Canned Food UK Canned Food UK is a not-for-profit organisation that promotes the benefits of using canned food in cooking to make delicious, nutritious, affordable meals.

Canned Food UK is a not-for-profit organisation that promotes the benefits of canned food. Our members include companies who produce material for cans and make metal cans, to the distribution and manufacture of canned food products. Canned foods are nutritious and healthy and alongside fresh, frozen and chilled, can provide you with a balanced, healthy diet. Canned fruit and vegetables can also pr

ovide you with your 5-A-DAY. Canned food is great value, convenient and versatile to use straight off the shelf as an ingredient for a meal or a quick snack. The long shelf life of cans makes it a store-cupboard saviour in households in the UK and around the world. Metal cans are good for the environment – they can be recycled again and again to make new cans or other metal goods like fridges and cars. We work closely with various celebrity chefs and nutritionists, and in partnership with a variety of organisations.

Why are apricots the perfect fruit to incorporate to your summer dishes this June? 🍑

Apricots have a high-water content, which means they’re not only refreshing but also help to keep you hydrated throughout the summer. They’re rich in essential vitamins A and C and contain potassium which is key for the function of normal cells. Choosing canned apricots means they will last a lot longer, so you can stock up and keep them as a true cupboard essential.  

Plus, they’re delicious!! 

Check out below for some ideas on how to use apricots in your upcoming meals!  ⬇️
