Faribault Foods: S&W and O Organics Canned Beans Recalled for Compromised Seals

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Faribault Foods has recalled approximately 1,859,283 cans of S&W and O Organics black beans and chili beans because the cans may have a compromised hermetic seal. This defect can cause the cans to leak, bloat, or allow the food inside to spoil prematurely. The affected products were distributed across 11 states and were sold in 15 oz. cans in both individual and multi-pack formats between 2020 and 2021. Consumers should return these products to the place of purchase for a full refund.

Risk

A compromised seal can allow air and bacteria into the can, leading to food spoilage and the potential growth of harmful pathogens which can cause foodborne illness if consumed.
