Steel cans have a plastic liner (acrylic and a polyester, usually.) Reusable glass with bottle deposit is probably the way to go.

- dragontamer 7y agoThe amount of plastic liner in steel cans is minuscule compared to plastic-packaging. And since its bonded to the Steel, you don't have to worry about disposal issues (ex: bags getting stuck in conveyor belts or whatever). > Reusable glass with bottle deposit is probably the way to go. I would bet that the lid on a glass bottle may have more plastic in it than a steel can, for example. But glass is definitely a highly-recyclable material. But you don't really find as much stuff in glass as in steel cans, and certainly not at the same prices. I can get 15oz of peas (or corn) in a steel can for roughly $0.70 for example. I don't think that sort of stuff comes that cheaply in glass containers.
