"Irish Oats" again...

Jul. 31st, 2007 at 12:43 AM

This weekend when we were visiting friends, I noticed a can of McCann's Irish Oatmeal in the kitchen, and asked if I could check it out.

It's not just the last two cans we bought.

This one smelled of rancid fat too.

TJ's carries "Country Choice Organics" and they're pretty good. A bit finer a cut than the McCanns, but nice and clean-smelling.

me too

I've been eating McCann's for a while but just noticed this with the last can I bought.

Pretty sure that smell wasn't there before, it's pronounced enough that I would have noticed.

Re: me too

Try "Country Choice Organics" steel-cut oats from Trader Joe's.

Is there a Web URL on the label? If so, have you tried looking on their site? There may be a recall or something. If you don't see anything like that, is there a way to leave a comment?

Or if there's a phone number, try calling?

I just switched brands to one that doesn't seem to have the problem.

McCanns - 4 cans, all rancid when opened
Country Choice - 5 cans, all good
