The following Dodgers have been smited by the JDK for their crimes against Jam:
All the girls! for picking on the JDK and damaging his already delicate self esteem!
The Basserd Who Nicked Copper's Stuff For the offense of nicking Copper's stuff. You are a tw*t, whoever you are and we all hope you get run over by a tram in Nottingham. Or Liverpool. Or whereever else they have trams!
Copper For the crime of playing with her Wii instead of her Jammie pals!
Jammie Dodgers were re-launched in March 2001, with new packaging and new improved biscuit design incorporating the jammie splodge. This re-launch was also supported with an extensive TV & Poster campaign on pack promotion.
Approximately 42 people are employed to operate the machinery used to make the Dodgers, from mixing the ingredients to baking and packing the product.
Over 200 packets of Jammie Dodgers are made per minute, that equates to 14 Jammie Dodgers being eaten every second.
Jammie Dodgers are available in the following formats:
A 150g pack containing 8 biscuits
A 300g pack containing 16 biscuits.
In addition Jammie Dodgers are also available in the following formats:
Mini Jammie Dodgers. (180g and 360g packs) Portion controlled and ideal for the lunchbox.

In the 1960's Jammie Dodgers were first made at the Burtons factory in Llantarnam, South Wales.
An appeal for information on how Jammie Dodgers got their name was sent out in July 2001 where over 600 responses were received. These were issued in a numerous of national newspapers including the Daily Mail and the TV programme Working Lunch.
However these proved inconclusive, so if anyone knows anything about where the name Jammie Dodgers came from let Burtons know.
