What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan
My husband has long-term health concerns, and for almost a month, has been on liquids, and now can at least eat soup. As you can imagine, he is weak, and his imune system lacking.
I went to make him a can of Soup- the kind of can with a "pop-top".
As soon as the tab punctured the seal- the lid exploded off the can with a loud "crack" like a gunshot! My kids heard it at the other end of the house in their rooms and thought something had exploded in the microwave.
My ears were ringing, my head hurt and my hand (luckily NOT cut) was swollen and red where the lid exploded into my hand.
THAT is not my main concern.
The contents of the soup (miraculously un-spilled!?) were frothing and bubbling while the can sat on the kitchen counter!
The can had no bulges or dents- seemed perfectly normal.
The soup smelled 'normal"..but obviously is spoiled- most likely Botulism.
Had it NOT exploded- I would have fed it to my Husband, and most likely killed him!
What (if anything) is my recourse?
I did write the company, and kept screenshots of the email as well as sending them all the pertanant information.
What now?
Thanks for the help!
My ear is still ringing!
