There are 3 cans containing different foods. Nuts in one can. Sliced Peaches in juices in another and the third can contains sliced oranges in juices. Someone has steamed off and switched the labels of all the cans so every can will have a label that is not the actual food inside it. Can you figure out which cans contain which foods without opening any?

I'd imagine you shake them to determine which one is the can of nuts, then you'd look for the other can with a fruit label on it (since the can of nuts would have one too).... whatever label is on the can of nuts corresponds to the other can, and the can you haven't dealt with yet is the other fruit in juice. Sorry if this sounds like crazy talk... I'm not very good at storytelling.
