Green beans from 20 different states and over 15,000 cases have been recalled due to potential botulism toxins.So it sounds like it is time to clean out the food pantry to see if you have any of these potentially hazzardous green beans in your cabinets. Here is a link that will take you to a site that will give you all the info you may need like the states,names of the different beans and codes on the cans that is needed to identify the potentially toxic beans..

No illnesses have been reported as of yet and no botulism has been found in the canned beans..But better safe then sorry so go check..You could have the potentially toxic beans in your cabinet right now so go to this site rite down all the codes and be careful and check all the beans you have.. Keep your family safe. What next?

Woohoo! I don't have any of those brands. I will be passing this along though. i had not heard of it and wouldn't have if you had not posted it. I don't understand how they can not make a big deal over these recalls. Something needs to be done to safe guard our food!

I am giving all those in my family the codes on the green beans because we all like green beans alot. I had some of the brands but the codes didn't match Whew! I don't watch the news alot so I miss alot but lucky for me my hubby brought this to my attention after he heard it. upon doing more research on the matter I also found even more recalls I didn't know about like the wheat breads,eye solutions,and ginger and several others that might interest you. I was stunned speechless when I read of them..

not to be bossy or anything you need to go check these other items that have been recalled and bookmark the page for further updates to be able to go back and check occasionally. Hope this helps. thanks for the post I appreciate it.
