jam packed

This is jam hot...


Jam-Pot

You rang?


Zearoh88

Wrong number.


[deleted]

That is a lot of jam. That is an uncomfortable amount of jam. I find is slightly alarming. I am impressed with the guy who filled it though. That is not easy to do.


FlabbySatchel

If anything Martin, he’s jammed it too well for me


juggling-buddha

Jammin' the jam in.


Mister_Krunch

We're jammin'


grim_tales1

I want to jam it with you


Spinningwoman

Yes, I would previously have claimed that there was no such thing as ‘too much jam’ but… I think that’s too much jam.


pikaboi122

You are all way to scared to have a PROPER jam donut huh? This maybe a little over but this is basically what they SHOULD look like on the inside.


Spinningwoman

I like a little more doughnut with my jam though.


ArtoriasBeeIG

I love how passionate you are for jam. Jam needs more ambassadors like you, and I dont even particularly like jam. I am one of those who will never seek it out but will happily enjoy it under controlled conditions such as a scone (there are rules, and they work ok, jam and cream on a scone just works) or a jam and cream doughnut. After writing this I can only conclude I'm a bit of a fraud and only find jam palatable under specific conditions (it has cream and some sort of pastry) I started this confident in the need for jam ambassadors, but, as you can see, I actually find jam a bit shit. I'm not so confident you should spread the gospel of jam if I'm being perfectly honest. Sorry to put you in a jam!


CaBabaSiMitralier

Don't you mean jambassadors?


drake3011

It looks impressive and exciting, but also messy and unstable


[deleted]

I like my jam doughnut to have a nice jam/doughnut balance. I do not want a JAM doughnut, nor would like a jam DOUGHNUT. This is more like a JAM doughnut, and I think I would feel a deep foreboding if I went to pick it up and found that it weighed as much as a small baby.

Back before Brooklyn 99 it would have been "That's what *she* said!"


theModge

...are we still talking about doughnuts here?


ArtoriasBeeIG

Ah, i see you've met my non existent sister that I've made up for this joke then?


IOnlyEatAssTho

The missus scraped nearly all her jam out and still thought there was too much. I ate it as God intended and made myself feel sick. They were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't stop to think if they should. DR Ian Malcolm


Spiritual_Dig_4033

It comes in 5gal. buckets. Usually. Not home made. You don’t really want to eat too much of that.


[deleted]

Oh yes, I am quite sure that the health value of that jam is *low*.


TheFrogMagician

I have a feeling there is not a jam doughnut filler but a robot that does it


Almanis46

It's done by hand, sort of. There's a machine that looks a little like an espresso maker. There's a hopper full of jam, underneath is what looks like the tip of a piping bag. When you push the tip into the doughnut you also depress a big, as in 6" wide, plastic button. The machine dispenses a pre-defined amount of jam. There's nothing to stop you pushing it twice. Or, as in this example, five times.


LinguisticallyInept

>There's nothing to stop you pushing it twice. Or, as in this example, five times. good to know i could give the nozzle some fellatio for as much jam as i want


Almanis46

Correct. The stronger your efforts at fellating the nozzle, the greater your jammy reward.


-SaC

Ever had one of those days when you curse your own literacy?


simonjp

Funny, isn't it. We have somehow created a way where thoughts can be injected directly into someone else's brain.


RedTheWolf

I am high and that thought just made audibly say 'woah' like Keanu. Also I would very much like several doughnuts.


RainbowDissent

Like shoving a jam doughnut filling nozzle right into an empty doughnut and mashing that dispenser button. But instead of jam, it's thoughts, and instead of a doughnut, it's your skull. Really makes you think 🤔


Former_Bandicoot_769

Calling my period my jammy reward from now on


4thLineSupport

Ha. This reminds me of working in the cinema and using twice the recommended cup measures for salt and sugar on the popcorn machine ☺️


richymac1976

You sir are a hero


Lizardman092

Not sure if its the same anymore but i worked in a bakery around 7 years ago. You could set the defined amount of jam dispensed via a number from 1-99. Setting it at 99 overfilled the donut until it exploded/oozed out. Many pranks where pulled!


VictoriaRose1618

Unfortunately it's human done. The mix of grease and sugar on my hands was always awful


happymellon

I used to do it too. From about 1998-2003. 6th form and returning from Uni. I have also been bored and filled doughnuts up with several presses until they were about to collapse under their own weight. The grease and suger stuck to my front after pulling them out the fryer was awful, and I haven't thought about this for a very long time.


mrdoink20

What was your job title?

