I have seen some really cool cookie jars lately, but I learned in the UK they are called biscuit jars or barrels.
In the United Kingdom, they are known as biscuit barrels or biscuit jars.

Cookie jar
Cookie jars are utilitarian or decorative ceramic or glass jars often found in American and Canadian kitchens. In the United Kingdom, they are known as biscuit barrels or biscuit jars. If they are cans made out of tinplate, they are called biscuit tins. While used to store actual cookies or biscuits, they are sometimes employed to store other edible items like candy or dog treats, or non-edible items like currency (in the manner of a piggy bank). Cookie jars, also known as biscuit barrels or jars, have been used in England since the latter part of the 18th century. They were often made of glass with metal lids.
Plain of Jars
The Plain of Jars (Lao: ທົ່ງໄຫຫິນ ) is a megalithic archaeological landscape in Laos. It consists of thousands of stone jars scattered around the upland valleys and the lower foothills of the central plain of the Xiangkhoang Plateau. The jars are mostly arranged in clusters ranging in number from one to several hundred. The Xieng Khouang Plateau is located at the northern end of the Annamese Cordillera, the principal mountain range of Indochina. French researcher Madeleine Colani concluded in 1930 that the jars were associated with prehistoric burial practices. Excavation by Lao and Japanese archaeologists in the intervening years has supported this interpretation with the discovery of human remains, burial goods and ceramics around the jars.
Mason jar
A Mason jar, named after John Landis Mason who first invented and patented it in 1858, is a molded glass jar used in home canning to preserve food. The jar's mouth has a screw thread on its outer perimeter to accept a metal ring (or "band"). The band, when screwed down, presses a separate stamped tin-plated steel disc-shaped lid against the jar's rim. An integral rubber ring on the underside of the lid creates a hermetic seal. The bands and lids usually come with new jars, but they are also sold separately. While the bands are reusable, the lids are intended for single use when canning. Largely supplanted by other products and methods for commercial canning, such as tin cans and plastic containers, glass jars and metal lids are still commonly used in home canning.
Cookie Crisp
Cookie Crisp is a breakfast cereal that attempts to recreate the taste of chocolate chip cookies. It is manufactured by General Mills in the United States and Cereal Partners (under the Nestlé brand) in other countries. Introduced in 1977, it was originally manufactured by Ralston Purina until they sold the trademark to General Mills in 1997, who soon after changed the recipe. Double Chocolate Cookie Crisp was a double chocolate-flavored variety of Cookie Crisp introduced in 2007. Peanut Butter Cookie Crisp was also introduced. It has the taste of peanut butter cookies. In July 2009, Cookie Crisp Sprinkles were introduced.
The Collection (30 Rock)
"The Collection" is the third episode of NBC's second season of "30 Rock", and the twenty-fourth episode overall. It was written by producer Matt Hubbard and directed by producer Don Scardino, and first aired on October 18, 2007 in the United States. In the episode, Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin) hires a private detective, Len (Steve Buscemi), to investigate his past; Angie Jordan (Sherri Shepherd) asks Liz Lemon (Tina Fey) to help her watch Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan); and Kenneth Parcell (Jack McBrayer) attempts to help Jenna Maroney (Jane Krakowski) gain weight by insulting her. The episode features a reference to "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip", which was compared to "30 Rock" because of their similar premise.
Jars of Clay (album)
Jars of Clay is the first full-length studio album by Christian rock group Jars of Clay. It was released on October 24, 1995 by Essential Records. The album has been highly acclaimed, being one of few Christian albums of the mid-1990s to achieve platinum status. As the group's debut album, "Jars of Clay" introduced many internationally to the group and established the group due to their distinctive style. Jars of Clay's eponymous first full-length album is characterized by a combination of drum loops and acoustic guitar strumming that would become an early trademark of the band. Strings are also used prominently in most of the songs.
Chocolate-coated marshmallow treats
Chocolate-coated marshmallow treats are produced in different variations around the world, with several countries claiming to have invented it or hailing it as their "national confection". Originally the treat was made using cream (hence the Danish name "flødeboller" (cream buns)), but the filling was later made from egg whites to help industrialize production and improve shelf life. Many languages used to call these treats by phrases or compounds using a counterpart to negro (e.g. "negro's kiss", "negro bun"); most but not all of these are increasingly being avoided, especially in formal writing, in favour of replacements such as "choco-kiss".
