Thank you Jim for keeping us ladies safe from these jerks. Big big hugs to you. Love that you help Pam. Love you guys for helping us viewers learn survival skills. God bless you

[@cindypendleton7901]

Amen! Thank you Jim!

[@litaknowes7294]

Ditto TY Jim!!!

[@pamt3915]

This is what science is all about; conducting experiments to reach a conclusion! This is a great option for canned items that you rotate through within a year or less. Thank you for conducting this experiment despite all the backlash. You’re a canning trailblazer!

[@bonnie5601]

Good morning and just give Jim a GREAT BIG HUG for making us all laugh

[@debrawood8482]

Great party contribution Jim! Love the science teacher experiments w/ you Pam! You’re both such a blessing to this community - thank you! 🎃🎃

[@debbiebrugman4543]

🎉 Hooray 🥳 tattler test. And thank you Jim for keeping your viewers safe from scum bag predators.

[@starfire8221]

🎉 Thank you Jim for joining the celebration, you made me laugh out loud. Great video.

[@mary-catherine9237]

I remember the big brouhaha that you created. It was discussed on many of the canning channels. It is “not acceptable “ blah blah blah. However, as you mentioned Tattler followed suit. I think they owe you a finders fee or commission or something. Thanks for what you do, Pam and Jim!

[@estrogenacres801]

I also wanted to add that I love the idea of using a tattler gasket with a regular lid, that way you know when you have a good seal. No ping with the plastic ones lol

[@danniemcdonald4903]

Thank you Jim, for your hard work. Chivalry is not dead! Although, I thought I'd hit the jackpot with the last one. A DOCTOR!!! Oh, well, I can wait a while longer for Mr. Right. I'm only 70 (today!).

[@trishfriesen8943]

Thanks for your diligence ,Jim, regarding unwanted guests n fab info as usual Pam!

[@suseyq4559]

Thank you both for your contributions to your channel. Jim….thank you for booting the wayward people off. Thank you Pam for your constant search for safe information!

[@lyndabuchholz1216]

Jim thank you! I have gotten those messages on many of my responses and not only on your channel! Very irritating. I report them now. Thank you for that experiment!! I really don't like the plastic tattler lids. I can't tell if they are sealed. I like the pop in the metal lids. Glad they changed their lids! I vacuum sealed some of my dried food in the tattler lids and they were sealed when i put them on the shelf and I just happened to look at those jars and found that the seal had broken but I couldn't see it till I opened the jar.

[@Breezbug]

Sealed lids. Music to my ears. 😀 Glad your test is a success. Thanks to you both for all your hard work. 🥰

[@DeeDeeDIY]

Yay on the Tattler gasket experiment!! Sorry about the inverter not coming on. Sad. On another note, thanks Jim for the confetti! That was unexpected! Made me chuckle. Thank you so much for your diligence in keeping the site clear of unwanted harassment. Rock on you two!

[@beckybakke4993]

Thank you Jim for the diligence in keeping the idiots at bay!

[@daves1563]

I usually use the old lids for vacuum sealed jars. I didn’t even think to try that out. Great tip, nice to have more options.

[@jojosurprise7696]

Jim ‘making’ it a party. Love your interaction as well as your well thought out advice💕

[@S.Kay.Steffy]

I remember watching all your videos regarding the Tatler lids and it’s been interesting to watch your monthly updates on the jars. By the way, regarding the scumbags invading the comment section, I also report every one I find…they are disgusting people😡

[@DutchAlaskagirl]

I do the same☺️

[@juliedickson729]

Good news about the l tattler lids staying sealed and the new discovery to use the rubber seals on metal flats! Bummer about the yeti, but was worth a try! Thanks to Jim for the ( rose petal !)party and help to keep the us safe!

[@sonyareeder7855]

Its refreshing to watch a show that contains some failures...might be funny to say but we live in a real world with ups and downs. And encouraging to know that failure happens and affects us all not just some.

[@derekwalters4980]

I'm not surprised Jim did that! For as much time and energy as Pam puts into these experiments, I think a bit of a "show" is appropriate! Thank you, it's nice to know this is a real option in canning. I'm very disappointed about the YETI. I had heard replacing the batteries was an option as well.

