LOL, love the soap box. There’s a lot I don’t do either and never have!

I live in England and we never had the Ball Blue Books, so I had a look at the list and have downloaded ‘How to use the food you can’ As I read bits of it, I was reminded how my diet has changed Today we eat fresh food almost daily. As a child growing up in the 60’s and 70’s our diet was not only more restricted and in the leaner months when fresh food was not as abundant, we turned to canned and preserved foods. This book brought back a lot of memories I have of childhood food, some good, some fantastic! and some bog awful.
So I suppose I’m saying thanks for the link, it has reminded me that home preserved food still has a far bigger part to play in my diet than I give room for it.
