I keep my egg spread in the fridge in a glass jar I bought for 20c at a fleamarket in Germany. It has a rubber seal and a metal clip that keeps it airtight. It's brilliant. I wish we could get them here, I would buy more of them. We have those tight sealing glass jars in Finland too, they're used for preserves, be it jams or picles or whatever... they're usually more readily available in the late summer / early autumn when people start making preserves.

Meowmie note: He is a wonderful cat, and has changed my mind (as a previous d#g owner) as to what cats can really be like. He truly has a beautiful soul. There is nothing at all about him that is bad. He is gentle. He doesn't like to be picked up, but if I have to do it, he just dangles with no resistance at all - unlike KFC - who doesn't mind giving me a good slash if I do it to her. If Boyfie ever drew his claws out to me - and he has a full set - I would know that he was in some sort of extreme pain and could not help it. |

I was just thinking that at least here in the Lidls they have a paté in a jar like that (in the cool area with the sausages and hams and such). So of the UK Lidls happen to carry that same paté, and you happen to like it even, you're all set for jars... -- Christine in Laitila, Finland christal63 (at) gmail (dot) com photos: http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/bb108/christal63/ photos: http://community.webshots.com/user/chkr63 |

"Christina Websell" "jmcquown" ... Christina Websell wrote: She must have read what I did a bit later. It's the sperm sacs of male herrings. Boyfie did look at it and said no way Jose. Apparently some humans like to eat it on toast. We are all going to give it a miss and the other pot will be going in the bin. Eeewww. I don't think it will catch on here ;-) Tweed Boyfie is smart! Can you take the unopened container to the store for a refund? Not really. They probably think I was stupid to buy it too ;-) It's in the garbage. It seemed a good idea at the time, I thought Kitty might like it. Ah, well, we live and learn., eh? Those of us who have CRF kitties (or d*gs) are continually looking for something that might take their fancy, as it's so difficult to find something they might like to eat. Tweed None of my cats can eat fish..they puke it up too. I never tried the fishy eggs they serve...too ewwwwwww for me. Hug Kylatte' aka Kyla |

Is this what it looks like? http://www.freundcontainer.com/produ...8_A_AIR%2DSEAL +JARS+%96+GLASS Yes, that is the same sort of container as the "Ball jar" (a US brand of home-canning jars). There are also some that have a two-part lid, a flat disk with heat-sensitive glue around the edge and a ring that holds the disk in place. In the canning process, when the heat inside the pressure canner (basically, a large pressure cooker) gets hot enough to sterilize the contents of the jars, it also melts the glue, sealing the disk in place. The ring then protects the disk from being accidentally dislodged. When you are ready to use the contents of the jar, you pry up the lid, breaking the glue seal. The jars and rings can be washed and reused in another year's canning process; the flat disk is intended for one-time-only use, as there is no certainty that the glue will seal airtight a second time. -- John F.
