Answer:

Three things:

-Under processing before canning

-Spoilage before canning

-entrance of water through can seams during cooling

Explanation:

The preservation process is aimed at reducing the rate of spoilage of food products over time.

When adequately processed a time can be given during which the food product is still not spoilt. For example 1 year from date of canning. After this period there is a high possibility of food spoilage.

If a can of peas was bought from a grocery and it is spoilt it is either the peas were not well processed, there was spoilage before commercial canning, or water entered when cooling during canning
