Random Food Thread #315- Jams and Jellies

[Kury Wagner]

Note 1: Alright, I'm just guessing on the number, but hey, it's gotta be close to that by now.

Note 2: This isn't about cults.

Meticulously, I just made a delectable peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Not much of a fan of peanut butter, I only use a little to mellow out the sweetness of the jelly or jam. As I was fumbling with the pain that is known as jelly, I thought to myself, 'oi, TZ needs a new thread.' Now, here we are! =D

I'm not even bothering with a poll because there are just far too many choices, but I want to know- what's your favourite type of jelly/jam/marmalade? Least favourite?

I don't really care for marmalades, since they're mostly citrus fruits. I also dislike gooseberry jelly. However, I adore raspberry and mixed berry jams. I love fresh jam, from farmer's markets or that ilk. The kind with big chunks of berries right in it. Yummy.

On with it, children.

[Kuroba]

Mmm, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. I love those, my dad is great at making them. I love grape jelly, it's really delicious. I also love strawberry jam on toast, even though I don't have that a lot. It's so sweet yet tart, delicious, especially when fresh. Marmalade is okay, it's a bit too citrus-y for me. I'll have it on a slice of bread at times, though.

[Boy Wonder]

I have recently found the joys of grape jam.

[EarlOtis]

I do not eat jams nor jellies.

[Ishtar]

I do not eat jams nor jellies.
Same. I don't really like them, to be honest. I prefer butter or cream cheese on my bread related food.

[Twilight]

Strawberry and Boysenberry are what you'll usually find in my fridge. They're my all-purpose jams that I use in toasts, plain croissants, and sandwiches.

For scones I rather like Raspberry, and I've been using Apricot and Cherry preserves in baked goods.

I've never been a fan of Grape jelly. I can tolerate it, but it wouldn't be my pick. Marmalades I don't really like either, but I'll eat it with seafood like Coconut Shrimp.

[J'onn J'onzz]

Strawberry Jam.

Not a fan of peanut butter??? I like peanut butter and jam, but not together. Peanut butter and honey is good stuff though.

[Kury Wagner]

Strawberry Jam.No. =(

Not a fan of peanut butter??? I like peanut butter and jam, but not together. Peanut butter and honey is good stuff though.Oh yes! I used to love peanut butter and honey sandwiches when I was little. xD

[EarlOtis]

I would agree with the cream cheese thing. Nothing beats a nice bagle and cream cheese.

And on the peanut butter side, I like peanut butter. I can't eat it in like large amounts at a time cause it makes me gag but if I just nibble/lick the peanut butter it's good. Also good for sandwitches, no jelly/Jam though, just PB.

[jeff_iz_XLent]

'oi, TZ needs a new thread.

For myself,I like me my PEANUT BUTTER,GRAPE JELLY TIME..

[Rolling Cloud]

Grape and/or Strawberry Jelly for me. =]

[Zubby]

I loke almost any kind of berry jam, especually raspberry, blueberry abd strawberry. I like orange marmelade too.

I bought a jar of fig jam with orange once, it was delicious.

[SuperStantzio]

my all time favorite Jam is Grape and I use it when I make toast. I don't use it when I make PB sandwiches because having both on bread makes me gag and dizzy. I'm also a fan of peanut butter and honey sandwiches, too! :D

[purplehairedwonder]

Strawberry jam + smooth peanut butter = luff
I would agree with the cream cheese thing. Nothing beats a nice bagle and cream cheese.Jam and cream cheese is an amazing combination <3

[Bubblegum Girl]

Strawberry and Raspberry jam/jelly I can go with. I really don't like marmalade either. I usually like jam on my toast or bagels. I rarely have them with peanut butter sandwiches, since I like peanut butter & cheese sandwiches better. :sweat:

[Chris Wood]

So does anyone eat this stuff?

Yuck.

[Katsumara]

Ew...

Grape Jelly/Strawberry Jam/Apple Jelly is ftw.

[ToOn~g@l]

I like jams, my grandmother actually makes them from scratch, she makes the best strawberry jams ever. She used to give me a jar every christmas, until the dog discovered them. :sad:

I also like raspberry Jelly, raspberry is awesome.

I like peanut butter too especially in fluffernutters, mmmmm....delicious.

[EarlOtis]

Maybe fluff is like that marshmallow fluff that comes in jars?

*Ha! See I was right!*

[Kury Wagner]

marsh mellows!
... my science, Samantha, that's disgusting. You put that on bread? Dx

[XOMiss_Samantha]

... my science, Samantha, that's disgusting. You put that on bread? Dx

Course! Tons of people do. It's delicious

[EarlOtis]

I would have to agree it does not look like...food...or anything that should be food.

[Ishtar]

Course! Tons of people do. It's delicious
Including me.:p I used to eat it all the time.

