It's cheaper to make cans with a main steel body and coat them with tin. Strength of steel and the corrosion resistance of tin.
No, food cans are made of steel, cans for nonacidic beverages are usually made of aluminum, cans for acidic beverages are made of steel. Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, sometimes with other elements (some steel alloys include some nickel, but these are usually specialty steels and should not be needed in cans).
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.
It is not recommended to store food in tin cans in the freezer as the expansion of food during freezing can cause the cans to bulge or burst. It is better to use freezer-safe containers or bags to store food in the freezer.
Food cans are typically made from aluminum or steel, which have melting points of around 660°C (1220°F) for aluminum and about 1370°C (2500°F) for steel. However, cans can warp or become structurally compromised at lower temperatures, especially around 200-300°C (392-572°F) when exposed to direct heat. It's important to avoid exposing food cans to high temperatures to prevent hazardous situations and maintain food safety.
If the tin layer on a tin can storing food were to crack, it could lead to the exposure of the underlying metal (usually steel) to the contents. This could potentially result in corrosion of the steel, contaminating the food and compromising its safety. It is advisable to discard the food if a tin can shows signs of damage.
Cans which are made from steel, are electroplated with tin. (This is safe for storing food)

They are used for storing food.
no
NO ITS NOT. Once the can is opened it is exposed to air and will oxidate and make food toxic. Storing opened cans wherever is not ok. you have to store product elsewhere and throw the can away.
tuna cans, like any food cans, are made from steel and tin
They're not - or not any more. When it was done (a century ago) it was to prevent the steel of the cans from rusting.

Vegetables, pet food, aerosol cans, fruit and fruit juices, seafoods, and baby food were all commonly packaged in steel cans.
A metal can is typically made of steel or aluminum. Steel cans are often used for food and beverage products, while aluminum cans are popular for beverages such as soda and beer due to their lightweight nature. Both materials are recyclable and widely used for packaging various products.

They are made from steel with a thin coating of tin to prevent corrosion.
