wall, the end being continuous; coupling the can end to the sidewall of the can thereby sealing the interior compartment of the can; heating the product in the can; providing a tab and a post, the post extending from the tab, the post having a non-circular cross-section and including a retaining feature distal from the tab; after putting the can through the heating step, placing the post in the well, coupling the tab to the can end, without the post passing through the can end, with the tab and the can end being rotationally fixed relative to one another.
