(More customer reviews)I am 49 and have canned for as long as I can remember--back to the time I was first able to stand at the stove on a little stool next to my parents. I have canned through tough times and prosperous ones, and in all walks of life. And I give these jars one star...and will never buy them again. (Goodwill and Craigslist are my sources, sorry seller.)
How sad that one corporation now owns all the smaller canning jar companies, and has reduced their quality so terribly. The glass is thinner than ever, the lids come jammed onto the jars--with a higher rate of failure and less reusability--and the jars come in a flimsy carton, not at all suitable for storing and protecting foodstuffs from bumps, dirt, and spider poo. These jars have always been a durable product. Till now.
I hope for the day when someone in China or Poland or Mexico or SOMEWHERE markets a competing brand to Jarden's canning jars, which used to be produced under the high-quality, reliable Ball, Mason, Kerr, and Atlas brands. And now, even the slightly flimsier but serviceable Golden Harvest brand. Just another way that the corporate view (that gentrification means money, and that people of modest means shouldn't be able to make their own food security) is taking everything over.
