There are some things that are okay canned. I like canned peas and
canned corn. I have never been impressed with canned potatoes, though I
have used them for roasting. Canned pumpkin (squash) makes a pie as good
as a fresh cooked one. Spinach??? I don't know. I have never had it and
I just can't imagine it being good.
