    A couple canning questions

    1. Has anyone ever canned squash--if so-how did it turn out? 2. How long do canned( home canned) tomatoes last? I found about 6 quarts of tomatoes on the shelf that have '05 on them. There is no discoloration or "growth" of any kind. Will they still be ok to eat?
