Q: It cannot be done. I think

DEEMI have spent too much time on this question. I am convinced this cannot be done. Please prove me right (or wrong) and explain why. Below is a 5x5 grid. Digits 1 through 9 go in the 9 yellow boxes. Every digit must be used. Yellow boxes can only contain a single digit, nothing else.Obvious...

 
@hexomino I really don't think this is it, but, just for fun: JELLY HIT: Fruit = JELLY, as in "Polaner All-Fruit"); buffet = HIT (as in "buffeted by the wind"); and a JELLY HIT is a dose of white granular substance.
 
@msh210 It's not that but your thinking is along the right lines
