Smucker's




Please forgive me Smucker's I will never cheat on you again!

Sometimes you can get away with buying the store brand or off brand items and they still taste close to the same or sometimes better. I on the other hand found out the hard way by cheating on my favorite brand of jelly, jams, and preserves. I decided to save a little money I would go with the store brand jelly.

Yesterday my husband asked me while preparing his lunch if I was using old jelly that had expired. I told him no that it was a store brand kind. He just looked at me with a shocked expression and told me that it tasted horrible and he thought that it was expired. He said he was just mentioning it because he was hoping that was the last of it. I said that it couldn't be that bad. He asked have you tried it? No I had not...

Well last night I couldn't make sandwhiches because the bread was frozen so I had to wait till this morning until the bread was thawed. As I was making my husband's sandwich I thought to myself "there is no way this jelly could be as bad as he says it is." So I decided to lick the knife when I was done making his sandwich...

Oh my gosh! This was the worst tasting jelly in the world! Gross!!! I know it sounds like I am just making stuff up but let me tell you it tasted so bad that I had to check the expiration date. It doesn't expire until September of 2010! Next time I will believe my husband when he says that something is gross. Yuck!

So from now on Smucker's is my choice on jellies, jams and preserves. I will not cheat on you ever again Smucker's!
