Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

And now they come in disposable plastic that's poisoning the entire biosphere. Progress!

This is why we need a plastic tax. If it was even slightly more expensive to use plastic they would switch back to metal or glass in a heartbeat.

You mean plastic coated tin for the metal option.

It's baby-food glass jars or plastic somewhere.

Correct. The steel cans are lined with plastic. Aluminum cans are as well for some products.
