I, too, notice an abundance of info put out on the dangers of canning and one of the questions I always get when one finds out that I can is "aren't you afraid of botulism?" It makes me crazy! I always want to respond with "how can you drive? Aren't you afraid of getting in an accident?"... because that's more likely! But instead of that coming out I try to give them places they can find out info like the University Extension - people feel safer if the info is in black & white from "an authority" lol. I always remind them that it's like anything else, when you follow instructions and basic food safety rules, it is a wonderful life skill to have and amaze all your friends! Thanks for sharing that with our young population!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916896512933101955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930778534030920874.post-66337887409634927092009-12-15T22:29:09.522-05:002009-12-15T22:29:09.522-05:00Good for you!
