DENVER—A Wisconsin company is voluntarily recalling 14.5-ounce cans of French Style Green Beans that were canned under various labels and distributed in several states, including Colorado.
Lakeside Foods of Manitowoc, Wisconsin said some of the beans may have been under-processed, and some cans may have leaked. Officials are concerned some of the cans could be contaminated with organisms including Clostridium botulinum, which causes botulism.
The beans were sold under labels including Albertsons, Best Choice, Kroger and IGA.
No illnesses have been reported.
Colorado Department of Health and Environment consumer protection specialist Patricia Klocker says consumers who have the affected green beans should return it unopened to the place of purchase.
The affected beans carry one of the following codes on the top of the can: EAA5247, EAA5257, EAA267, EAA5277, EAB5247, EAB5257, ECA 5207, ECA5217, ECA5227, ECA5297, ECB5207, ECB5217, ECB5227 and ECB5307.
