Has anyone ever used old food jars like: spaghetti sauce, salsa, or any other glass jar used for food to cure your buds in?

I havent tried it yet but I have been collecting jars and have cleaned them really well. Sometimes they still smell like what was in there and I was wondering if the buds would taste or smell like the food that was in the jars after they have cured.

If anyone has done this can you let me know how it worked?

Thanks

Any odorless jar is fine for curing/storing. If you go with Mason jars, you can find killer deals @ second hand stores, yard sales . . . you know, think "older" folks. GramMa's cellar/attic?
Ex-vegans, etc.
For those of too young to recall, Mason jars are remnants of the first 70? years of the 20th century, when everyone grew a garden. These jars are used for the canning of all kinds of foods and can stand the super-high temps of pressure cookers. Green beans haven't always come in an actual can. Mrs.F. still cans up the garden excesses. I can barely enjoy store bought canned veggies these years. No flavor.

also, you can try to neutralize the smell of the pickle's, etc... with rubbing alcohol or a soap soak. vinegar may work too.
