When I was canning jelly I used the "jelly" sized jars. They really weren't big enough if my whole family was eating it, but I could see it's contents lasting long enough for a single person to eat it up. From what I have been told about canning it is inadvisable to use store type jars, like that of babyfood. You may find something that says differently, so don't completely take my word for it. I just remember it being mentioned somewhere. I think it is because you can't find new lids for those things.
