Grape Jelly sandwich, hold the grape jelly.

Today’s strip sponsored by Welch’s grape jelly.

I used not to realize that jelly in America is what the British know as jam. Jelly in Britain is the same thing as Jell-O in America. So, when I was younger, I used to think that Americans would slice up wobbly Jell-O and put it in their sandwiches :D

Don’t want anything bread to interfere with the flavor of it.

I guess I’m the only one who doesn’t like grape jelly.

We don’t have grape jelly in S. Spain. The standard jellys are peach, strawberry, raspberry and greengage. In the 90s they were putting the excess production of grapejuice into boxed juices; you’d “peach and grape nectar”, “pear and grape nectar” but no one has ever considered grape jelly.

Jelly (in the U.S.) is made only from fruit juice. Jam is made from actual fruit. Even better is fruit spread which is less than 50% sugar, which is required for jam.

Woodstock speaks!

“only person”?

Well, I eat cheese with cheese, so I don’t see what the problem is.

Never thought I’d be kink-shamed by Sparky, of all people.

Goldangit.

Bacon wrapped in bacon, with a side of bacon.

Woodstock doesn’t look like an Oriole…

HUH??

That’s sure to give his cellulite bulges.

He forgot the bread!

I prefer cream cheese.

Like the time Honey Boo Boo ordered Ribs with a side of Ribs,,

Grape jelly with Ritz crackers, yum.

My wife can easily have butter with butter. She buys the real farm made local, costs a bit more, but my daughter is mad because she herself is now a ‘Butter Snob’ and that is expensive.

That’s me when it comes to peanut butter.

Can’t criticize good taste.

A favorite childhood memory: grape jelly on one of grandma’s homemade biscuits for an afternoon snack.

It could initiate a new fad.

A cautionary note. I heard that grapes are toxic to dogs.

So Snoopy, better stay far away from Woodstock’s grape jelly!

I love grape jelly on scrambled eggs.

When I was young, I liked grape jelly on grape jelly too. It was the only jelly we had.

sounds messy

I eats me spinach with spinach on it!

Well since we’re now talking sandwiches, someone has to say it: “I’ll have a Spam, Spam, and Spam sandwich!” A tip of the hat to Monty Python.

Raspberry jam or apricot. My dad’s guava jelly was heaven on earth

The bread is just a delivery system for the good stuff. A spoon works just as well.

“Person”. Lol

Woodstock doesn’t look a bit like a Baltimore Oriole.

Woodstock can have my share of grape jelly. Growing up poor, grape jelly was the only jelly mom bought, because you could get a large jar of grape jelly for the same price of a smaller jar of any other kind of jelly, jam, or preserve. Grape was also the flavor that they made for kids medicines back then.

Me! Mom says she gave me piece of toast with grape jam. I licked it off and handed her the toast saying “More!”Didn’t work.

Woodstock got my taste..
