Shel, I would jury rig a sprouting jar out of a Nalgene or other high-end plastic jar, just to assure non-breakage.

Other than that there's no reason not to do it. Even if the jar should tip over while you're actually driving, there's not enough liquid in it to matter.
I'll certainly look into the options when I make my next trip.

I wonder if i can grow some lettuce here at home in a similar fashion as growing sprouts. I've seen butter lettuce in some supermarkets that are sold in plastic containers and which seem to be alive. Having had truly fresh picked lettuce (and other veggies and fruit) the stuff available in the market is poor quality by comparison.
