Alto sax reeds on alto clarinet?

Hello, size-wise alto sax reeds seem to fit the mouthpiece of an alto clarinet. Is something to say against the usage of alto sax reeds?

Just tried Yamaha 5C mouthpiece with 3.5 Fibracell Premium artificial reed. Works very well, so it seems.
Any other recommendations for that MPs reed-wise?

A few months ago, I mistakenly bought a box of alto clarinet reeds. It was the only box on the shelf among all the sax reeds, and even the shopkeeper was surprised it was there. But they play just fine on sax, so I'm guessing the reverse might also be true.
