Jars sound like a great idea, but bring up some more practical questions.

When reusing jars, I assume they would have to be washed fairly well. Do you have a fancy industrial strength dishwasher to quickly do this to ensure safety?

And we all know that the best milk comes in jugs, but I'm willing to switch to jars if the environmental impact is favorable, but I have no idea. How does it affect the environment to make a plastic bag/jug versus making and washing a jar? If you can present some hard data that this difference of yours actually is good for the Earth, I think that would help compel people to more strongly consider it.

It's an interesting idea of course, just with many practical details that I'd want to know about before signing up.
