Pedantically speaking, the process is called jellying, so the clue would need to be [JELLY] not [JAM] for that grouping to work. The real kicker is that blue wouldn’t work with any of the remaining clues, unless you consider [PICKLE] a breakfast topping.
Huh, going down that line of thought, one could make the argument that blue would still work in that combination, albeit as sandwich toppings instead of breakfast: [PICKLE] [HOT SAUCE] [BUTTER] [SYRUP]. Before anyone calls foul on [SYRUP] for this grouping, it goes on Monte Cristos and chicken & waffle sandwiches. This one might be the closest argument I’ve seen for an alternate solution. The previous pedantry proves pivotal for properly parrying the proposed protest.
