Did I just throw away a perfectly good ...
can of Muir Glen Organic Fire Roasted Diced Tomatoes? I haven't used them before, the fire roasted ones - we got it nearly free with a coupon. The wife opened the can and it had lots of black specks, throughout the can. I told her it was probably the charring, they are fire roasted, after all. She studied the can - no mention of charring, no picture of any either - and made me look on the internet. No mention of any charred particles or notes about appearance on Muir Glen's website. The can was in perfect condition, no dents, no rust, etc.
Academic at this point, as the contents of the can went down the disposal. But I'm very curious if I've squandered a buck or so of perfectly good product or just saved ourselves from a very bad fate. Anybody eaten these and care to comment?
