All-Fruit Jellies?
I suppose that putting jelly/jam/preserves on breakfast toast is something to be reserved for an S day because of the sugar content. But how about Polaner All-Fruit or Smucker's All Fruit? They are sweetened with fruit juice only, no sugar added, no artificial sweeteners, either. Legal on no-S days?
all fruit jellies
Hi Jan They are absolutely okay- I love the apricot one by polaner. i actually found that one when i was on another diet years ago. just keep being smart- checking those labels- remember we aren't counting carbs or anything for that matter so just avoid the fructose-sucrose etc...those oses are bad except on SS days of course-
Some might say you are only feeding your sugar craving- because it is so sweet- but everything in time and if all fruit jam keeps you on track then thats great. you do whats necessary for you and you alone- we are all in different situations-have a great day
enjoy

This is one of those borderline issues that probably isn't a problem for most of us and shouldn't be worried about disproportionately. I'd say don't worry about a bit of jam on your breakfast toast unless you're doing everything else perfectly and you need to go an extra step. I've been known to have jam on toast for breakfast on N-days. I view it as analogous (and roughly calorically equivalent) to sugar in coffee (which I don't do myself, but offically OK on the home page). On the other hand, if you think it's going to be a slippery slope of sweetness, by all means wait till you've got the habit down before attempting.
A good general policy for borderline foods is don't have them often so you don't have to take an absolute stand. It's so easy to resolve more than you can do, so resolve sparingly.
