A plastic seasoning container of dried parsley. Not too difficult to understand.
Although, I don’t think anyone realizes what a jar of dried parsley used to cost so it’s a poor example.

So you agree that a plastic container is also considered a “jar”?

Not so much this time of year as the temperatures are rising. It is much easier to grow in cooler months.

I don’t consider the plastic container a jar but y’all are just being assholes now. He used the wrong word, so what?
You’re bashing the OP because he said “a jar of parsley”. Really?

They call it a bottle but according to the definition, it’s not a bottle. So what would you call it?
bot·tle
/'bäd?l/
noun
noun: bottle; plural noun: bottles
a container, typically made of glass or plastic and with a narrow neck, used for storing drinks or other liquids.
"a bottle of soda pop"
Jar vs Bottle
Obvious as it may seem, jars and bottles can be easily distinguished by their openings. Jars have a wider opening to accommodate solid and liquid items. This means that it can store a wider variety of items without much hassle. They also allow users to either pour or scoop out the items. Having a wider opening means that it also has a wide top cover that is perfect for stacking multiple jars.
Bottles on the other hand, have a narrow opening which is designed for liquids and really small solids. This design is due to the fact that bottles are more of a consumer grade item rather than a storage unit. This means that a major contributing factor of the bottle’s design is being able to be easily used by people.

I put parsley right into the freezer in the plastic bag you get in the produce section. It stays fluffed up and you can just shave off what you need. As good as fresh.

I agree prices are outrageous. I only buy stuff on sale. Not because I’m poor but because I’m cheap.

A small coffee creamer was $4.49 yesterday. It’s double what it was earlier this year.

All food items are high now. I buy most of my stuff from Costco, especially bulk stuff and lesser quantities of things from Rouses near me.
Dave's Killer Bread in a 2 loaf package was $9 where it was not quite $7 not long ago. I don't buy them, but noticed the 30 pack of 12 oz. sodas are over $17 now and were around $12 a year ago.
Egg prices have gone up a damn near double what they were a year ago.
At Rouses, the last time I got some Chisesi Ham, it was almost $8 a lb. and a little over a year ago is was just over $4 a lb. unless on sale---and it was less than that.
And this one has been going on for years and I can't understand the crazy pricing. I grow okra and know it grows like a damn weed, is hard to kill, is drought tolerant and requires very little in the way of maintenance except picking the pods when they are ready.
Almost any supermarket I'm in has okra priced at $3.99 a lb. and it is usually some of the nastiest looking produce they offer with pods being limp, turning color, etc.