[@flowerchild777]

Thanks Mr Jim 💖💖💖💖💖

[@susangortva7939]

just checked tattlers site. they do still carry 100 bulk gaskets. and all i can say is, thank goodness for you and tattler figuring out how to save canning.

[@pamelawest2316]

Pam you and Jim are GET IT DONE people, that’s what makes America GREAT!!! Love your videos…Pam did you try recharging the new battery?

[@Bigfoottehchipmunk]

I am glad to know Tattler has the metal lids too now. It makes some feel a little more secure, hearing that ping. I know I have some brand of metal lids that don't ping, and it masked some fails. I have had success with their plastic lids though. 👍

[@carolr4871]

I can't thank you enough for testing the Tattler gaskets with used metal lids. I was waiting to hear your results before buying gaskets. I had previously bought Tattler lids with rings. I bought a dozen rings-not 100, because I don't even have room in my apartment for 100 jars of anything-for a mere US$5.50 (46¢ each) and free shipping. People can be brutal. From your previous videos, I know you're able to tune out the noise and keep doing your experiments (like you did with the Nesco canner, which I also appreciated) as you see fit. We need you, and we trust you! I imagine by now you've realized it's not only homesteaders who are following you. I live in an apartment in a suburb of Milwaukee, so no room for gardening. But I love the fresh taste of the food I canned in the summer. Jim, thank you for taking care of us.

[@timothyjones9430]

Holy dang crap! Nice job!

[@mehtarelingolien]

I love the idea of a visual "tell" for a good seal on metal lids, since some of us are deaf and cannot hear the ping(?) that signals that a jar has sealed well.

[@tonistephens4068]

Love your channel lady bug!

[@scholargrrl]

Thank you both! For the science and keeping the comments section safe!

[@TheFaith36763]

So very much appreciate Jim’s efforts. Appreciate you both so much

[@litaknowes7294]

U are a trooper trying for resurrection ..nothing ventured nothing gained but you followed through Thank you!!!

[@Clonath2]

Yay!!! The day has arrived! So glad you did this experiment for us!

[@margaretbates6010]

Jim you are a hero. Thank you for all your work

[@amsohn1]

Thanks so much... mine have held just fine as well... I'm 1year and 3 mos. Next to my Harvest Guard as well the plastic lids too. All sealed and no issues! Thanks Jim, yes I've been contacted and I have reported as well. Blessings

[@elettramia6380]

I can’t believe on a channel like this there are sleez balls searching to groom women. I love this channel I watch these videos to provide a good life for my family. Who ever is on this channel being indecent obviously made the wrong turn

[@meltingpotcreative6961]

Thank @RoseRedHomestead sharing this testing process. I just binged all the videos about this. I also shared with my mom and she said that in her younger days and canning with her mom, they always replaced the gasket as needed and reused the metal lids. They didn't have the purchasing convenience that we had today. Hmmm...she is 82. Wisdom is golden and sealed!

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Thanks for sharing family experiences and watching our channel. Jim

[@judyrosey]

Harvest Guard reusable lids (like tattler) are having a sale on their rubber rings right now! I bought some a year ago and they work wonderfully!

[@mush3199]

I use them too. Truly delightful company to work with

[@tiarawarrior9542]

What is there website please

[@Clonath2]

Yes! I just ordered some after seeing this video. I was waiting for the results to come in, and I'm happy the I got to the sale on time.

[@northernlight5889]

Loved the party! You two are awesome. Always love the science and experiments done. This is great news! Thanks for keeping us learning and growing ❤

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Thanks so much for watching our videos. Jim

[@roszcutler9724]

You both are the best! What a hoot you both are! Such fun 😊 I’m always grateful for your information you provide us with. Thank you. By the way I haven’t been able to do my water bath canning course because I cannot seem to get on and also my two year old Bosch stove died on me and just now got fixed. To that I say Hallelujah!

[@suzanvandorp6569]

You two are awesome and make me smile.

[@melissajardstrom1839]

Thank you... Thank you... Thank you for the experiment. I, also have been using the gaskets with gently used flats for over a year. I also felt like it was the gasket that would have caused a seal fail not the lid. It looks like we are both right!

