Canned Peach Slices in Light Syrup or canned Peach Slices in… recall

Recalled by Sage Creek Inc · The Dalles, OR, United States

Class II — Moderate risk. May cause temporary or reversible harm; serious harm unlikely.

Why it was recalled

potentially under processed and reports of swollen and bursting cans as well as discoloring fruit soon after opening the can and the fruit is undercooked (too firm), from consumers.

These are failures of the safety steps that keep food safe - cooking, pasteurising, keeping cold, sealing - even when no contaminant has yet been found. All processing & sanitation problems recalls.

FDA's distribution note: Western US

Check the codes, then return or discard. Class II means eating it may cause temporary or reversible health problems. If your package matches the recalled codes, do not eat it - return it to the store or throw it away. FDA lists this recall as terminated: the company has finished removing the product, so it should no longer be on shelves - but it can still be in a freezer or pantry.
