Hello!
Do you have any suggestions for how to reuse the Taster’s Choice glass jars with a lid that the coffee comes in? They are very sturdy. I’m already using them for food storage and condiments.
Thank you.
Hey Ana!
I actually had the same question myself! I ended up using mine for bulk quinoa since they have a pretty solid seal and quinoa is small enough that it doesn’t need a ton of storage space. I think they’d also be great for bulk tea or sewing supplies. I’d love to hear what you end up using it for! 🙂
