Canned goods are a product that is convenient to use when time is short.

Therefore, almost every kitchen has an emergency supply of various types of supplies.

However, in reality, canned foods can pose a serious health risk to humans due to the risk of botulism.

Let's figure out which 3 signs you can't miss.

Signs of spoiled canned food

First of all, pay attention to the appearance of the cans. Small scratches and dents are not scary, but it is better to refuse products with deep dents.

No one can guarantee that the can was not damaged during the denting process and that pathogenic bacteria did not get inside the contents.

Secondly, rust on the surface of the can is also an alarming signal, as it makes the metal more vulnerable to various influences.

Thirdly, bulging jars are also dangerous to health. This indicates that there is excess air inside the jar and bacteria are growing inside.
