Conagra Brands Inc. has recalled approximately 2.58 million pounds of canned meat and poultry products due to a packaging defect that may cause the products to become contaminated without showing any outward signs of contamination, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service announced in a press release.

The meat and poultry products were produced between Dec. 12, 2022, and Jan. 13, 2023. The products are listed on the agency website.

The products subject to recall bear establishment number "P4247" on the product cans and were shipped to retail locations nationwide.

The problem was discovered when an establishment notified FSIS after observing spoiled and/or leaking cans from multiple production dates at the establishment's warehouse.

Subsequent investigation determined that the cans subject to recall may have been damaged in a manner that is not readily apparent to consumers which may allow foodborne pathogens to enter the cans.
