Sorry , I see you already did that!

Use a bottle opener to pry up the edge until the seal breaks. Easy.

One of my friends gave me this jar opener:

No jar has dared to defy me since.

I do this too, except I tap around in a circle.

Was it the three cheese pasta sauce? Same thing happened to me a few nights ago. We just had to eat with butter and parm b/c none of us could get the jar open.

Was it a diet spaghetti sauce? If so...genius!

PP here.. this usually works for me, and I'm a very petite asian female. Not much muscle on my arms

Hit the lid with a butter knife and put some dings in the edges of the lid then twist.

This. So easy!

Bang the edge of the lid on the counter. And start working out.

Do you have a beer bottle opener?

Slide the pointed end around the rim until you find a spot where you can stick it under. Press down gently.

It will pop as it releases the air lock, then open right up
