Krasnoyarsk residents were advised how to choose safe canned food

Specialists from Krasnoyarsk Rospotrebnadzor told residents of the region how to choose the right canned food so as not to harm their health.

First of all, you must purchase canned food exclusively from authorized retail outlets.

When purchasing, carefully inspect the packaging. Discard canned goods that are damaged in any way, such as dents, scratches, chips, or rust. There should also be no swelling on the packaging. Be sure to pay attention to the production date and expiration date. Make sure the date of manufacture is permanently inked or stamped on the tin. It is better if the date of production of canned food from seasonal products corresponds to the harvest period.

“It is not safe to consume canned food from dented cans. If the can is damaged, the internal protective coating of the package is destroyed, which can lead to harmful substances from the packaging getting into the product itself. The accumulation of such substances in the body poses a serious threat to health. Avoid eating canned food if, after opening the can, you find rust or dark spots on the inner walls,” advised the regional Rospotrebnadzor.

Experts also added that if you feel unwell after eating canned food, you should immediately consult a doctor.
