"For richness of general tone I don’t say that it has a rival. But for delicacy of modulation--for what one may call the ‘harmonics’ of flavour--give me good old raspberry-jam--"

Jok'n'Al's Grape Jam:

Ah, now this is more like it. This jelly, imported from New Zealand, is not only free of fat but also very pleasing to the sensitive pallete. According to their website, (what amazing machines computers are, yes?) Jok'n'Al have condensed pure taste satisfaction into one little 10 oz. $3.99 jar. Mmm, delicious. This is good on bread, toast, biscuits, with tea, any sort of light beverage...it is ideal in any given situation. Being a fine jam taster myself, I have encountered lots of jams from around the world. But this jam...this jam, I can honestly say, is one of my absolute favorites. A purchase is highly recommended.

...a researcher from the Learning Research and Development Center at the University of Pittsburgh called Jonathan Schooler wanted to see if too much deliberation could actually impede mental functions—including memory, decision making, intuition and insight. He first of all tested this in relation to simple choices (in this case, people’s preferences for one of five jams). His subjects were asked to rate five jams (unbeknown to the subjects, already judged to be 1st, 11th, 24th, 32nd and 44th out of 50 by a panel of experts). Some subjects were told to think carefully about their reactions and preferences—and to explain the reasons for their choices. Others were left to their own devices. The findings showed that those who were asked to analyze their reactions disagreed most with the experts, whilst the others made choices that corresponded much more closely.

It's the only jam I like, it's delicious on a biscuit.

Now I'm hungry.
