During World War I and II canning became essential to homemakers due to food shortages. Advances in technology brought forth an abundance of foods in the 1950's. Along with the introduction of frozen foods in the 1950s and 1960's, and the improvement in transporting those frozen foods; home canning dropped off until the 1970's, when there was a brief resurgence because of the desire to be more self sufficient. Today however, home canning is making a comeback. With the cost of food in the supermarket, and the rising costs of transporting that food, because of GMO(genetically modified) food, and people beginning to grow their own food again,home canning is back. Preppers and survivalists have embraced home canning as a way to prepare for future food shortages. Home canning can be a safe, economical way to preserve quality food at home, when safe canning procedures are followed. YOU CAN DO IT!
