  When something is put into a can, it’s considered canned.

  When something is put into a jar, it’s considered jarred.

      Mayhaps in english. Maybe he is not form an english speaking country. I myself am not and canning here is exclusively for metal cans and jarring has a separate word.

        I find it jarring to hear canning in glass containers called jarring.

  He’s obviously talking about metal cans instead of glass jars, not the manufacturing process called canning.
