Your best bet for avoiding rust would be to use stainless steel containers. If that's not an option, look into anti-rust coatings for your containers. There should be a way to prevent oxygen from hitting the metal and causing the oxidation that is rust.

∙ 15y agoCans are metal containers for food, making food last longer than bags or frozen. This is because the food is not exposed to oxygen, making it decompose. Cans used to be made of lead, however people found out that food exposed to lead gave a person who consumed the food lead poisoning. Now cans are made of aluminum.

Explain why plastic containers are favoured to storing food?
While it is possible to store ice cream equally well in a metal or plastic container, plastic is better from the user's point of view. Metal transfers cold far better than plastic. Thus, it can become quite uncomfortable trying to hold onto a cold metal container. A cold plastic container is a poor conductor of cold. It does not make your hands hurt to carry it. A metal container has little give at the edges making it hard to scoop out the ice cream at the edges. A plastic container has more give at the edges. It is easier to get the ice cream at the edge of the container. It is easier to reattach a plastic lid on a container than a metal lid.

Does food stored in a metal container poison you?
Not necessarily Some foods have acid in them (like lemon, lime, tomatoes, etc.) and the acid may leach some metals out of metal containers. This is why lead is no longer used in cans used to store food. On the otherhand, tin, steel and aluminum have long histories of successful use in storing food. And, in any case, some metal storage containers are actually coated with lacquer on the inside to prevent food contacting the metal. Most users would not notice this interior coating. If you cook food in a cast iron pan, some of the iron in the pan will leach into the food. This doesn't poison you. It is actually good for you if you don't get enough iron from other food sources. Storing food in metal container can affect the taste of the food. That's why you should never cook acidic food in a copper pan, as copper is a poison.

Why is a plastic bucket better than a metal bucket?
It really depends on how the bucket is being used. If you use a bucket in cooking, for a container, it's better to use plastic as the base because metal has chemicals that are harmful to the human body if we eat it. For an example, eating something that came from metal is equivalent to scrapings of a coin; penny, dime, nickel, quarter, etc. For toxic wastes, it's better to use a metal container because the metal has a longer time to dissolve than the thin plastic. Basically, anything that would be dangerous to live near should be concealed in a metal container/bucket. However for a food product, the best way to cook is using a plastic or pyrex container.
