What he said, and if you're still worried, use an odor proof sack...just make sure to keep it clean and seal it as described

Good evening, Kim,

The only place where a ‘can, or another bear-resistant measure, is
advisable is in the Sierra.  Where bears are hunted, e.g. Oregon, they
learn to keep a low profile around people.
