    Thank you! I picked up a “Triple L” this weekend and was trying to figure out how to look it up…

    My husband grew up on a farm that’s been in the family for about 120 years. Years ago, his mom gave us a bunch of old tinted canning jars that had been in the basement forever, and we cleaned them up and have since been using them to store dry beans.

    I saw this chart last week and became curious about how old those jars were anyway. I learned we are storing beans in jars that are from 1910-1923 and 1923-1933.
