WASHINGTON (AP) - Federal health officials warned consumers Wednesday to throw away certain cans of hot dog chili sauce after the product was linked to the first cases of botulism in commercially canned foods in decades. Four people were hospitalized. The warning applies to 10-ounce cans of Castleberry's, Austex and Kroger brands of hot dog chili sauce with "best by" dates from April 30, 2009, through May 22, 2009, the Food and Drug Administration said. It wasn't immediately clear how widely the products were distributed.

Who the devil is SO lazy that they can't make a fresh pepper salsa? Takes MAYBE 4 minutes, then jar it and age it a day or two in the fridge.
Or, use it immediately...just the flavour isn't quite as good right away.
But, no freaking botulism ever. A vinegar-based pepper sauce, decently sealed and refrigerated, stays perfectly good for at least a year, and likely 2 or 3.
Sheesh. CANNED chili sauce, forsooth. Gag me with a chemistry lab.
That canned kwap, yuck. ALSO, commercial ''chili powder'', barf.
Make your own, f'Heaven's sake. Far cheaper and FAR better flavour, chili sauce, chili salsa AND chili ''powder''.
Health warning.
Having been prescribed long long ago, the Kushreth is still remarkably ''common sense''. One or two parts of it are more ritual than common sense these days, but, from a dietary and food prep standard, the only bit of the Kushreth that's rather odd (these days) is the prohibition against serving dairy products (read, generally, cheese) along with meat products. This law had its origin in the days well before refrigeration, and is (perhaps) anachronistic today.
See post 43.
Well, actually, post 44. Goofed up, sorry.
There’s no reason to laugh at you. You’ve asked a perfectly legimate question.
I am by no means an expert on the subject. I suggest you check out “kosher” on a search engine like Google. Good luck.
You mean the rats would have died even if I hadn’t put the poison in it?!?
Watching out for poisoned food ping!
Thank you SAJ for the explaination; I appreciate it :)
How long has it be since you had a big, thick, steaming bowl of Wolf Brand Chili?
Well, that’s too long
Born in Corsicana, Texas, as I was...

And, yes, that tasty wang is the wolf meat!
thanks, bfl
Maybe toss in a chipotle as well.
Also, since we can get fresh, local buffalo meat cheap, well mix half ground buffalo & half with about 80%-lean burger.
Fortunately for me, my best friend's wife ''keeps Kosher'' as they say. She's been very generous in explaining the concept -- and, many of the rituals, which privately I think are a little bit silly. Example? Sure.
There are rules, for instance, against transporting otherwise Kosher food, meaning, in the practical world, that if I made a legitimately Kosher dish in her kitchen, that's OK, even though I'm a Gentile. If, contrarily, I made the very same dish with the very same ingredients and in the very same fashion in MY kitchen (with utensils and pots and such that are in accord with Kushreth), packaged it in sterile glass so as to avoid any contamination, and drove it over to her house to serve, then that dish would no longer be ''Kosher''.
It's a tricky business (trust me!...g!).

You know how careful I am!
Just wanted you to see the brands.
.
Castleberry & Kroger brands sell here
I add chili over beef hotdogs but never buy that prepared chili sauce for hotdogs
Tomato not processed and canned correctly will get you fast
I usually just buy Wolf brand chili for chili dogs or frito-pie.
.
Yes - “Wolf” good
“Stagg” steak house chili is too
Yes, good!
I’m heading to bed, tired now.
