Detailed explanation-1: -It Really Depends on the Dent This can be problematic if it is in the seam of the can, as it can allow the bacteria to enter the can and potentially make someone sick, ‘’ she says. So, if your can has a dent in the seam, it’s worth tossing in order to protect your health. If there isn’t much damage, you should be okay.
Detailed explanation-2: -Discard: Deeply dented cans. If you can lay your finger in the dent, that’s too deep. It’s better to be safe and discard or return the can.
Detailed explanation-3: -The risk is very small because usually dents do not produce holes. Dented cans do not necessarily have to be thrown out but their contents should be boiled to kill any microbes and destroy any toxin that could have been produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacteria.
