Sometimes I heat it to get it flowing again, after being refrigerated. The cheap plastic jars around here have that foil seal on the lid. When it is opened, undoubtedly there is a metal strip remaining on the edge of the jar. When I stick that into my RadarRange, it always arcs and sparks, dang it.

   Because of the high oil content.

   The foil can easily be removed, (with a finger nail) I always do for every jar that I open.
