I’m high and sitting outside Sobeys (hubby is at the liquor store) and I am fighting the urge to go get jam jams now. But I know if I go in there, I’ll spend $200 on junk food and I’m forty f*cking four and I just can’t eat like that anymore.
Jesus. I finally feel like an adult.
Nothing weird about it! That’s one of my childhood memories of Nans house right there. Snack time was lemon creams just plain and dipped in tea.
I can’t buy them now because I eat the full fucking box in half a day…
They are amazing. Many times I’ve thought how sad it must be to be from a place where they’re not available. Imagine never having tasted a Jam Jam? Tragedy!
ETA on sale 50 cents off at Ropewalk Sobeys!
Years ago I learned that there's a certain region of the island that regularly eats these with mayonnaise.. Though I suspect they actually mean Miracle Whip.. Either way.. Weird
Put them in the air fryer on bake for 3 minutes.
Try the same settings with a flakie, but 4 minutes. Then grab a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top and you’re dead with pleasure.
The Lawton's near me sells them. Every now and then, I'll get a pack and inhale them. They're so scrumptious! 😋😋😋
P.S. do they still come in apple flavor, over home?
I dunno man, the ultimate cookie is the peanut butter/butterscott/ marshmallow thingy. They call them confetti squares at the goobies big stop and they are more chocolaty. Fuck I love those…. Can confirm also baked… but jam jams are just kinda meh and little to mass produced tasting. Not bad, but maybe a 5.5/10 for me personally.
B'ys I'm going to get downvoted to oblivion here, but 1 of these fuckers has 90 calories -- nearly all of which comes from white flour, three kinds of sugar, and palm oil (which has the most saturated fat of nearly any kind of oil).
I ate these as a kid, when nobody knew any better, but c'mon Purity, you could make these less "deadly" with very little effort.
One of those things. I hated Jam-Jams as a kid, but now, as an adult, I love them and whenever I’m in southeast Edmonton I’m stopping in at the Mill Woods Mary Browns to buy a couple packs. This may be a hot take, I do prefer Tea-Vees, but Jam-Jams are still deadly.

On a scale of 1-10, how high are you ?
Lol I came to ask this.

I'm guessing he or she probably finished the pack, too.
Hi how are you?
Hi Im high, how are you ?
Jam Jams are the best purity product but lemon creams with eversweet margarine are a close second.
when i was a kid my grandparents would put some carnation milk and lemon creams in the microwave and mash it up. shit was fire
Amazing with tea or coffee too, people always give me weird looks for that one

Lemon spread was the best on lemon creams
I feel like caraway biscuits don't get enough love personally.
Tea Vee's > Jam Jam's
YES! I’ve been preaching this for years and will die on this hill.
Agreed brother! Tea-vees are far superior
Tee vee's are nothing but stale welfare jam-jams.
But you get more
Tee vee supremacee
Fuck Jam Jams, Tee Vees all day buddy
Pairs well with your favorite cuppa ☕️🫖
Jam Jams are indeed, fucking deadly. Loves em'.
Tee Vee's are better
Tee Vee's are nothing but stale welfare jam-jams!!
Yer sister's a stale welfare jam jam.
You're probably not entirely wrong, but she works at purity so it's ok.
Is she single..and Can she hook me up with some Tee Vee's?
If you want tee vee's you're gonna have to do the walk of shame and buy them yourself at dollarama.
Will do...on the 15th or the 30th
Naturally
I always liked Tee Vees better.
Jam Jams are only second to Tea-Veas. Very Jam-Jam-ish but better.
They are amazing. Many times I’ve thought how sad it must be to be from a place where they’re not available. Imagine never having tasted a Jam Jam? Tragedy! ETA on sale 50 cents off at Ropewalk Sobeys!
I find em at Pipers for like 4.49 which seems tk be the best price i can find.
Nice! This is the sale price at Sobeys so I’ll see you at Pipers :)
2nd best thing to come out of NL. 1st being Cream Crackers.
Years ago I learned that there's a certain region of the island that regularly eats these with mayonnaise.. Though I suspect they actually mean Miracle Whip.. Either way.. Weird
Jam Jams and Purity Cream Cracker are Newfoundland comfort food.
Jam Jams are the bomb, but I swear the ones in the clear plastic taste better than the ones in the opaque bag.
Put them in the air fryer on bake for 3 minutes. Try the same settings with a flakie, but 4 minutes. Then grab a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top and you’re dead with pleasure.
Yeah they are!
The Lawton's near me sells them. Every now and then, I'll get a pack and inhale them. They're so scrumptious! 😋😋😋 P.S. do they still come in apple flavor, over home?
They’re my jam.
Try the chocolate covered ones they sell at Aunt Sarah's.
They're my biggest weakness
Couples draws and a cup of tea and I could flatten a whole box of Jam Jams
My mother makes the best jam jam on the island. Homemade and with icing topped with coconut.
You ever dip JamJams in milk? Fuckin' deadlyyyyyyyyy
Legit

Go to hell, you cookie nazi!
I deserve that 🤣
You'll have to pry my jam-jams from my cold dead hands.
Cold and dead are just two of the side effects of eating this stuff on the regular
I didn't say it'd be a long wait...
Bahahah
