Title: Future Essentials cans do not come with a plastic lid.
Post by: Mr Mannn on August 19, 2012, 12:40:23 PM
Is there a place you can buy lids for that size can? Is it a coffee can?
It would be nice to reseal it once I open it.

If you don't find any, you may have that million dollar invention idea on your hands.

When I don't finish the contents in a can of foodstuff , I go low-tech. Saran Wrap and a rubberband / kitchen twine.

That said - once you open a can , you're best off to use it up in a couple of days else it may spoil.

Well there's that.  How big is the can?  Is it really coffee can size?  You could always transfer it to something that sealed up.  Or get a food saver.

Great. Now I have to invest in Tupperware to survive the zombie apocalypse...
