I've been doing a lot of research but haven't been able to figure this out: <br /><br />Please tell me what is the difference between the glass lids and glass inserts that you keep mentioning? Are you using the terms interchangeably and if not, what's the difference? I'm not sure whether my glass is a lid or an insert! I had assumed it was a lid...but now I don't know. Can both be used on any of the old gem or improved gem jars or were they made to fit specifically with their corresponding jars and what would that be?<br /><br />Also, I came across the brand called "Best" for glass lids.
