    BPA in your canned foods: Soup to avoid this cold and flu season

    A disturbing study by Consumer Reports revealed the presence of the chemical Bisphenol A (BPA) in nearly all of the name-brand canned foods recently tested in their labs, including some that were labeled "BPA-free" and others labeled "organic."

    Thanks for the tip off Jazzy. I never ever use any soup other than home made for these exact reasons. There was a Kerfuffle here not long ago where It seemed some food claiming to be Organic, were infact not.

    The food might well be BPA free - it the canning that's likely to have added it :-

    Epoxy resins containing bisphenol A are used as coatings on the inside of almost all food and beverage cans
