1. Fruits and vegetables used for canning are especially grown for that purpose; picked at just the right point of maturity, sealed in cans and cooked in the briefest possible time after harvesting.
2. Nothing is added to canned fruits except a sugar syrup; and nothing to canned vegetables except water and sometimes a little salt or sugar for seasoning.
3. The canning process does not affect the food value of the starches, sugars, fats and proteins. The canning industry has developed many methods designed to conserve the vitamins and minerals of the fresh raw products. Hence, modern commercially canned foods retain in good degree the food values of the fresh foods used for canning.
4. Canned Food may be safely left in the open can if it is covered and kept in a refrigerator. This you should do with left-over cooked food stored in any type of container.
5. The use of commercially canned foods saves many hours of preparation of raw fruits, vegetables, fish and meats, and also assures no waste.
