angelique,

I prefer frozen to canned, as I think it tastes fresher. (I also have a freezer in the garage) Canning cuts down on tomatoes taking up room in the freezer, so if you have lots, that's a good way to go. Just get a Ball Blue book, follow directions for water bath canning and you won't get sick. Tomatoes and pickles are pretty easy to do. The other stuff has to be pressure canned and I don't do that.

I now have a Foodsaver vacuum sealer and since it draws out all the air, the tomatoes won't get freezer burn or water crystals on the outside. I'm hoping for lots of maters so I can share pics.