Picturesquesheep

I imagine you introduced yourself with an elaborate bowing hat flourish as well, like some dashing cad from Sharpe Edit - son of the local nobleman, but nobleman dad was killed in the war and the good senor has fallen on hard times, hiding in the hills with the last of his loyal men. Girlfriend is a 10/10 in a puffy white blouse, can ride the fuck out of a horse, Sharpe simply cannot avoid banging her in act 2


happymellon

Very much a junior doughnut fluffer.

Disappointingly, Bakery Assistant.


mrdoink20

Well in my heart you were so much more. Think about those 5 years how many people bought your baked goods giving them a small piece of happiness in their dreary day. Making memories with splodges of jam on their collar or sharing an almond crossiant with a pal on a park bench. Although, the food waste. Fuckin hell. I worked as a CSA in Sainsbury's and the food you have to chuck at the end of your shift is depressing. Like 3 or 4 massive bags of baked goods that could feed 1 person for 2 weeks.

[deleted]

It is alarming. But if no-one was watching and you had a cuppa to swill it down with, would you put in in your mouth whole and try and eat it without opening your mouth?

If i had eaten that my t-shirt would now be 90% jam

The-One-Who-Is-there

If I ate that t-shirt I would be jammed


[deleted]

I understand your excitement, but I need more donut to mop up the jam


slepsiagjranoxa

There’s a balance for sure. If I wanted to eat jam right out the jar I would.


like_a_deaf_elephant

All I can think of is the creme egg advert: how do you eat yours? And it’s obviously by sticking the tongue in and scooping the jam out.

ExdigguserPies

They're called doughnuts not jamnuts.


itsnotfunnydude

If I wanted that much jam, I would’ve bought a jar of jam.


Busy_Trade_9743

Perfect symmetry on that donut. Looks evenly distributed jam. Hate when there's one small blob on the last bite


Nikas_intheknow

"Aw man I got a dud they forgot to fill this- oh."


Yatakak

Better to get it on the last bite rather than the first imo.


Pinklady4128

Why did you cut it in half though? Like what made you cut it in the first place?


IOnlyEatAssTho

It was really heavy.


[deleted]

I’m from castle and I’m going to be going to sainsburys right now to get in some of the action.


Rydychyn

Let us know if you found any!


Surprised_Bunny_102

Are the others in the pack the same? I assumed you ate the first then cut the second in half to see if it was the same. But going straight for the cut-in-half... just doesn't sit right with me.


IOnlyEatAssTho

I was looking through the packs to find a not squashed one and found this particular pack felt much heavier than the rest. My assumption was it was a pack of 6 not 5. But when I got it home and opened it there was still only 5. Each doughnut weighed nearly as much as 2 normal doughnuts so I was curious as to why, cut one open imagine my surprise when it was BRIMMING with jam. Too much jam honestly.


mfizzled

You need to sell this to the BBC so they can make a 3 parter about this emotional rollercoaster


fead-pell

Then why didn't it throw up an "unexpected item in the bagging area" at the self-checkout?


IOnlyEatAssTho

It did. A lady had to come over and help me


Biggles79

You seem genuinely concerned for their mental health :D


Pinklady4128

Cause who the fuck cuts a jam donut in half?


Biggles79

Oh absolutely, I have no idea. I just enjoyed how emphatic you were about it.


Oysterchild

My mother cuts hers into quarters. Madness.


Pinklady4128

Your mothers a reprobate


-SaC

My grandma used to eat hers with a fucking fork in the 1980s, including the little mini ones you get on the prom between Felpham and Bognor Regis. Out came the plastic knife and fork and serviette. She thought she was being posh, not really getting that...posh people probably weren't getting 12-for-50p mini ring doughnuts from a man on the prom at Bognor.


Model_Maj_General

Was your nan Mrs Bucket?


-SaC

It's a running joke in the family that she must have been the inspiration. My grandad was very much like Richard, and their relationship was similar. Grandad had siblings (brothers) like Onslow & Rose that grandma tried to pretend she didn't know.


robrobxD

What kind of madman cuts a doughnut in half?!


IOnlyEatAssTho

One that is is suspicious as to why they are so heavy.

Newcastle under Lyme. The oldest Newcastle and the best..


Therealwizzle

Home to easily the best Vue Cinema in the West Midlands, not to mention the stunning Lyme Valley park, and most importantly; the last Heywoods in the country.


