   You may prepare any chunk-style or pureed fruit with
   or without sugar, using the procedure for preparing
   each fruit. Pack in half-pint, preferably, or pint
   jars and refer to the processing times in Table 1.
   
   Caution: Do not attempt to can vegetables, red meats,
   or poultry meats, because proper processing times for
   pureed foods have not been determined for home use.
   Instead, can and store these foods using the standard
   processing procedures; puree or blend them at serving
   time. Heat the blended foods to boiling, simmer for 10
   minutes, cool, and serve. Store unused portions in the
   refrigerator and use within 2 days for best quality.
