Over 170 cases of green beans are being recalled because the canning company believes they're tainted with a botulism-causing bacteria. If you consume GFS Fancy Blue Lake Cut Green Beans, then you may want to check for lot code 19H7FL. The produce was distributed to 11 states: Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.

The FDA and company are working together to try and figure out how this happened. Hopefully consumers can spread the word before someone gets hurt. Botulism is scary -- it only takes one microgram of toxin to be lethal to human. Of the average yearly reported botulism cases, a quarter of them are foodborne.
