Metal Lids?

[Generalfiend]

I was just thinking about how all most all dip cans have metal lids, while most snus cans have plastic (correct me if im wrong on that) and was wonder why this is? what do you all think?

According to Swedish Match, metal lids are more likely to fall off, resulting in one's pocket being filled with snus. They switched to plastic lids in the 80s (I think) after numerous complaints.

I think metal cans or with cardboard are much more better looking than plastic cans. Examble Copenhagen cans. They're great. I don't like that everything nowadays is plastic. I hate it.

If I was going into a war zone with snus the Gotlands los cans and the Lucky Strike los would be at the top of my list.

In a war zone I'd prefer the Onyx Carbon can. Supposed to be able to stop a bullet.