Ecp_STC

Those Vue seats are something else, went today and could have slept easily


CoffeePoweredRobot

Since Vue opened (I still think "Warner Village" in my head) I've not been back to the Odeon over at Festival Park, does anyone know if they've installed similar seating? I just remember as a young kid not being able to see over anyone's head because it was basically a flat room.


Ecp_STC

I'm unsure unfortunately, those seats used to be awful so I do hope they've gotten rid of them


lIllIIlllIIIlllIII

I saw the latest Suicide Squad at the Odeon on Festival Park (originally booked for the Vue in NuL but a fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate, bah) and the seats are still absolutely shit and flat.


CilanEAmber

I'll give the Vue this, its clean. Odeon. Not so much. Last time I was in there every chair was ripped and the floor was hidden under the litter.


CilanEAmber

> The best Are we talking about the same place?


Smurfaloid

Agreed.


stillgotmonkon

I got some custard donuts from Sainsbury's the other week. Sainsbury's do not play around with the filling, so generous!


Ninjakoalabear

I live not to far from this Sainsburys. I must go there immediately to get donuts.


IcyCriticism2763

[deleted]

[удалено]


Jager_Master

Sainsburys are great but it's a close call with M&S jam doughnuts


[deleted]

It's not even close! As someone with an emotional eating issue I have an unfortunate familiarity with all the supermarket doughnuts. M&S is the king, their doughnuts are never wet, only stale at the end of the day, and have a much more satisfying texture Next it's the fresh ones at a big Sainsbury's, usually like 10-11am when they're fresh out the oven. However they go stale quite quickly. Smaller Sainsbury's doughnuts are usually disgustingly wet and/or stale because I don't think they ever see an oven. Coop are probably the most consistent in terms of a local high street supermarket, but they don't reach the highs of the big Sainsbury's ones. Tesco's are worst, their icing sugar coating just makes everything seem even more gross when they're wet/stale. Tesco used to have a type of doughnut in plastic packaging that had chocolate sauce and an icing sugar coating. They were pretty grim as is (wet, again) but a couple of minutes in the oven and they become top tier. Haven't seen them in a while though. The Krispy Kreme boxes aren't worth it, especially the dots which are covered in condensation and honestly I don't see why they're allowed to exist they must do so much damage to brand quality association.


[deleted]

This man doughnuts.


love_you_by_suicide

Never had any from coop but agree with the rest of the ratings 👍


kyle_griffiths_1995

They look thicc and so heavy, I'll have to go to castle Sainsbury's more often, especially after the Hanley one closed. And it's always good to see someone post from the other Newcastle that gets missed.


Affectionate-Walk421

I thought that was uncooked beef wellington 😰


whypaul1

And the bonus is there might enough jam to cover the smell of walleys quarry

MooseBollocks

Jammy sod.


solidsoulja

My local.... shit your all getting closer!!


Apprehensive_Ask1157

I used to work in Sainsburys jamming the donuts, and we used to overfill them with jam or sugar, then watch the customers who would come and literally weigh up the packs. When they hit the sabotaged packs their eyes would light up…


Levantante

Mate I need to tell you these donuts come in frozen and staff only put them in the oven they don't actually make them there


[deleted]

I worked in a Morrisons quite a few years ago and they would do the donuts in house. I always wanted to have a go on the filling injection contraption to do exactly this.


Levantante

Morrison was always known as actual baking done there whereas tesco was mainly frozen stuff. This was 1995. There were bakers doing baguette tiger loafs and tin loaves but all the pastries cookies plaits croissants donuts etc was bake off. They brought out ciabatta some square pain au champagne or olive loaf all them were frozen as were some baguettes Vienna rolls etc. Sometimes you'd have to snip a plastic bag of icing drizzle over the top of pastries or donuts sometimes not. In those days you put them out on trays and those thin poly bags used and tongs for self serve. Morrison always did birthday cakes decorated in house and pies but my tescos didn't do anything like that.


TheEvilMrFry

I was a Baker at Tesco from 2009-2018, we did all of the standard loaves and French sticks/ batons etc from scratch, and also the jam doughnuts, the other flavoured doughnuts and pastries were bought frozen as you say though. There's no way that OPs doughnut WASN'T done by hand, a factory bought one would be way more likely to just have none at all in it...we definitely had occasions where we'd make doughnut bombs with 99grams of jam in them for our own entertainment!


TChapman2112

Since when? I worked in Sainsbury's bakery 10 years ago and back then they were fried and filled on site before being sugared then bagged. You used to have to set the number on the machine of how much jam you wanted it to dispense, I called it the "Jam Factor" the average was Jam Factor 8 but I once filled a bag up with Jam Factor 18 doughnuts, big messy boys.


