Somewhere in my garden reading was a suggestion to use these for
storing seeds. There were also instructions on how to easily remove
the labels and the sticky stuff left behind. Was it here by chance? I
have tried the plastic version of Goo Be Gone and it doesn't work
well. It seems like it was something easy like ammonia or witch
hazel ??
Anyone have an idea?

If you have tried soap and water and that fails try cooking oil (after the
label is dry), it will dissolve many of the gums that are not water soluble.
