The process was the beginning of the vast canning industry, which brings us a variety of foods in all seasons. Fruits are often preserved by drying. The use of chemicals is another method, and some foods are cooked with sugar. But recently, the method of preserving food by freezing has grown tremendously, and more foods than ever before are now being processed by freezing.

With the developing society, and the developing technology, the better we think of, the better life we get. (28) Food keeping is so important in our dally life and everyone needs to eat.
