I've never used plastic but some people say that plastic containers affect the taste of the buds, I can't say for sure though. The idea of the glass Mason jars (canning jars) is that it makes for an airtight seal. You want deprive the buds of oxygen during the curing process, I suppose a plastic container with a good seal would do also but like I said I've heard plastic affects the taste. Plastic bags don't provide a good enough seal.