[Kury Wagner]

Including me.:p I used to eat it all the time.You guys are just totally made for each other!

/dodges Sam's wrath.

[Ishtar]

/dodges Sam's wrath.
You just have no luff for Fluff. That's all.:(

[XOMiss_Samantha]

You guys are just totally made for each other!

/dodges Sam's wrath.

*trips kury as she dodges wrath and watches her fall to the ground on her face*
hmph!

Fuff is pretty good, though. It doesn't look good, but it tastes alot better than it's appearance.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

I can't stand Jelly at all. Just doesn't taste good to me. :\

*trips kury as she dodges wrath and watches her fall to the ground on her face*
hmph!

*catches Sam, and then sends you to another dimension*

Don't mess with her, dammit. You have to answer to me.

[Kury Wagner]

No, no... the thing is, I love marshmallow fluff on it's own, or in Rice Krispies treats, buttttttt... on bread, that sounds positively disgusting. Maybe on Kuwa, but bread? I dunno. =\

I can't stand Jelly at all. Just doesn't taste good to me. :\How did I not know this? You should've told me this. >.<

[XOMiss_Samantha]

rofl. You're truly terrifying.

But at least you don't like Jelly. You get a star for that.

[KuwabaraTheMan]

How did I not know this? You should've told me this. >.<

I have. In fact, I recall you reacting with shock the last time I told you, too. There might have been multiple other times I told you this.

Maybe if you remembered my words more! ><

*runs off crying*

...

I think I just got motivation to change my mind on jelly. ><

[EarlOtis]

She doesn't remember anything I tell her either. I spent 10 minutes trying to convince her that my Neighbor Carlton wasn't a dog and his dog wasn't a cow....

[Kury Wagner]

Maybe if you remembered my words more! ><

*runs off crying*
I REMEMBER ENOUGH!! ><

/hands a tissue.

... not like that.

I think I just got motivation to change my mind on jelly. ><k, good. I'll send you jam for Yule. =P Let's see, you'll like strawberry, I believe...

She doesn't remember anything I tell her either. I spent 10 minutes trying to convince her that my Neighbor Carlton wasn't a dog and his dog wasn't a cow....You were confusing. =[

Question- do cows like jelly? o.O

[EarlOtis]

You were confusing. =[

Question- do cows like jelly? o.OI was not confusing, I said my neighbor Carlton was walking his dog Cledus and the dog was so big he had to go to Farm and Fleet and get a neck strap for a cow,instead of a collar...

I would say cows would like jelly. Cows like everything.

[The Guitar Slayer]

American Jell-o = British jelly
American Jelly = British jam
American Jam = British preserves

I was an America grape jelly person for most of my life til I discovered the wonder of cream tea and scones in Penzance in England. Then I was a strawberry jam and clotted cream person. So yay for all of the above.

[ToOn~g@l]

No, no... the thing is, I love marshmallow fluff on it's own, or in Rice Krispies treats, buttttttt... on bread, that sounds positively disgusting. Maybe on Kuwa, but bread? I dunno. =\


How do you really know its disgusting, you haven't tried it so right now I demand you go out and get a jar of marshmellow fluff and put it on your bread. White bread not that wheat crap, it doesn't tast as good on wheat crap.

Also around here we have these honey sticks about the size of a straw, they are really good and I just had one with raspberry in it, oooh that was yummy. and they're only 30 cents each too.

[The Falcon]

dammit, kury! now i have to go grocery shopping specifically for strawberry jam

cravings suck

[Wolfie~Giri]

I do like peanut butter and jelly... Just not together.

Like say a Reeces cup or a peanut butter brownie, or jelly on an English muffin (And Jam too).

So no, I'm not a Peanut ButterXJelly shipper. :p

[KuwabaraTheMan]

dammit, kury! now i have to go grocery shopping specifically for strawberry jam

I dunno about you, but I'd never crave Strawberry Jam. I always preferred people who didn't act like jerks.

lol. he did have to go and name himself after a good preservative, eh? bah. the actual spread tastes delicious... not sure about the person, though

[G. Wen]

jam/jelly/marmalade>butter (butter is just too fattening)

I also have a liking to "odd" jams and jellys, such as mint, chili peper, etc., and tapanades. You're supposed to put these on meats, vegetables, and other savory foods instead of bread. I know it sounds weird, but paired with the right food, it tastes downright delicious.

My theory about Goobber is that it's for people too lazy to spread stuff on their bread twice, or for people who get confused with the "mutiple" steps of making a PBJ. It doesn't taste bad, good thing to carry if you go camping as it lessens the amount of stuff you carry. (I've done this.)

Who here liked the peanut butter with honey? How do you eat that without getting your jaw glued shut?
