how we started

“there’s no way I’m putting that glass jar of jam in my backpack!”

Born on an ill-prepared backpacking trip through Catalina Island, that line sparked the idea for the first ‘outdoor jam’ — packed with electrolytes, built to fuel better than a gel.

"It has all the carbs and sodium a gel would, but it's actually delicious. Bonus points for a great brand name."

Dario DiGiulio — Tech Editor for PinkBike

"What started out as a desire to have transportable jam on backpacking trips turned into a brand... I would rather lick a battery than eat most of the current gels on the market. This, on the other hand, is some artisanal good shit."

Mike Ferrentino — Editor at NSMB

"Jesse Jams takes a different approach to ride fuel with electrolyte-infused jam packaged in a resealable pouch designed for multiple servings... aimed at riders looking for steady energy without the typical gel format."

Ron Koch — Editor at Mountain Bike Action
