Jam picked up in supermarket (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ram

'jam' is the definition.
('ram' can be a synonym of 'jam')

'picked up in supermarket' is the wordplay.
'picked up' is a reversal indicator.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'mar' is hidden within 'supermarket'.
'mar' reversed gives 'RAM'.

(Other definitions for ram that I've seen before include "Butt" , "Aggressive sheep?" , "'Computer memory, initially (3)'" , "needed for PC" , "what comes after fish" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times.
