? about lids
While sealing my jars yesterday, one of the lids got what looks like a crinkle in it. the jar is still sealed, no popping when you press the lid or anything. Do you think it safe to use?

Re: ? about lids
I would, but then, I used to can in the "do not use" glass jars.
Honestly, if it has a tight seal, I wouldn't worry-maybe just make sure that ones in the front of the stash? so it gets used first?

Re: ? about lids
I'd use it sooner than later...
Sounds like it sealed so well that the lid gave out...which means that it's really *not* so well sealed anymore.

I've also heard that you can reuse the lids if you paint paraffin around them. (cheap I know, but part of the reason we are canning is economics, second to health reasons)
