# This discussion is also relevant to food packages that are made out of glass or metal, such as a can of soda or wine. Even according to those who are strict generally about disposable utensils, there are only reasons to be lenient to leave the food in the packages.<ref>Rav Ovadia Yosef in Yabia Omer YD 7:9:3 is strict generally regarding disposable utensils, nonetheless, he is lenient to use the packages made of metal or glass for storage. For example, liquor that comes in a glass bottle or a can of nuts which are made by non-Jews doesn't require tevilah immediately since one is only passively using the utensil (Maharil Diskin Kuntres Achron 136 s.v. vda). Furthermore, some say that one has intention not to buy the container but only the food inside (Mishna Halachot 4:107).</ref>
