A Quirk?

I make it no secret I like food.  But with that, it seems I like just certain foods.  I have friends who eat just about anything, but me, not so much.  And it’s a topic for another blog about how I don’t like for my food to touch, except with certain combinations.  So, I say all that, to get to this.  Why is seedless jam an option?  I use to be a lover of jelly but somewhere in my audltness, I made the switch to jam.  And I’ve landed on blackberry being my favorite.  So, enter 2018 when it seems I started seeing less and less if blackberry jam with seeds and more seedless.  NOOOOOO!!!!  If i didn’t want seeds I would get jelly.  I want jam, and jam has seeds, right?  I mean that’s how i remember it growing up.  As a matter of fact, until just in the last few years, that’s what i thought the big difference was between jam and jelly,  Jam, seeds, Jelly, no seeds.  But now, all you can find in the big stores, seedless jam.  yuck.  A listener told me where I can still get blackberry jam in abundance, so thank you Vicki.

Do you have any weird food quirks?  I would love to hear them.
