Thiel notes the 360 End can is designed to be environmentally friendly.

But yet all those removable lids on Spaghetti-O’s and canned ravioli products, canned soups, etc. are OK? Makes no sense…
People don’t use Spaghetti-O’s and canned ravioli products, canned soups, etc while outside of their homes. Beer/soda has a lot of use when not at home, and at many times the number of food products.
Are they legal? EPA put a law out about it.
