Grape jelly and Lit’l Smokies were a popular gameday food for a while a couple of decades ago. The best were the ones with the purple label on the pack. But Hillshire Farm stopped making them. They still make others but they’re not as good as they were or worth the trouble to make now.

Not a hair split but the correct dip mix in the 60s was “California Onion.” They quit making it in the 80s. One can still make a good dip with onion soup mix and sour cream but the “California Onion” was better.

Jelly with meat is pretty common. Mint jelly with lamb is delicious.

Liver sausage and grape jelly sandwiches were part of the regular lunchbox rotation when we were kids. I still eat them occasionally, and still with potato chips as the crowning layer. I was familiar with hunger so I wasn’t fussy.
