    About this jar

    Why does this jar lie on its side?

    The penny candy jar is the shape you remember from a corner store counter. Anchor Hocking gives this half-gallon one a flat rectangular base, so the jar rests on its side and the open mouth faces you. You reach in at an angle and pull out a cookie without lifting anything.

    A chrome cover with one knob pushes into the mouth, and a gasket holds it in place. That keeps dust and curious paws out, though the maker does not call it airtight. You get 64 ounces of room, enough for a bag of dog biscuits or a mix of wrapped candy, and the jar is made in the USA.
