All these people are complaining about how hard it is to open a jar, and I'm sitting here scratching my head because the only times I've ever struggled with jars was after someone closed them too tightly. Just don't use a death-grip when you're closing your jars and you'll be fine unless you're elderly or something.
This guy complaining about struggling to open jars that someone closed too tightly, just be stronger, unless you're weak or something
When my mother was still around, any time I tried to open a jar after she'd gotten to it, I would destroy my hands and still not be able to get it open. I could wreck tendons, give myself blisters, try all the tricks mentioned in this thread, and those lids wouldn't budge. It was like she found a way to weld metal to glass with her bare hands. By comparison, opening the factory seal was no effort at all.
Some jars are sealed at the factory.
I'm well aware. I've never had any trouble opening a factory-sealed jar.
