Jquery find td with a specific value

Question

I have a table and in each column of each row I have a different number as a value

<table>
    <tr>
        <td>13</td>
        <td>15</td>
        <td>1</td>
    </tr>
</table>

I want to use Jquery to find the td with the value 1, I've tried with:

$('td[text="1"]')
$('td[html="1"]')
$('td[value="1"]')

But none of them is working, and if I use contains then I'll get the three of them which is not what I want.

Any ideas? Thank you.

Try to use .filter() with its helper function signature,

var elems = $('td').filter(function(){
 return this.textContent.trim() === "1"
});
