This does look like fun, and again something the kids might enjoy. I'm trying to think what you'd use these days for a can because it's not going to be an old timey coffee can. Camping equipment? If you're doing individual portions, any appropriately sized bakeware or even glass/Pyrex bowls would work.
And don't forget to explain to the kids who hobos are. Tell 'em about The Boxcar Children while you're at it!
Very good for picnics on beach. While you're having fun, food can cook with no attention. Food can be put in cans at home and be ready to cook when you get there. Servings are prepared in individual cans, with each person selecting his own combination of vegetables.
