A cover for a tab top can having a top with a tab opener includes a body which is shaped and dimensioned to selectively cover the hole which is punched by the tab opener. The body has a channel which is shaped and dimensioned to receive the tab opener. Once the can is opened in the conventional manner, the cover is slidably installed on the tab opener. The cover and tab opener are then rotated until the cover covers the hole in the top of the can, thereby preventing both spilling and the unwanted entry of contamination. As desired, the cover may then be rotated away from the hole to dispense the contents of the can.
