Pumps' Perplexities

Last July I "blogged" the subject of the "formed" tin can
which can not be opened with a can opener at its bottom....
This style can prevents the contents from being pushed
out or "extruded" by opening both ends of the can.....

Well and answer has been found as to why some
manufacturers have decided to use this new style can.....

Agreed that the can is easier to stack and prevent denting
if they should fall, but the main reason for the design
change is the fact that the cans are 20% less to
manufacture......

I guess it is a fair trade off.....Otherwise the cans would
get smaller and have less contents, in order to same the
20%......(But I expect that to will happen next)....Pumps
