"British jams & marmalades" ... the latter made from oranges which aren't grown widely in UK but plenty in Spain

@tradegovuk Tell me more about these innovative jams. Are they wi-fi enabled? Future-proof? Self-spreading? What's the future of jam? -

@GrillingKippers And British shops are full of Bonne Maman jams. The French don't much like marmalade

Hihi - I reckon Colmans is underperforming. I wonder if we're going back to the crap food UK had before joining EU

@tradegovuk In case you haven't noticed, France exports jams and preserves to the UK. -
One would indeed have hoped for slightly more ambition than exporting jam.
@Dragonblaze@tradegovuk -
Yes. If that's the absolute best that
@tradegovuk can come up with it's clear that UK doesn't have much hope w/o single market

My marmalade was made in Germany. Tastes great, and a great price.
