I asked my local tyre place about those repair can things and they have stuff they spray on which removes the goo quite well once the tyre is off the wheel. The whole repair just takes longer which is sometimes a pain if they are busy.
I carry all three - a can, a spare and an RAC card. Given my first car was 1680 lb and my current one is almost 800 lb more the weight I save is not worth the hassle.
I'm also the same size I was in college. Unfortunately I was a fat bugger then too.
