Canned food has sell/us-by dates, because everything needs one…
Acidic food can get weird tasting, but you’re better off ignoring the date and caring about structure integrity of the can.
It’s not about if it ruptured, if it was canned correctly or not. If there’s any flex whatsoever in the can, don’t risk. Even if it’s on the grocery store shelf and a year from expiration.
So you can use whatever beans you want, but don’t feel like you “have” to use the can, they’ll last.
