Food packaging is a primary route of chemical exposure. BPA, phthalates, PFAS, and microplastics migrate from packaging into food — especially when heated, acidic, or fatty foods are involved. The FDA has approved thousands of food contact substances with limited long-term safety testing.
Why We Recommend This Product
Eden Organic pioneered BPA-free canned food in the US. Their oleoresin lining is a plant-based alternative to the BPA-containing epoxy used by most canned food brands. A simple, important swap for a pantry staple.
