Caveat on canned goods: avoid bloated cans if they contain any meat. Bloated fruit cans contain alcohol.

    Oh yeah, good point, avoid any cans that look bent, dented or expanded.

    Are dented cans a concern? I thought it just meant someone dropped them

    So you're saying bloated fruit cans are the ones to look for? Got it, thanks!

  • Provided the seals are intact, it's unlikely they contain anything worse than alcohol.

    If they contain any meat at all, assume they're a biohazard.

    But good luck finding them at all. Most places that sell canned food have compactors nowadays, and it's been that way for some time.
