In their December 2009 magazine, Consumer Reports details the testing they did on dozens and dozens of food products contained in cans including soups, vegatables, and fish. Products tested included many made by well-known manufacturers like Campbell's, Chef Boyardee, Del Monte, Nestlé, and Progresso.

Using external laboratories, Consumer Reports tested food products for BPA and found that most contained some measurable amount of BPA and many contained levels that were above the maximum recommended daily exposure amount.

According to Consumer Reports, "the highest levels of BPA were found in the canned green beans and canned soup. In Progresso Vegetable Soup, the levels of BPA ranged from 67 to 134 ppb. In Campbell's Condensed Chicken Noodle Soup, the levels of BPA ranged from 54.5 to 102 ppb. Canned Del Monte Fresh Cut Green Beans Blue Lake had BPA levels ranging from 35.9 ppb to 191 ppb, the highest amount for a single sample in our test."
