Also from the New York Times:

"Lakeside Foods Inc. of Manitowoc, Wis., is recalling 15,000 cases of its 14.5-ounce French style green beans because some of the cans may have been under-processed and some may have leaked. This could have lead to the beans being contaminated with Clostridium botulinum, which causes botulism, a potentially fatal form of food poisoning. No illnesses have been reported, and no botulinum toxin has been found in any cans tested to date. The cans with the following code in the top line should be returned to place of purchase: EAA5247, EAA5257, EAA5267, EAA5277, EAB5247, EAB5257, ECA5207, ECA5217, ECA5227, ECA5297, ECB5207, ECB5217, ECB5227 and ECB5307. Details: by phone at 800-466-3834 ext. 4090; by Web at www.lakesidefoods.com."

That's the whole article and tells you everything you need to know - and I hope you don't need to know it.

Ewww. I was going to say, that Lakeside was in WI! Manitowoc is about 25 miles north of me! There is also a plant, about 20 minutes south, too.
