Here’s something for discussion: Some cities, states and even countries have been banning “single-use” plastic items, including some of the things that we, as cottage-food operations, use for packaging products and samples.

As Davide mentioned: Definitely nothing with garlic in oil unless properly acidified, due to the risk of botulism.
