So, are you telling us to 'stick a fork in it' CB? LOL! :)

I have always used Ball or Kerr canning jars. I've had exactly ONE jar fail in decades, so I'm sticking with what works.

I DO save any 'pretty' commercial jars I happen to come across and use those for Freezer Jams that I'm going to give as gifts. They're pretty abundant at my local Thrift Shops, too, and Dollar Tree usually has some interesting jars for cheap.

When I can find any 'Bonne Maman' jars, I grab them! So pretty!

And if you're trying to stop using plastic food containers and switching over to glass, those screw-on lids for Mason jars are great. Yes, they're plastic, but they're not touching your food and they are convenient. Check Walmart or Amazon.

This woman has a great summary of all kinds of lids for canning:

That is a beautiful jar, I love the red and white checkered pattern on the lid.

I collect pretty jars also, they’re very festive to have around filled with whatever I find.

I admit I have a jar fetish....I have bought things only because I loved the jar...lol
