I once carried out an evaluation of a former non-conformist chapel that had subsequently been used as a jam storage warehouse. The building had been destroyed by fire in the 1930s and ended in what had been recorded as a substantial explosion. I can confirm that jam retains a great amount of stickiness over a long period outside of the jar, and some of this stickiness had worked its way down through the soil and was represented on the surface of the bones of the non-conformist burials around the outer edge of the building - at least that's how we explained it to ourselves during the job.
