Mason jars are the shit! Love them, I have mine filled with everything from tiny ones with tiny screws, herbs, spices etc (not in the same jars lol) dried pasta, home made preserves and pickles, paints, etc as they are air tight and last forever if you don’t drop them. The only issue I have is the rubber seals wear out but you can buy replacement silicone ones for literally pennies, I personally get the Kilner ones as they are cheap and available easily in the UK and far better than the IKEA or TKMAXX/other ones.

If someone tried serving me a drink in one though, I would probably scream and hit them over the head with the roof tile they had just served my food on (jk).

Hopping on the mason jar hype train. The fact that they’re glass makes them a lot easier to wash, and with the 4oz and 8oz ones I’ve been able to put the jars through the dish washer. They hand wash nicely which was a priority when I first began using them in school (dorms).
