When trying to twist open the lid of jar that’s particularly difficult, I find that scrunching up my face in a forced angry-smile really helps.

I just threaten them with physical violence. Almost always works.

Two male driven household solutions:

Use a bit of sandpaper in your hand around the lid. (sanding side towards the lid. A mistake you only will make once)
You will be surprised how easy that little extra grip opens that jar.

If you don't have to re-close the jar after usage, this works fine too:

Once there is air in the jar, the lid will open easily because the vacuum has disappeared.

Haven't tried the sandpaper one yet but normally if it's really hard to open I turn the jar over and tap the top of the lid on the counter a couple of times. That seems to loosen it a bit so I can open it. If I can't get it open at that point, I usually give it to my husband, but I'll try the sandpaper trick.

Run hot water over the lid so the metal expands at a different rate than the glass.

This trick usually works well for me. And for that rare jar that still won't open, I just toss it back into the pantry and change the dinner menu for that day.

There is an odd rule in the state liquor franchises here, or was 10 years ago anyway. If you break a bottle of liquor and the seal of the top is still intact on the glass, the bottle is returnable.

I tried the world's first no-kill, lab-grown chicken burger

Exclusive: At a ‘test restaurant’ in Israel, the meat is grown in vats behind a glass screen. Could it be a taste of the future?
