This week since time was a crunch and I needed beans I said f#%* it I am buying the cheapest beans I can find at Loblaws because I don't have time to make a second trip to the Big Carrot or cook them from dried. To my surprise when I opened my No Name brand canned romano beans the liner was clear; this got me thinking I wonder if they are BPA free...
I decided to send this email to Loblaws lets see if and what answer I get:
"I am enquiring to find out what kind of epoxy liner is used in your No Name brand canned beans such as the black beans, pinto beans, kidney beans and so on. I wanted to know if the tin can epoxy liner contained any BPA? Thank you for your time in answering this question."

Will be interesting to hear what they have to say. I am assuming that most No Name stuff from Loblaws contains BPA. Mind you, this study was done a few years ago and things could have changed.

did you ever receive a response? I opened a can of their diced tomatoes today and noticed the same thing, and I got pretty excited! I am very curious to learn what their response was.
Never did
Figures
