New Mexico. Mrs. Fidel Romero Proudly Exhibits Her Canned Food. [Two Women Standing in a Kitchen Pantry. Pantry Contains Preserved Fruits and Vegatables.] 1946

from U.S. National Archives

John said:
Being pedantic this is bottled - not canned - food. Bottling is a process that can be carried out in a home environment and I imagine the whole purpose of the photo was to encourage women to grow and preserve their own food during the war. Bottling only requires strong glass jars with an airtight seal but no other special equipment. Canning can be carried out on a small scale but is usually a factory process on a commercial scale in view of the special equipment needed..

Please learn how to spell! Vegetable is spelled with an E, not an A...
Tidy Word said:
In American English "canning" means preserving fruits or vegetables in either metal cans or glass jars.
magnoliasoutherly said:
I respectfully disagree with John. The word canning does not mean metal only. In fact, it has nothing to do at all with the container it is in. It is actually a method of food preservation. Whether in a tin can or a jar, matters not. This method of food preservation is where food is processed and sealed in an airtight container. That's all it means.

The field museum should totally re-enact this contest.

Hmm. It's a lot different now! I'm guessing that where the open field is, is where the current A1 route travels?

The photographer is standing in what is now, the middle of the North end of the Southbound car park at Birtley services. Looking over Malley's Hole (an old pit) to Harraton Colliery on the left. The Magnesium Limestone Escarpment (A Heugh) at Heugh Hall (or what the new generation prefer to call Old Quarrington) sticks out like a sore thumb on the horizon.
