Silly me, I thought I could encompass the whole can and glass jar thing in one episode.  I was wrong.

Instead this episode talks about early bottling, the introduction of canning and how it was used in the early 19th century.  And there's lots of talk about botulinum toxin and botulism... a fear of my childhood, but a cosmetic procedure today.  Who knew?

So to learn about the steps that lead to canned food coming in glass jars - tune in!
