Re: Canned Food

Normal for high acid ( like tomato ) cans to leak after a good number of years... that's why I don't store them. ( hate to clean up a mess which like you I learned ). But many long term canned items only have a max dated life of 4-5 yrs anyway with most being 2yrs or less Two things I found out that...
