I bought a pint of Talenti gelato today, salted caramel
to be exact.  Wrestle, wrestle, wrestle with the lid.
Get a firm grip on the container and wrestle some more,
won't budge.  Try once more, not moving, temple veins
are bulging.  I've got one of those OXO jar openers that
wouldn't budge that top so I resorted to an awl.  Pry,
pry, pry and FINALLY it goes flying across the room and
it seems Talenti knows they have a problem with these lids.
Their suggestion was to run it under hot water, good grief.

I've never eaten gelato. Apparently, it's kind of like ice cream.
I would have suggested the hot water and hard tapping on the lid-edge
approach for anything other than that type of food.

I just looked at the website. Perhaps, a quick dash of hot water would
release the freeze. Real quick!
