3 most common lies, my friends.
Recently acquired some bulk tobacco from one of the big sellers. One arrived in a baggie that wasn't zipped all the way and the edges of the flakes were looking worse for the wear. I was out of jars and ran to the nearest store. Bought some knock off air tight jars b/c that was all they had at any of the stores near me. Few days later, I check on the tobacco. Sure enough, we were even less moist. One jar had a chip the inner lip-I think just from me tightening the jar and there was broken glass in my tobac. I had ordered more Ball jars online just to have on hand and transferred the non-glass dusted tobacco into them this AM.
Figured with all the talk on storage lately, and with my being so heavily in the camp of jar it up, I'd share my nightmare with you all. Name brand jars, folks.
Hope your morning wasn't as much of a scare.
