What is this? Some corn cans may have a small welding problem. This means the can might not be fully sealed.

What's happening? Italy found this issue in some corn cans. The cans are still safe to use, but the seal is not perfect.

Does this affect me? If you have corn cans from Italy, check the seal. This is mostly for people in Italy.

What should I do? Look at the can before opening. If the seal looks broken, ask your pharmacist or doctor for advice.
