KNOXVILLE, Tenn., July 22, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Bush Brothers &
Company is voluntarily recalling certain 28 ounce cans of Brown
Sugar Hickory Baked Beans, Country Style Baked Beans and Original
Baked Beans because cans may have defective side seams. These
side seam defects may affect can integrity and may cause the cans
to leak or allow for harmful bacteria to grow inside the
product. Bush Brothers found the issue as part of their quality
control inspections.
The recalled products were distributed nationwide in retail
stores.
This event only affects the flavors and lot codes below. Lot
codes are printed on the bottom of the can.

quality issue from Bush's® can supplier. The problem was corrected
and no other product is affected.
