Yup. Thankfully, some folks still value tradition over their bottom line, and glass has the advantage of not leaching weird chemicals into the food or making it smell like plastic. This is sort of important when you're dealing with aggressive preservatives like vinegar, sugar, salt, and alcohol. I expect that clear glass is cheaper than white, too, which is why milk glass jars are rarely seen these days.
