Canned vegetables may be convenient and a time saver in the kitchen, but that means the food is processed and packed with salt and preservatives. Sure, those canned foods can sit on the shelf for months, sometimes years, and they are as easy to add to a meal as popping the top. However, the canning process decreases nutritional value, so by gaining convenience, you lose coveted nutrients (not to mention increase your risk to being exposed to BPA).
