I'm sure there's a famous childrens character who eats jam sandwiches but google is not helping. It's driving me mad. Can anyone help?

DH says I'm thinking Paddington with his marmalade sandwiches but I'm sure there was someone who always had jam?

Kipper the dog has jam sandwiches on a picnic...

Didn't Just Willam like jam sandwiches? Paddington loved marmalade sandwiches - which I think sound disgusting!

Was about to answer ‘me - I am partial to a jam sandwich every now and then.’ But I’m not a fictional bear.....

Oor Wullie ate jeely pieces that meant to say!

Not Paddington, he ate marmalade sandwiches

Probably a long shot..but spot the dog stories had a picnic one where spot had jam sandwiches during a picnic. Could that be it? I'm talking over 20 years ago though.

'Bread and Jam for Frances"?

Squigean · 12/02/2020 14:03

Bread and Jam for Frances by Russel Hoban is a possibility.

I've not heard of it, but looks to be a series?

I love not sandwiches, but jam on nice fresh white bread. Sorry not the point, I don't know who your asking about.

Is it paddington bear?

With jam sandwiches in children's fiction makes me think of The Giant Jam Sandwich.

Can't think of a character who ate one.
