Some coffee places are doing this now as a paper cup replacement. Bring the jar back get a dollar off

But, isn’t that hot to hold? Glass jar, with no handle.

Also incredibly dangerous. Jars are only supposed to be heat cycled once or twice during packaging in a controlled environment. Continuous heat cycles often makes them susceptible to shattering.

Im new to canning and jarring, but dont people reuse jars all the time? That would involve a bunch of heat cycles over a life span

Depends on the glass tbf. Borosilicate glass is good at sudden temp changes. My dab bong and 40 year old PYREX can attest.

Although after a quick google. THOSE jars shouldnt be reused for canning, so its possible they may be weaker from heat cycles i suppose
