That's me. I can't stand bits in orange juice. I don't eat jam but I'd be the same with that. They've got no business being there, and clearly lots of people agree otherwise they wouldn't produce 'no bits' versions.

It's no big deal.

Bloody hell, you found that quickly! It looks like just about every and any topic that has existed, is already on PH.
Being the 'first world', I couldn't be bothered to see if it existed before I posted!!

Haha! But that is a first world approach to eating isn't it? Which of course you are entitled to, and clearly there is a demand. But surely only through being a 'first world' issue?

I will stop this thread now and add my 'first world jam' to the original thread!

This morning I decided to make some toast. When I went to the cupboard to get the jam, the label hit me right between the eyes...'Hartley's NO BITS strawberry jam'. Some poor little spud in the third world has no food for a week and we've got whinging little fkers who say to mum 'there's bits in my jam/marmalade, pickle'. Snivelling, ungrateful, spoilt little bds. My daughter will be one of them, or we'd have normal jam in the cupboard with, and get this, bits of strawberry in it!Shock, horror...'BITS OF STRAWBERRY IN STRAWBERRY JAM. WHAT THE fk'S THAT DOING IN THERE'!!!

So, what kind of first world problems have you found recently?

Then there's the one about people buying Hartley's Jam when Tesco Value Jam would do... there are people in the third world who'd be grateful to have Tesco Value Jam on Tesco Value White Bread and there you are swanning about with your posh jam on organic bread.

Ridiculous comparison. Make or supplier of jam doesn't come into it, nor type of bread. I was merely pointing out, hopefully in a humorous way, that seeds in jam are in my opinion, a first world problem. Nothing deeper than that really.

I always sieve my jam when making it - although it has been a while since I made strawberry jam as I usually use blackberries.

My reply was also meant with humour.

My apologies Hoofy, it's so easy to get the wrong end of the stick with text! Especially when on PH we witness so many people caught up in rows over nothing!

I had a workmate who's kids would not eat unbranded breakfast cereal. Worse still they would not eat the cereal if it had been opened for a few days and became less than crispy.
