Great! When Mom first moved us to Six Mile SC so my brother could go
to Clemson at in-state rates in a few years, there was a pick-your-own strawberry farm a bit less than a mile walk away. Mom sent us with 2$
each to pick berries, with cleaned out latex paint cans in gallon sizes.
She made strawberry jam with melted parafin wax tops. Lovely stuff and really good!

 Both of my grandmothers sealed their jams with wax . I ate literally gallons growing up and it didn't hurt me ... my wife uses a boiling
water bath to process hers .

Subsidy seekers gonna seek subsidies, always.Six miles high

and when we touch down
Occasionally there would be a
little mold on top of the jam. We'd just scrape it off with a spoon.

Common depression era cookery. Mom was born 1930 so absorbed lots of
things from then.

Not that I've ever canned fruit or made jelly or jam but paraffin wax was quite common back in the day. I see no reason for it not to work just as well in 2024.
