Right out of the can

[zelph]

Many times I open a can of soup/beans etc. and heat it's contents with an alcohol stove(DIY hobo).

Some of us do likewise....a few;)

Some may be concerned about the BPA contained in the can lining when it's heated. So I submit this information for general knowlwdge:

BPA in food can linings (http://www.bplite.com/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=5176&p=44515#p44515)

(http://www.bplite.com/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=5176).

Thanks...many different situations where this information might be useful.

" 80-100% of the total BPA present in the coating had migrated to foods directly after can processing "

That's all news to me. Fortunately I don't eat very much canned food. I wonder if sardines have the same lining?

Also, if it's in a can, it doesn't need to be heated. .. .

looks like wild planet sardines use BPA free cans, good news, they are some of my favorites!

I don't care about all the BPA's what about the melting liner that is now in your soup.Saw a fella do this on the job one year,and it had all this gelatins goopy stuff hanging off his spoon,this was about 15 years ago....so maybe things have changed?
