Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I got news for you about modern cans if you're trying to avoid plastic. They're lined with, you guessed it, plastic.

How much plastic? Not nearly the same amount and the bulk of the packaging is recyclable.

Not sure if the concern was based on recyclability or consumption of microplastics. If the concern is about waste, then they should be using a reusable container instead.
