SPC Australia Issues Recall of Potentially Explosive Tinned Tomatoes

A batch of Australian tinned tomatoes has been recalled for safety hazards.

SPC Australia has decided to pull out from supermarket shelves a batch of 400g SPC Ardmona whole peeled vine ripened tomatoes due to a packaging problem.

The company said that the increased pressure in the cans can cause it to be “potentially explosive”, which can cause injury to the customer.

In its message over Twitter, the company posted a recall along with their precautionary decision.

The affected products have the code TOM W/P 428580 007CM on the tin’s base, which are sold at Coles, Woolworths and IGA stores across the country.

Customers have been advised to dispose of the product and contact the company’s customer service for a full refund.

The company also apologised for any inconvenience this may have caused their customers.

SPC said the issue applied only to the packaging in one batch and there was no food-safety risk related to the product.

A company spokeswoman also said that “no other Ardmona products, or any other SPC products, are affected.”
