Transcript

You're gonna do right now is stop, pause, you're gonna look at these three types of jam, you're gonna stop and put a comment tier now which one do you think wins. I actually don't know what the answer is because I haven't tasted them yet. It tastes like the Smucker's, perfectly good jam, very sweet, kinda gluey, oh, and a tiny bit of a bitter aftertaste. I'm gonna say no on this one, which is surprising because when I did the peanut butter, the Hannaford was as good as Skippy, whereas this is a five. Of course, in France, this is all we would eat. Good. Not great. Seven and a half. Seven and a half. That tastes good. Well, that tastes way better than I thought. I'm going back for more. My Good, that tastes homemade. That's not what you thought was gonna happen, right? I know you already voted for Bon Ma Ma. That is a nine. We make a compote in the better, it tastes like that. That's very, very good and super surprising. Did you know? Did you know? It's this. It's this. Wow. You didn't vote for this, did you? You couldn't have no, could you? I couldn't have known. You'll remember that I'm new here, new to your lovely country, have never tasted any of these before. I just turned everything off and picked up the jar rank looked at it. It's from Canada. Oh, Canada.
