Vaporizing Linings: Wood fires burn at temperatures between 1,100°F and 2,000°F (600°C to 1,100°C).
This intense heat immediately burns the internal plastic lining, releasing highly toxic, carcinogenic fumes into the air you breathe.
Toxic Exterior Paint: Most cans have labels, inks, or clear protective plastics on the outside. Burning these materials releases hazardous chemical smoke.
Heavy Metal Vapor: Food cans are often plated with tin or chromium, and the seams may contain specialized solder. Extreme heat can vaporize these metals, creating a severe inhalation hazard.
What's even more concerning is that no one in the comments is mentioning that serious health issue. HONK HONK
