Canned tomatoes, or tinned tomatoes, are tomatoes, usually peeled, that are sealed into a can after having been processed by heat.
[1] Industrially produced canned tomatoes are internationally a staple product[2] and subject to regular market analysis[3] as well as trade considerations.
[4][5] Home canned tomatoes may be prepared in a number of ways.
[6] However, safety measures need to be taken, since improperly canned tomatoes can cause botulism poisoning, whether produced industrially or at home.