[@dorothyyoung8231]

Was anyone else sitting on the edge of their chair as Pam tapped each jar??

[@michelleperkins9886]

Jim is a Hero! Thank you!!!

[@tracylarson7062]

Congratulations on your expirement! Thank you for trying the battery change excellent idea. Last but not least thank you Jim for reporting those people. Loved the confetti and your into music.

[@chefevilee9377]

Oh wow that Tatler ring with a regular metal use lid is a great idea! I never even thought about that. Here’s one thing that I have done in case of a problem in the canning supplies. I’ve bought stainless steel bands and screens for sprouting seeds. Well I can use an older band that I might not use for canning any longer for sprouting seeds. But I’m keeping the stainless steel bands in case of an emergency. They will never get old rusty or chipped.

[@mush3199]

Thank you for your integrity. I appreciate knowing that you will show both successes and fails

[@lindaseikkula2296]

Thank you both for your wonderful teachings.

[@carolswitzer5451]

They look so pretty. I bought the tattler lids and gaskets. So i am glad for your success. Thank you.

[@annphilbeck5174]

They are everywhere. I report them also. Thank you both!

[@AndreaRuralMN]

I was so perplexed when the coolers became so popular. People were just naming the brand and how well they worked. I was confused because I had no idea how many secret preppers were out there. Then they mentioned beer or how much they cost, I finally put it together. They were just being trendy with the newest consumerism gear! Not off grid preparedness! I will say that the coolers do work well though

[@rainspringing]

So awesome, including the party confetti. lol Thank you again, and always, for seeing this experiment all the way through to a year. Often I wish a privately owned food lab could conduct a variety of suggested experiments all the time, and video them in detail.

[@sheilam4964]

👍👍👍👍👍 The surprise and that look on Pam's face was priceless. Thanks for giving me a chuckle.

[@YouGrowRow]

🎉🎉 Thanks for the giggle Jim! Awesome news.

[@IMOO1896]

Hilarious misunderstanding, reviving a Yeti- I have a Yeti that no longer keeps drinks cold-ice cold, and I was hoping you have a hack for that😂😂

[@paulas.8089]

Love the celebration!

[@reneenewfrock5743]

My son introduced me to tattler lids a couple years ago. I love them! I use both the tattler lid and gasket combo. Genius idea.

[@seaflower1520]

Thank you about protecting us. I got one of those responses to my last comment and just ignored it. I am happy I did not respond.

[@pansyvaughan5624]

aghhh awesome!!! you made me have a great smile thank you guys

[@yahushaismyshepherd1179]

I know this is unrelated but could you do a video on dry packed pressure canned potatoes and the science. Much love to you and Jim. May God bless you and your loved ones and shine his light on you always. 🙌🤲🙏💕🇨🇦

[@KitchenFairy61]

I just checked out the new Tattler metal lids on their site. They have just the gaskets available again 😃 I thought you might like to know that. I've been using For jars lids and rings over this past year. No failures 👍

[@MeowsTheTime]

Wow a year. I bought the gaskets but haven't used any of them yet!~

[@starsaligninthesky]

Thanks Jim! Sorry about the yeti. I was so excited for you.

[@mayhembeading3737]

Hi Pam and Jim! Gotta share this with somebody who will appreciate it- I finally got brave last night and fired up my All American 930 pressure canner. I had been terrified of it. It taunted me for a few months. Ran a successful test run with it and I'm starting with pressure canning your beef stew recipe. Thank you for encouraging us all.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Congratulations! That sounds fantastic!! Let us know about your other successes. Jim

[@carolr4871]

Congrats! I'm glad I'm not the only one who's relatively new to this. I have the Nesco canner, and I love it.

[@deborahablair743]

Can't believe it's been a year.

[@marygallagher3428]

Glad to hear the Tattler experiment was a great success!

[@shirleyhoward8806]

Thank you Jim,your awesome

[@kathystearns9012]

Thank you Jim, because I got one of those texts too. 😲

[@kimibrown1578]

You guys are so fun and cute! I love your smile as you made music!!! 🎶 The sealed sound is music to my ears too.

