There's nothing more fear-inducing than realizing that the humble can of green beans sitting in your pantry is filled with potential hazards like bacteria or some sort of foreign material. Canned goods are meant to be quick and easy alternatives to having to prep things from scratch, and at the very least, they should be safe. The truth is, though, canned goods aren't always the unassuming, ready-to-go, quick and easy dinner time fixes they're painted to be.

Depending on the type of canned goods you buy, some have liners that consist of BPA, and we're sure everyone has heard about the small percentage of rodent excrement allowed in certain canned goods. It's safe to say that you should always tread with caution. Don't get us wrong, we're not hating on canned goods by any means, just a reminder that things aren't always what they seem. Unfortunately, that means the onus is on us as consumers to stay abreast of any recalls or potential risks, and the latest might make you double-check that can of beef stew you bought for a rainy day.Popular prepared food maker, Hormel, issued a recall affecting over 256,000 pounds of canned 'Dinty Moore Beef Stew' nationwide due to potential contamination with wood fragments.

USDA Announces Recall of Over 15,000 Pounds of Beef Jerky Due To Undeclared Allergen
On June 3, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced that Utah-based Springville Meat & Cold Storage Co., Inc., is voluntarily recalling 15,388 pounds of beef jerky and beef snack sticks, as well as elk, venison, and buffalo jerky products because of misbranding and undeclared allergens. The heat-treated, shelf-stable, ready-to-eat products contain fish, a known allergen that was not declared on the product labels. The issue was discovered during production monitoring by FSIS inspectors, revealing that the new Worcestershire sauce used in certain jerky and snack stick products contained anchovies. The company previously used Worcestershire sauce without this addition. The affected products were produced between May 30, 2023, and May 30, 2025, and were sold nationwide to retail locations under various brand names, including but not limited to: Uncommon Ground, Papa Rays, Spear, Dry Lakes Ranch, Smokehouse Jerky Company, Twisselman, Wild Green Water Ranch, Mr. Bills, Nut Garden, Prospector John's, John & Doug's, Knotts & Co., Killer, Miguel's, Big D's, Bear's, Bubba's, Soldier Summit, Theurer's Quality Meats, and TX Jerky Man. The recalled products bear the establishment number "EST. 20528" inside the USDA mark of inspection. A full list of labels, varieties, and lot codes can be found through the FSIS links: Label Part 1 Label Part 2 Label Part 3 Label Part 4 Label Part 5 Lot Numbers According to FSIS, there have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions from these products. However, FSIS is concerned that some products may be in consumers' pantries. Anyone who has these products is urged not to consume them and to return them to the original place of purchase. Anyone concerned about adverse reactions or illness related to this recall should contact a healthcare provider.
