Split double seam section?

It has been suggested that the section on double seams be split. I oppose splitting the content. This article currently has a link to the main page on double seams. It is correct now. There is some content here and more in the linked main article. No further split is justified. Pkgx (talk) 15:11, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

OK, but there was a little issue to fix in 2023. It's "a can", not some particular can hand-crafted in 1888. Inventing =/= crafting, as patent bureau wouldn't demand a materialized item for one's invention (in most cases). 81.89.66.133 (talk) 07:54, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

etymology

did the term drive from canister? 84.71.208.1 (talk) 00:57, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

In popular culture

Instead of mentioning canned food stashes in "zombie horror" movies, or a bunker in 1998 Blast from the Past movie, we got a 1956 documentary as a "popular culture" reference. And my edits on the movie have just been reverted as some "unnecessary trivia". 81.89.66.133 (talk) 07:25, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

Added a movie from 2007 because its plot revolves around canned stuff. 81.89.66.133 (talk) 07:55, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

I removed the section because it is unnecessary for such a ubiquitous topic such as canned food to have a list of times it is referenced in popular culture. Angryapathy (talk) 14:14, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

Agreed 100 percent with removal of the section. Julietdeltalima (talk) 15:44, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

Indeed, that's... laconic kind of good deed. Thanks. 81.89.66.133 (talk) 06:46, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

Cold pack canning

1919 illustration showing cold pack canning on the gas laundry stove (Laundry stoves also lack an article, but seem less significant).

There is apparently a technique called "cold pack canning". Right now it isn't mentioned anywhere in the article, nor elsewhere in Wikipedia. Probably should be here, based on a large number of Google hits. - Jmabel | Talk 02:19, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

It seems to involve putting cold food in and doing the cooking in the can (during the sterilization step). The USDA has a comparison page: https://www.nal.usda.gov/exhibits/ipd/canning/exhibits/show/techniques/cold-raw Artoria2e5 🌉 05:35, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