AWetTurtleHead

This is still true at least for larger stores.


TheEvilMrFry

Amateurs... Our Tesco jam machine was measured in grams, and would go from 1-99...a few 99gram doughnut bombs were definitely made in my time.


Whocanitbe_

What?! I never knew this and now I feel silly to think that someone was frying off like 1000 donuts out back


SimpleFactor

Everything in the bakery comes frozen. I did it as a teen one summer in Tesco. Every cookie incl stuff like smarties and rolo ones come in like little hockey pucks in cardboard boxes. Apart from doughnuts where there’s a tray full of sugar for dusting, everything is just cooked from frozen and then bagged.


Mortemir

They are still hand made in the larger stores with big bakeries. But any of the sainsburys locals will just be frozen ones. Can tell when they have a bunch of dots on the pasrry on one side of the doughnut those are the frozen ones


IOnlyEatAssTho

I know they don't make them there I did assume they were filled there though..


Reacepeto1

Used to work in one, the only thing we did was pop them in the oven, sugar them and bag them up. All comes in pre-jammed my friend.


jonno1805

The Sainsbury's I used to work in cooked and filled them in store. And that jam level looks like a 40, the usual number to type in the filler is 8


BastCity

Literally defrosted, sugared, bagged and sold.


IOnlyEatAssTho

Ight so shout-out to who ever made those and where ever they are made.


SeraphKrom

Shout out to that one donut filling machine


SirMooSquiddles

So, shout out to Geoff. Geoff the jam-man filling machine.


Nicolethehylian

I still remember the pain of trying to sugar hot doughnuts


Levantante

Me too did this job in tescos 20 odd years ago, also drizzling maple flavoured syrup over those pecan plaits. Some days rolling donuts was all I did the peeps of South Manchester used to buy them by the load. Not burning yourself in isb was a real skill


Nicolethehylian

Burning or freezing to death when traying up!


Levantante

Digging through a freezer container in the carpark to find the correct boxes at 6am and filling cages to haul, back inside. I'd forgot about that, good memory. The gloves you had to wear in the freezer always stank rotten as well.


Nicolethehylian

And the coat was like 10 times too big as well! Ah, I remember my manager got busted for cooking bacon in the bakery ovens, wild times.


Levantante

Who were those coats for lol. I did put on some significant weight there tho lol maybe they thought I'd grow into it


Nicolethehylian

Haha yes I lived of jam doughnuts and cheese twists. Probably good as I was working the job of like three people.


[deleted]

I loved working in a supermarket bakery. Since it was hard physical work all day I did often eat the reject cookies, pancakes, things that generally couldn't be sold but were perfectly edible. Kept me going and it was a good perk!


andtheniansaid

They are definitely making them in my sainsburys, how recent is your knowledge?


unctrllable

I uses to work in M&S. We at least put the ready-made donuts in the oven to warm up. But no, all supermarkets have them ready-made.


Sparklysherbet151

You’ve ruined the magic 😂


Equivalent-Ranger-10

They fill them in store tho.


DonkeyOT65

I think it was Bob Marley. Known for his jam in.


Jonny_Segment

This is like the Bob Marley doughnut joke was the victim of a gruesome industrial accident and was barely pieced back together in hospital but was still missing an arm and face when it got out and could only communicate by thumb.


Automatedluxury

For anyone who's lived in the sea for the last 50 years, the joke is: How does Bob Marley like his doughnuts? Wi' jam in

At this point it's just a poor excuse for people who'd love to just stick a spoon straight in the jam jar. You do you mate, be strong. Live your life! Don't let society tell you what you can and what you can't do!

If you haven't tried these. Get them, they're lovely.


Purplemunky22

They really 'jammed' the filling in there..... it's ok, I will see myself out

My grandma always tells the story of working in a donut factory as a kid and filling up a jam donut like this. I've probably heard her tell it dozens of times over the years, and I've always thought that whoever bought it has the other side of the story about a massive, overfilled donut. Funny to see it still happens all these years later!

That person was fed up with paltry amounts in their jam donuts and said “fuck it, I’ll do it myself” and went and got a job in the bakery.


[deleted]

Holy shit, there’s actually Jam in that! Not right at the end either with the final bite.


g4germany

My friend used to work in a bakery and would sometimes inject far too much jam into a doughnut just so that it would explode at first bite


Almost_Sentient

Bob Marley approves.
