Can canning lids be reused?!


Question: Can canning lids be reused!?
I was just wondering!. Up till now I never reused the lids when canning!. However, When I canned this year, there is several cans we used within days of canning and when the lids came off there was no visual damage and that got me thinking!.
Can I re-use these lids and rings!?
BTW they are all BALL jars, rings and lids!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Jars and Rings can be re-used!. You need new lids each time!. They will not seal properly otherwise!. They are not overly expensive, so in the risk of food safety, and health of your friends and family, invest in the new lids!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
