This is the Most Popular Product from Indiana

According to A Lot Travel, the most popular product that comes from Indiana is none other than mason jars. These mason jars come from the Ball Corporation, which was once headquartered in Muncie. That's where they got the ball rolling (no pun intended) with glass mason jars. There's still a Ball factory here in Indiana, even though their headquarters are now in Colorado. Here's what A Lot Travel said:

Indiana's Ball Corporation is renowned for producing the iconic Mason jar, which have canned and preserved food for generations. Born in Indiana in the 1850s, the Mason Jar revolutionized food storage. The Ball Corporation continues to be a leader in innovative jar design and production. From the classic wide-mouth jars perfect for jams to the modern freezer-safe varieties, Indiana's Mason Jars have secured their place in kitchens across the nation.
