Avoid Dented or Bulging Cans
A little ding or dent may not be a big deal on your canned goods but if you notice a big dent, that your can is bulging or if the contents of the can spurt out when opening it get rid of it! These are all signs of botulism, a potentially deadly form of food poisoning. For more information on botulism check out: cdc.gov/botulism/botulism_faq.htm