[@jinglesh1398]

Thank you so much for doing this experiment. Loved your celebration !!!! Sorry about the Yeti but you did try

[@donnamullins2089]

Hooray for the Tattler. Sorry about the Yeti. Happy Halloween. Jim thanks for reporting the creeps on your site. I reported also.

[@carolynsinyard1306]

So thankful for all that you two do for your viewers. Mr. Jim you are the best.

[@MorningJavaCup]

You are inspiring, just started following you about a couple of months ago, when i feel a bit down i watch a random video of yours to cheer my self up. I told mama you look like her we giggled, but sadly she passed away a bit less than a month ago. Watching you cheers me up ❤️

[@elenavaccaro339]

Thank you for doing this. I will look into the metal lids from Tattler, but also check for just the seals.

[@kathkwilts]

Thank you, Jim…

[@PattyLU2]

Such fun! Looks like I'm heading to get some tattler lids! Mr. Jim, thank you for keeping an eye on and reporting these jerks that have nothing better to do. Love you guys and I can't wait to try the recipes in the new 4 Sisters book!

[@debbiemoore4228]

Thank you thank you, you are a great inspiration for us to always try ! My work causes me to be around dozens of 12 volt batteries every day. Bulging is typical of getting overheat. Something to be considered. I love the way you two are fun & playful with a zest for life. You are both very blessed. 🌻

[@simes0161]

Great news and success... love you both and the confetti! :))))

[@jeannettecarpenter3784]

I learned 3 things, if you get an auxillary generator check the battery regularly.

[@cindystimson3632]

Thank you Jim and Pam for protecting us. I've gotten these from several sites that I watch.

[@synergy2222]

You two are so cute! ❤

[@sharlamoudy4962]

I love your enthusiasm! Thank you for helping us learn.

[@litaknowes7294]

Ting ting ting oooo Science LOL U Rock Rose

[@buddysmom1583]

Good News! You can still purchase the Tattler gasket rings by themselves in the Tattler store. When you go to the store, scroll all the way to the end. You can find them a few products above the end.

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Thanks for the info! Jim

[@danlopresto1123]

Thank you for keeping us updated and safe on this.

[@paularthur1158]

You know, not only women listen to your channel. I've learned many things from you and I like the way that you present the information you provide thanks!

[@carmellayates2503]

Thank you for the Tattler information and the sound of a good seal .

[@midwestern925]

Really good to know! Thank you!

[@shaerayb4520]

Thank you Jim. I haven't gotten creeps on this channel but on others. It is disturbing but I always block them. Thanks for helping keep us from those creeps.

[@annette2407]

Hooray!!!! 🎉❤confetti toss as Jim did! I love what he did when you tested the lids.

[@dlillianb1368]

Yea, good job! Thanks Jim for all your work and for the confetti🎉

[@deborahablair743]

Love the Miro Moment intro.

[@Chellees]

Waaaahooooooo!! GREAT JOB, Pam!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️ …… It would be interesting to see if the new tatler lids worked as well as the ones you did…….😊 This would be a fun science experiment!!💡

[@jeanniemacadams7983]

Y'all just have too much fun! Thanks for great education AND laughs 💋💓

[@davidedgerly]

I love your videos and you have taught me so much. Thank you so much for all your hard work bringing this information to the world.👍

[@bethcanada7375]

I am so happy that your canning jars are still sealed. Going to give this a try. God Bless.

[@dottiecunningham2152]

Bless you. Thanks

[@danniemcdonald4903]

YAY! on the Tattler experiment. I'm sure they are upset because they didn't think of the alternative themselves first. LOL I'm sorry that you couldn't revive your Yeti, but you gave it your best shot. Thanks for keeping it real and showing the failures along with the successes.

[@joannmccaffrey822]

I watched a video yesterday that talk about Lehmanns lids. Apparently they made a lid called” superb” they say it pops and is useable 4 ever!

[@BigRedNavyChick]

Hello lovely lady! :D That's fantastic, what a great idea, using their seals with your previously used lids is brilliant. :D Jim, you're a hoot, that confetti was so fun! :D God bless you and your wonderful family. Have an awesome day my fabulous friend! :D
