| I have a 1975 edition. Is this an accepted source today? No, very outdated. While the instructions for some acidic foods may not have changed much, there have been several major changes in other canning guidelines since 1975. Unfortunately, even later editions of the Sunset publications have failed to incorporate needed changes in some of their instructions. Dave |
