To be fair this is a good idea underdeveloped countries as canned drinks in storage are usually contaminated externally with rat shit.

This is true of warehouses everywhere, not just ones in underdeveloped countries. Developed countries just usually have a higher turnover and distribution closer to production sources, so they sit in storage for less time.

Do you drink the soda by pouring it over its outer hide?

Do you drink the soda with gloves and by holding it 5 cm from your lips? Exactly like this you also don't just clean the upside of a dish or the usable part of knives, forks etc.
