Nothing says Hannukah like hot and spicy preserves
Yogi Berra once famously said, “It ain’t over ’til it’s over.” While he probably wasn’t referring to Hanukkah, we’ll let that quote apply to this year’s holiday anyway. In a fit eBay last-minute bidding, we picked ourselves up a bottle of Buddah’s 2008 Hanukkah Preserves. Admittedly, I am not the greatest consumer of jellies, jams, or preserves, but the collector in me couldn’t resist the
opportunity to add one of these to my collection of eclectic hot sauce and spicy food goodies. I’m not really sure if something as sugary as preserves has the shelf-life to be a long-term collectible, but who cares? Buddah was such a mensch to put this together that we’re honored to have some. Besides that, we also got a big dreidel-shaped cookie and some other goodies to boot. Check out the swag:

You made my night Joe. I wasn’t having a good last 24 hours, being sick, multiple Trojan viruses on my computer and then my Vikings getting knocked out of the playoffs. Thanks for bidding, winning and then showing off my goodies, I hope you enjoy them.

The preserves are actually quite good! I was impressed! And the cookie was yummy too
I don’t know about shelf-life either, but I thought the same thing: who cares? It looks great on the shelf for now!
Great job Buddah, awesome stuff!

Thanks Ethan, I am very happy you liked the preserves. I wasn’t sure it would be liked by anyone since it was the first time I have ever did it. I want to try strawberry next time see how that goes.
I hope the shelf life lasts, but I thought about it too and I just didn’t know. As long as it is jarred, I would hope it would last for a while, but I don’t have knowledge on that.
