Where these two actually differ
- We flag Aluminum leaching from acidic foods on the Sam's Club and not on the US Foods.
- We flag Grease-resistant coating composition (non-PFAS additives) and Kraft paper degradation and microbial growth (storage/handling) on the US Foods and not on the Sam's Club.
- The Sam's Club is Aluminum foil where the US Foods is Kraft paper with PE coating, grease-resistant treatment, 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.
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 →
