Japanese navy's WWII canned rice found in near-perfect condition

Hayato Kurokawa, an expert in canned goods, shows a can of "sekihan" red bean rice made over 70 years ago during World War II for the Imperial Japanese Navy on July 30, 2015, in Tonosho on Shodo-shima island, Kagawa Prefecture, western Japan. The rice appeared to be in near-perfect condition when he opened it at a former soy sauce shop's warehouse in the town. A total of 17 such cans were discovered in 2011 and were possibly preserved for the navy's special attack unit that had a base nearby during wartime. (Kyodo) ==Kyodo
