Dented food cans are not always bad and it does not always mean the food in the dented food can is bad or unsafe to eat.

As long as the dented food can is not leaking liquid out and there's no cuts in the can or rust on the can and the can is not swelling then it's safe to eat the food in the dented food can.

Some people believe that when a food can is dented that the food inside the dented can is unsafe to eat but that's not true.

As long as the dented food can is sealed and is not leaking or swelling out then the food in the dented can is still safe just like it would be if the food can was not dented.

I've bought dented food cans from a wholesale food store here for years and get a good savings on the food just because the food can is dented.

The food is safe to eat.

Just make sure the food can is not leaking, rusting or swelling and the food in the dented can is safe to eat.
