Do you have Prince Albert in a Can?

The prompt, "Share something you learned embarrassingly late in life."

******************************

I really hoping I'm not the only one, but I seriously didn't understand the joke about having Prince Albert in a can until maybe two years ago.

When I heard it, I always thought of this Prince Albert:

In this kind of can:

And it just didn't make sense to me.

Finally I had had enough. I took a deep breath and admitted my great shame to Husband. Once he started breathing again from laughing at me so hard, he explained that the joke was about this:

Prince Albert Smoking Tobacco that comes...wait for it...in a can. Yeah. I'm an idiot. Now if someone could just explain to me why this is funny...
