After some customers complained, the Campbell Soup Company discovered that the red plastic lining of cans of Original flavor SpaghettiOs has peeled off, ending up in the tomato sauce and posing a choking hazard. The recall includes 355,000 cans, which seems like a massive amount, but is quite small compared to the total number of SpaghettiOs cans sold nationwide.
What should you look for in your pantry? Affected cans will have the date February 22, 2017 stamped on the bottom lid. Since canned pasta rings come in so many sizes and configurations, note that the affected product are 14.2 ounce cans of plain SpaghettiOs. The UPC number is 51000 22432.
If you find affected cans, return them to the store where they were purchased. If that isn’t possible, or if you have other questions or concerns, contact the company’s recall hotline at 1-866-535-3774.
If the affected cans are 14.2 ounces, that means they’re from a batch canned before the company shrank cans down to an even 14 ounces this year.
