Botulism Responsible for Canned Bean Recall

The FDA on Friday has recognized the voluntary recall of canned green beans and garbanzo beans distributed by New Era Canning Co of Michigan due to the possibility of Clostridium botulinum contamination, which often leads to botulism. The recall is specifically for large 6.5 lb cans, and the FDA is urging consumers to use caution when disposing of these cans, as even a very small amount can lead to contamination.
Luckily, there have been no injuries so far!

ok…yuk…my kids love green beans…if we can’t trust what is fresh and we can’t trust what is bagged and now we can’t trust what is canned…there really isn’t anything left.
