Target brand green beans recalled over unknown foreign object risk
Target’s brand of green beans have been recalled due to a foreign object contamination risk — and Pennsylvania is affected.
Del Monte Foods issued a voluntary recall last month for nearly 200,000 cans of the Target brand Good & Gather Cut Green Beans, Today reported. The cans affected are “Best if Used By 28 OCT 2026, Lot 7AA 418507.”
According to the Food and Drug Administration, the recall affects cans sold in Pennsylvania, Ohio and 19 other states: Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, Minnesota, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia and Wisconsin.
It’s unknown at this time what the foreign object is, as it’s not specified on the FDA’s report.
This Target recall was considered a Class II recall, which means exposure to a product “may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences,” or may indicate a situation in which “probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote,” Today reported.
