Sometimes you want to make grandma's recipe and she wrote one can and isn't around anymore to ask questions about the size of the can.
But if you head over to c/cooking you will see you can't even use cans as a unit of measurement in most of the things I cook.
... 2 cans Ro-Tel tomatoes... https://texashighways.com/food-drink/ro-tel-origin-story-from-the-rio-grande-to-pantries-across-the-us/
I have one recipe in my collection that calls for Rotel. It's extremely unhealthy but so tasty and it wouldn't be too impacted by a change in can size. I make this do infrequently that every time I pick up a can I wonder if it's gotten smaller because it's already so small.
Highly recommend for anyone that is trying to gain weight.
