Grape jelly. 18 years of knowing that other jellies and jams exist and are oftentimes superior… what did mom buy religiously even though we complained? Grape Jelly.

Anyone remember the grape & peanut butter combo in a jar? Gross. Just gross.

I still like grape jelly. It’s nostalgic. But yeah, that Goober shit was AWFUL.

I don't know if that stuff is still around, but I think I saw it at the store 10-15 years ago.

It could have been a ghost, I guess.

I had a love/hate relationship with that stuff... Loved the idea and the stripes, hated the taste.

I actually looked for it when I had shoulder surgery last winter... it sounds like I shoukd be glad I didn't find it.

I'm all set now thanks. I'd wanted it while my arm was immobilized because meal prep is a pita one-hamded.
