Target Recalls Birds Eye Steamfresh Green Beans Due to Temperature Issues

Target is recalling 10.8 oz. Birds Eye Steamfresh Whole Green Beans sold in Hawaii because a shipping container was not held at the proper temperature, potentially allowing contamination.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text does not report any illnesses or injuries, and the hazard is described as a potential for contamination due to temperature abuse rather than a confirmed high-risk pathogen outbreak.

Plain-English summary

Target Corporation is recalling 10.8 oz. Birds Eye Steamfresh Whole Green Beans (UPC: 14500021571, Target item number: 270-0-92). The recall involves 2,652 retail units purchased at Target store T2780 in Honolulu, Hawaii, between March 23 and March 27, 2018.

The recall was initiated because a shipping container transporting the product from California to Hawaii was not held at the proper temperature. This temperature failure could have allowed the food items to become contaminated with spoilage organisms or pathogens.

Consumers who purchased these specific green beans at the identified Target store in Hawaii during the specified dates should stop consuming the product. The source text does not specify a particular action for disposal or return, but standard recall procedures generally advise discarding the item or returning it to the point of purchase.
