Employees go through the canisters and pick out the obviously moldy ones. They’re trying to work fast, though, so they can miss some that aren’t obvious. The decay can also get much, much worse just in the time the product sits on the shelves, depending on how good the refrigeration in that exact spot is.
Anyway, open them up and examine before purchase. The employees will not mind, it’s what they’d do too.
edit: Assuming there’s no sticker. If they’re sealed with a sticker then I wouldn’t break it.

Given that people were licking ice cream a couple years ago, I’m not sure people would be OK with things being opened up in the store.
Yeah, that’s … unfortunate. Can always just ask one of them if it’s cool.
I still feel like I’m getting judged just for checking for broken eggs in a carton
