“Conagra Canned Meat/Poultry Recall: Possible Packaging Defect Causes Hidden Contamination.” GovInfoNow, updated October 6, 2026. https://govinfonow.com/recall/1275056-conagra-canned-meat-poultry-recall-possible-packaging-defect-causes-hidden. Based on USDA FSIS recall #003-2023 (https://www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls-alerts/conagra-brands-recalls-canned-meat-and-poultry-products-due-possible-packaging).

Why it’s dangerous

The packaging defect may allow bacteria to enter the cans without visible signs of spoilage. This could happen when the cans are damaged in a way that's not obvious to consumers, potentially leading to foodborne illness if the product is consumed.

Who’s affected

Anyone who purchased these products between December 2022 and January 2023. People with compromised immune systems or those who eat raw meat/poultry are at higher risk of foodborne illness.

How to tell if you have this one

Check for establishment number 'P4247' on the product cans. These products were made between December 12, 2022, and January 13, 2023, and shipped nationwide.
