   Published on Environmental Working Group ( http://www.ewg.org ) Bisphenol A: Toxic Plastics Chemical in Canned Food Published March 5, 2007 Bisphenol A: Toxic Plastics Chemical in Canned Food A Survey of Bisphenol A in U.S. Canned Foods March 5, 2007 Summary. Independent laboratory tests found a toxic food-can lining ingredient associated with birth defects of the male and female reproductive systems in over half of 97 cans of name-brand fruit, vegetables, soda, and other commonly eaten canned goods. The study was spearheaded by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) and targeted the chemical bisphenol A (BPA), a plastic and resin ingredient used to line metal food and drink cans. There are no government safety standards limiting the amount of BPA in canned food.
