      Have you seen how much sugar jam needs to be preserve?
      Fruit jam alone is usually 1:2 and at best for certain acidic fruits 1:3

        The products I buy are 1:1. Maybe slightly more towards sugar, but never 1:3. Not saying these don’t exist but you don’t need more than 1:1 to preserve.

        You don’t need any sugar to preserve, you just need to cook it at 15 lbs of pressure for an hour and a half.

                You have no idea what you are talking about, pressure cooking kills botulism. You have never canned food before clearly. You are just luck louis pasteur isn’t on this thread.

                  What my family told me is:
                  Enough sugar, acidity or long enough heat.

                  And one can’t be a know-it-all in every profession.
                  So if you have a reputable source for your claim, I’ll gladly accept it.
                  Else it’s your word against mine.
