Best Answer

The most notable is botulism, which is caused by a toxin produced by a soil bacterium, Clostridium botulinum.

This appears most frequently when commerical cans of food are rusted, dented or damaged, and in home canning. It is also found in honey. The normal cooking process may not destroy all of the spores.

Medically, botulinum toxin (botox) is used for deliberate muscle paralysis in cosmetic surgery.

Does canned pumpkin expire?

Most canned foods don't have an exact expiration date. Unless they were improperly canned, they are not degrading in the same way uncanned food does - but they will deteriorate in nutrition and quality. If the can has a best-by date on it, try to use it before then. If not, try to use it within a year of purchase. If home-canned, try to use it before the next harvest. As always, check canned goods for signs of spoilage before using them.
