Abstract: An apparatus for draining a fluid from a can of food includes a first and second member that are pivotally attached about a common pivot axis. The first member includes a cylinder having a closed bottom and open top that is disposed proximate the pivot axis. The first member extends away from the pivot axis and includes a first handle that is distally disposed from the pivot axis. The second member includes an arcuate portion disposed above the cylinder and a third member that is pivotally attached at one end to the center of the arcuate portion. A grate is attached to the remaining end of the third member. The second member continues to extend from the arcuate portion and includes a second handle at a distal end thereof. When an opened can of food is placed in the cylinder and the first and second handles are urged together, the grate bears upon the food in the can forcing the food to the bottom of the can and displacing the fluid therefrom.
