"It's crucial that you always check to make sure the can is intact and its contents haven't spoiled. If you do eat spoiled food from a can, you're in danger of contracting botulism."
"Botulism is very rare, especially in professionally canned foods. Meanwhile, canning your own food has a lot of benefits, but it also opens the door to more mistakes - so take extra caution."
Recent food recalls have highlighted the importance of food safety, especially regarding canned goods. While canned foods are convenient and long-lasting, they can spoil and pose health risks, such as botulism. Signs of spoilage include gas buildup, indicated by a hiss or liquid upon opening. Although botulism is rare in professionally canned foods, caution is necessary with home-canning practices. It's essential to check cans for integrity to avoid consuming spoiled food, which can lead to severe health consequences.
