"Pick you flowers from our yard,
You can set 'em in the window in a mason jar."
- Kellie Pickler, "Mother's Day"
Before the advent of refrigeration and electricity, preserving food for later use was a major concern. Some foods could be kept in root cellars, others fermented, others dried.
Then, in the year 1800, a French inventor developed a means of sealing food in airtight containers. Canning was born.
Canning involves placing a food, such as jelly or pickles, in a sanitized jar and heating it to kill any microorganisms in the food.
An airtight vacuum seal forms as the jar - the mason jar - cools and the contracting air sucks the lid on tight. Since no air can get in, neither can bacteria, and the food can remain safe to eat for years.

The mason jar was named after its inventor, John Landis Mason. The glass jars were developed in 1858 for use in home canning food.
The jars accept one of several sizes of lids consisting of a metal ring or band and a disc with a rubber ring on the bottom. Other names include canning jar, fruit jar, Kilner jar, and ball jar.
In the United States, mason jars have become symbols of "the good old days," rural living, and simpler times. Country songs mention using mason jars as beverage glasses or to capture fireflies.
The jars are frequently used in home decor, holding candles, lights, or flowers, and as decorations at rustic weddings.
