I'm sure they exist. One of my favorite shows as a kid was a "20 questions" kind of game, and "Is it bigger than a breadbox" was one of the favorite questions. However, when I did eat bread (which was years and years ago) I didn't keep it in a breadbox: I kept it in the fridge. Bread was never a favorite of mine and it turns out it makes me very ill, so my favorite starch was (and is) corn tortillas. I've seen breadboxes for sale in catalogs though.
We do have a cookie jar though, though it's just a plastic thing with a sealable top these days. And I have a little jar for my tea bags. I didn't know there were special jars for that? Sounds like a very British thing!

Really, don't they have breadboxes where you live, Heather? There used to be one in every kitchen here in Britain - still is in many, including mine: just a container with the word "bread" written on the outside, to keep bread in! We have cookie jars too, but they're usually labelled "biscuits". And of course tea caddies.
