During World War II, food preservation techniques became crucial due to rationing and supply shortages. Common methods included canning, pickling, and drying to extend shelf life. Additionally, the use of sugar and salt was prevalent for preserving fruits and meats. These techniques helped ensure that food could be stored for longer periods and transported more easily.
