I love recycling jars but the sticky glue from the label drives me crazy. I had tried other methods, soaked and scrubbed, however the glue was stubborn and would not come off.
The following method worked:
Soak the jar in hot water for 15 minutes, peel off the label and rinse any food scraps.
Dry the jar, coat the sticky glue with peanut butter (smooth). Set aside for a minimum of 30 minutes.

Coat the sticky glue on the jar in peanut butter
Wash the jar in warm soapy water to remove the peanut butter and sticky label.

Clean jars ready for use
Tip
If the jar still smells of it’s previous contents add 1 tablespoon of bicarbonate soda, put on the lid and sit overnight. Rinse and then use.
