Today, food manufacturers, restaurateurs, and home canners understand the finer points of preserving food. But years ago, people weren't considering nor truly conscious of the potential dangers of expired food or inadequately sealed vegetables.
Without a thorough understanding of food preservation, foodborne illnesses such as botulism, listeria, and e. Coli were significant threats.
