How come the amazon description says diet type: vegetarian when this contains beef?

It is definitely beefy. So yummy.

To those who have bought these, how are they packaged? (Any dented cans?)

We do take precautions when packaging so that our products do not arrive damaged.

Does it contain bioengineered ingredients?

From what I can tell from the ingredients it is all natural including the beef, that being said its not vegetarian.

How long does number10 can last after its opened and stored in dark area on a shelf. Any tips for safe storage?

Per the label, stored with the included plastic lid resealed, up to one week after opening.
