Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Aluminum leaching (acidic food contact), Grease-resistant coating composition (undisclosed) and Coating degradation and flaking on the Sam's Club and not on the Sam's Club.
  • We flag Aluminum leaching from acidic foods on the Sam's Club and not on the Sam's Club.
  • The Sam's Club is aluminum foil with grease-resistant coating where the Sam's Club is Aluminum foil, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 45 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Sam's Club is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Sam's Club grade, at 35% confidence against 82%, because it discloses less.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
