There isn't an empty container that matches those exactly. Although, I might make an optional version that makes e.g. Purified Water yield an Aluminum Can. It's not refillable, but it doesn't look like it could be properly sealed after consumption, so...
I know there's another mod that gives you a bottle back every time you drink something, and for water it just gives you a white bottle back. Not sure how you feel about that
Why not just work under the assumption they are resealable, after all, resealable paint cans exist in the game. It couldn't be all that hard to fold over a lip of metal considering the other feats of engineering we can pull off in-game.
My only issue with those is the disconnect in appearance. Pork n' Beans are smaller than a Tin Can, but Canned Dog Food is larger than both. Potato Crisps are closer to Purified Water. And I don't think there's anything like the container Cram's in. I might do an optional version, though.
Try to have a look at this mod Recycle - Give Me My Leftovers Back https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/26299 it uses formlists to check what junk item should be returned.
I assume you're referring to Stop Eating Scrap. I don't add any new empty containers or recipes, so this only covers items that have an exactly matching container. I also don't edit any items directly, so changes that come from other mods still apply. Also, thank you for bringing this mod to my attention.
