It has been suggested that the section on double seams be split. I oppose splitting the content. This article currently has a link to the main page on double seams. It is correct now. There is some content here and more in the linked main article. No further split is justified. Pkgx ( talk) 15:11, 25 January 2021 (UTC) reply

OK, but there was a little issue to fix in 2023. It's "a can", not some particular can hand-crafted in 1888. Inventing =/= crafting, as patent bureau wouldn't demand a materialized item for one's invention (in most cases). 81.89.66.133 ( talk) 07:54, 24 March 2023 (UTC) reply

did the term drive from canister? 84.71.208.1 ( talk) 00:57, 11 March 2023 (UTC) reply

Instead of mentioning canned food stashes in "zombie horror" movies, or a bunker in 1998 Blast from the Past movie, we got a 1956 documentary as a "popular culture" reference. And my edits on the movie have just been reverted as some "unnecessary trivia". 81.89.66.133 ( talk) 07:25, 24 March 2023 (UTC) reply

Added a movie from 2007 because its plot revolves around canned stuff. 81.89.66.133 ( talk) 07:55, 24 March 2023 (UTC) reply

I removed the section because it is unnecessary for such a ubiquitous topic such as canned food to have a list of times it is referenced in popular culture. Angryapathy ( talk) 14:14, 24 March 2023 (UTC) reply

Agreed 100 percent with removal of the section. Julietdeltalima (talk) 15:44, 24 March 2023 (UTC) reply

Indeed, that's... laconic kind of good deed. Thanks. 81.89.66.133 ( talk) 06:46, 27 March 2023 (UTC) reply

There is apparently a technique called "cold pack canning". Right now it isn't mentioned anywhere in the article, nor elsewhere in Wikipedia. Probably should be here, based on a large number of Google hits. - Jmabel | Talk 02:19, 22 June 2023 (UTC) reply

It seems to involve putting cold food in and doing the cooking in the can (during the sterilization step). The USDA has a comparison page: https://www.nal.usda.gov/exhibits/ipd/canning/exhibits/show/techniques/cold-raw Artoria 2e5 🌉 05:35, 17 October 2023 (UTC) reply
