Wikipedia

  1. canned food

    Canning is a method of food preservation in which food is processed and sealed in an airtight container (jars like Mason jars, and steel and tin cans). Canning provides a shelf life that typically ranges from one to five years, although under specific circumstances, it can be much longer. A freeze-dried canned product, such as canned dried lentils, could last as long as 30 years in an edible state. In 1974, samples of canned food from the wreck of the Bertrand, a steamboat that sank in the Missouri River in 1865, were tested by the National Food Processors Association. Although appearance, smell, and vitamin content had deteriorated, there was no trace of microbial growth and the 109-year-old food was determined to be still safe to eat.

This process might involve sterilization by heat, which kills harmful bacteria and prevents spoilage, enabling the food to be stored for long periods, often years, and consumed safely at a later date. Canned food can include fruits, vegetables, beans, meats, fish, and more.
