Conagra Brands is recalling approximately 2,581,816 pounds of canned meat and poultry products due to a packaging defect, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced Tuesday.

The defect may have caused the products to become contaminated without showing any outward signs of contamination, according to the USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS).

The meat and poultry products were produced between Dec. 12, 2022, and Jan. 13, 2023.

The products subject to recall bear establishment number “P4247” on the product cans. These items were shipped to retail locations nationwide.

Regulators discovered the problem when the establishment notified FSIS after observing spoiled and leaking cans from multiple production dates at the establishment’s warehouse.

There are no reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a health care provider.
