One of the pints of applesauce I canned this weekend did not seal. I only discovered after I went to remove the rings and test seals about 24 hours after setting them out to cool.
I noticed right away that there was way too much headspace in the jar (UGH!) and the lid popped right off when I tried it.
I put the jar in the fridge right away, but my question is this:
Is it really still safe to eat after sitting out to cool for 24 hours?
Jaime - I can't advise you as to what is really safe or not, but I can tell you, my guys would've been thrilled that one didn't make it to the pantry - they would've downed it for breakfast! LOL! Hugs - Nini

OK - sorry - but this is how my brain works. I read your topic and immediately pictured an unhappy marine critter sitting in a corner with a little dunce cap on his head.
