I don't know why. but it could be one of 3 reasons or any combination of them.1. steel cans make the shake heavier, so psychologically you think your eating a lot of food when in reality its only 11 ounces.
2. steel is far superior when it comes to shipping slimfast. because if it was in an aluminum can it would burst open (the mouth) it is was dented because of the density of the liquid and because the cans aren't pressurized like sodas.
3. The slimfast plant is in Arizona and they have a huge metal industry there they are ranked in the top 5 for copper ore almost every year they also have a huge Steel business too so. it might be more economical for slimfast to use the steel because it could be cheaper them aluminum.
