Seems like a shame to throw away and must have a use.
Growing mushrooms.
So I’m not too clear on the details but you can buy mason jars with silica in them and some spores. Put them in a dark spot and water them(?) and you’ll soon have psilocybin mushrooms. Unclear how you get the spores in the jars…I think they come that way? I’m not sure but I think you can order them online but it might be a dark web thing.
There are two well known uses for a jar on the internet. You don’t want any of them.
My mom has a collection of old jars. I’m not sure even she knows what to do with them, but she’s pretty crafty. Or if you’re not super crafty yourself, maybe you know someone who is and would appreciate the jar? Idk.
Alternatively, you could recycle it. In my city there are a couple places people can take their recyclables (plastic, paper, glass, even yard waste) for free.
Store pickle, spices, dry fruits? I’m not sure if that’s a food-grade jar. I would recommend pickling raw (ripe is used for sambar) Malabar cucumber. But then again, you won’t be able to probably find it in your stores. Or better, buy black pepper in bulk, throw them in a mixer grider, turn it to power, and then store it.
Yes, it is, but glass can be contaminated by previously carcinogenic and not-fit-for-consumption substances. Simply scrubbing with soap and water isn’t enough.
Huh? What jar bought from a store these days is going to have that issue? There is uranium glass but even the cheapest cheap shit glass from the dollar store is going to be safe for food storage. Glass isn’t likely to leach out harmful chemicals like plastic can. Plus glass doesn’t absorb anything that could then later be harmful, that’s why glass is used for canning among other things.
Do you happen to have any My Little Pony figurines to put in the jar?
