Pickled Cabbage Vent (seriously!!)

hehe no worries, thought you'd come back with a stabbed hand and i'd feel guilty for a minute. Gotta say though, pickled cabbage? Sounds rather nasty to me, but everyone
has their own taste i suppose.0 -
I have a small bottle of ginger beer with the same problem, it's been in the fridge for a week as no-one can get the lid off.
Probably just as well, there's only one so it saves any fighting over it.Herman - MP for all!0 -

I'm thinking of taking it down to the local garage and asking if they have any air tools they could use to open it with.
The easiest thing to do would be buy another jar but I am NOT letting this beat me now on principle!!! LOL oh god i'm still laughing.:rotfl:
My OH would be overjoyed if he still worked in a garage and got asked to do it, maybe you should try that. Probably make their day!
Having said that, he could probably open it, but I'm in Dorset and that's a long way, even for satanic cabbageMum of several with a twisted sense of humour and a laundry obsession:o

Pickled cabbage [esp if you grew and pickled it yourself] is fantastic. Even better is pickled courgette. Scrummy.If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.0 -

I agree.
I hope my pickled cabbage predicament has given everyone a giggle at least if i've not converted them into lovers of the food0 -
Guess i'll have to give it a try now, if I can get the jar open....0

Unfortunately the lid came off with such a POP, I dropped the whole thing on the floor of the garage and i now need a new jar of pickled cabbage...LOL
Thank you for all the ideas though

OMG I've just been to put the broken glass in the recycling bin and 2 of the neighbours were looking at me rather strangely. Wasn't till i walked past the hallway mirror that i realised I have white tracksuit bottoms on, and the back of them is covered from the juice from the jar.
I jumped over the jar as i dropped it and it must have splashed me. I look like i'm covered in blood!!!!
My poor neighbours probably now think i'm a serial killer.0
