Have you ever tasted olives that have been boiled briskly for 20 minutes? Or home-bottle-d peaches? Or pickled cherjies? Or store As a matter of fact, I always feed them, the products of my labors, to my family with a bit of misgiving, lest I be giving them, instead of nourishing food, a lethal dose of botulities. It all dates back to my childhood, I suppose. You. know how much children like olives? Well, remember, too, that olives were rather a delicacy at the time I was growing up not regular bill o fare. When I. was young I had a weird craving for olives and would often wheedle enough money from my parents to buy a small can of olivea, to be consumed in all their deliciousnesa at one abort sitting. peculiar And then&it day Mother went to a PTA Meeting when tha guest speaker was a nTHTu0and Vhe hi mt ?

Now I actually dont know of anyone personally in my more than 40 years who ever got botulities from eating canned foods or from any other sourCe, as a matter of fact.
