I used to dump canned veggies straight into the pot, but a coworker changed my mind

My coworker Jan saw me making chili last week and said 'you're wasting all that flavor, drain and rinse first.' I always figured the liquid added taste, but she showed me how it makes everything watery and salty. Tried it with a can of corn and a can of black beans for my tacos Tuesday night. Big difference, the texture is way better now. Anyone else have a basic canned food habit they had to unlearn?
