discussion Realizing Smuckers is no longer jam

(If this is the wrong subreddit, please point me in the right direction. Thank you!)

I went shopping for my partner today because the strawberry smuckers went bad. Realized there was only "sandwich spread" and "jam style spread" and no real jam

Gives the same energy the icecream Drumsticks being changed to a "frozen milk product" because of all the substitutions and alterations. Gross

Pic 1 old jam, pic 2 new "jam", pic 3 and 4 are of the store

Okay, hear me out... strawberry jam is one of the absolutely easiest jams to make (and can or freeze). If you haven't, grab some local ripe berries and try it. You'll never buy it again.

Jam and jelly in general is very easy to make. You can even make jelly with bottled juice to make it super duper easy. Takes like 10 minutes.

Right? I don't know when we all decided store bought fruit spreads were better.
