Canning lid safety cautions amid new designs
Home economists warn that newer canning lid designs risk reliability and seal failure. Traditional two piece lids remain the safest choice, while one piece caps and plastic lids must be used with care. For tomatoes, add citric acid or lemon juice or vinegar when water bath canning, or use pressure canning with specified times. Botulism cases suggest some tomatoes may be too low in acid depending on variety and climate.
