I just want portable water not in a plastic container. Also they’re like a buck fifty.

All aluminum cans have a plastic epoxy liner.

So enjoy.

Yes and it’s still infinitely recyclable, unlike plastic bottles. 70% of all aluminum ever produced is still in circulation thanks to how efficient aluminum recycling is, including epoxy lined cans.

So I will enjoy.

Does the liner contribute to microplastics in whatever is contained? Genuine question, that’d be a point against the epoxy liner. Of course any solution would have to include an effective replacement, so 🤷 Wax, maybe?
