Questions for those who use water chestnuts. Is it ok to sample them from a can before they get to the wok? Basically will I die? I may have eaten 1/4 can.

All food in cans is cooked and sterilized so should be fine to eat straight from the can. There are few riskier foods in general than fish which we eat straight from the can all the time without a second thought, so water chestnuts should not worry you at all.

Not unless you’d die from the same can cooked.
Time will tell.
