Since we're in the heavy canning, dehydrating, and freezing season, I thought it might be fun to ask everybody. Why do you chose home preserved foods over store bought? I think it's higher quality, better tasting, we're helping the little businesses and, as one person said on the venting thread; it keeps me sane. To me canning isn't just food, it's a work of art. Which is why it's appropriate to give home canned jellys, jams, and butters as a gift but not too many give the store bought variety unless it's very high quality. Like from a gourmet business or an Amish type establishment. Just my two cents.
