What happened, in plain English

Levi A. Bontrager is recalling 16-ounce glass jars of homemade corn salsa due to a pH level of 4.7. This could mean the product doesn't meet safe food storage standards, potentially leading to spoilage or food safety issues.

Why it’s dangerous

The salsa has a pH of 4.7, which is higher than the safe threshold for home-canned foods (typically below 4.6). This could allow harmful bacteria to grow, increasing the risk of food spoilage or foodborne illness.

Owners of the 16-ounce glass jars with 'BB 4 17 26' printed on the top are affected. People who consume this salsa may face food safety risks if it's not properly stored.
