Not a good idea unless the insides of the canisters are polished. The manufacturer does not finish the insides of these and the resin easily rubs off. This is also why putting your “tobacco” in them is as you will be ingesting plastic.

Even polished, since it’s food-grade plastic, you can probably expect some amount of chemicals to leach into the pepper.

Oh, ok, they are in a “new context,” making them worth $35….Right. This wasn’t new to my father in the 1970’s when he was an Outward Bound instructor.

Not to mention the chemicals from the film itself — there’s gotta be residue from that…

They’re not food grade plastic. It’s a bad idea to ingest anything stored in them.
$35!?! I hope this was a paid product placement.

Many years ago I was a scout and they told us NOT to use these containers for food as the film leaves some nasty chemicals in the container that cannot be washed out. Don’t do it. This was even noted in an issue of Boy’s Life magazine. Get yourself some of those vintage hula girl shakers instead.

Yowza! As if salt isn’t bad enough for your health, there’s chemicals to contend with if you use film canisters to store food!
@Mary Bon #6, no it wasn’t a paid product placement on Neatorama. Those are disclosed. From time to time, I do blog about neat products that I run across the web.

Too bad that they seem to be a health hazard…, as a photographer I love the idea.
