Yes it is! I emailed the company to ask because I wasn't sure, and they replied saying it's 100% BPA free.

When I searched BPA free and collapsible this model showed up... I assume that means it is BPA Free but I think I will call the manufacturer to confirm before I buy it

Perhaps you could contact the manufacturer to find out. It might say somewhere on the packaging but we threw that out a long time ago. I'm really not sure if its BPA free.

The container appears to be a metal can and no different than any other Olive Oil comes in...We are very happy with the flavor of this great Olive Oil. I could be wrong here but I believe BPA is only in Plastic. So the metal can should be free from BPA.

I've just checked the box. It does not mention whether it is or it isn't. There's no writing on the box to list ingredients , etc. When the box arrived there was no paperwork inside the box either. The outside of the box is really very plain and does not say much about the product. If I had encountered this in a store, I would have left it on the shelf. Unless you can contact the manufacturer you are not going to find out if it is BPA free. I'm sorry.

Don't know if it is BPA free. But it really works. We've purchased several as gifts. Recipients do have a confused look until they try it. Some are too intimidated. I'd say do not use it any more than you would eat mercury laden fish, if you are worried. The fish recommendation is not more than once a week. Or go back to your boiling pot of water and guess wrong as I do, one half the time about the taste of al dente. I get head slapped by my Italian mom, yes, about half the time when I used boiling water in a pot. and kissed on the cheek when I use Fast Pasta Cooker.

I really don't know if there is any Bisphenol A (BPA) in this product. However, one source that I found states: "If people and dogs have been exposed to BPA for the past 60 years without noticeable ill effects, then there is no need to worry about BPA in canned dog food until BPA is 100 percent linked to illnesses in dogs." HOWEVER, there are also other sources that 'speculate' that it may be harmful. If the manufacturer won't tell you then use your best judgment. As for me, I will allow my dog to continue using the bowl as I have seen no evidence of negative effects in this product after about 3 years.

I asked the same question before I bought it. I did see a small sign someplace saying it was BPA free. I like this bottle, It is handy to fold it away when packing space and weight is at a premium and when you don't want it leaking all over other stuff.

I just looked at mine. The plastic is not marked "BPA free" so it is my best guess that it is NOT BPA free. Hope this helps. BTY -ours is working fine and had it 4 months without a problem.

I just chatted with an Amazon customer service rep who checked their internal catalogs to confirm that IT IS BPA FREE! Hope this helps.

Printed on the label is a statement saying that the lining of the can is BPA free. Hope this helps! Enjoy!

I have no idea. It's plastic and not advertised as BPA free so I'm betting it's in there!

I don't know and I don't care if (CH3)2C(C6H4OH)2 is in the make up of a can or not! I wish I had that kind of time to WORRY about such. I'm more concerned about terrorist' attacks; a potential war with Syria; and idiots running around with guns! Let's not forget the psychopaths that kill people in theaters, and gun down innocent children! I wonder how many people in The Twin Towers on 9/11/01 avoided BPA like the plaque?

IT IS *NOT* BPA FREE. The label clearly states "Sans BPA Free". Look up the word 'sans' in the dictionary. It means 'without'. This container is 'without BPA free' which means it has BPA. That explains why people are getting funny tastes and why the guy in the comments said it had an oily film on the surface of the water. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!

You have a great product. They are hard because its just the cream without the extra junk like guar gum you get with the canned. I cut mine in half and reconstitue with boiling hot H2O. I cut it in half length wise so the calories are the same. If you look at it there is more "oil" on one end then the other. Your product is great ot go and except for the inconvienence I really like this better than the canned BPA stuff from the store.

I contacted the manufacturer, and they said that it was without BPA, but you know how THAT goes. They indicated that ALL of their "food handling/prep. items were without BPA...
