All girls love jello.

@aliceif If she's excited, she doesn't look it.

I made Jell-O® and potatoes yesterday. Thankfully I didn't mix them.

@LB_ The nickname for gelatin is jelly in a lot of places. Jello is what folks in my neck of the woods say, though. (Jelly is the generic for "fruity stuff you put on toast or peanut butter sandwiches".)

@Parody Huh, TIL. When I see "jelly" I think of putting grape jelly on a PB&J. Gelatin/jello is a dessert that would taste really weird on a sandwich with peanut butter.

Brand name, IIRC.

@LB_ Most of America is that way if I remember rightly, but I believe in the UK jelly is a dessert made from gelatin and jam covers all types of fruit preserves.

Close. Jelly is indeed a gelatinous dessert item every six-year-old goes crazy for, but jams are only one type of fruit preserve, the other being marmalade. The main difference is jams are normally the sweeter fruits e.g. berries, whereas marmalades are typically the citrus fruits.

In the US, "jelly" is made from fruit juice and has a very gel-like consistency through and through, while "jam" is like jelly but with bits of fruit chopped up and mixed into it.

@masonwheeler "Jam" in the US is typically just using the whole fruit in the preserves. Jam has always been, as it were, my jam.
-
@Magus Something like that, yeah. (I don't make the stuff; I just eat it!)

One of Cornwall's less successful ideas, maybe?

Hm. To me "jelly" was always the kind of stuff that you can't really spread on the slice of bread since it keeps its shape when you press on it with a butter knife, while jam is kind of gelatinous but easily breaks down. And marmalade is when it doesn't have any shape at all, being a thick fruity sludge.
-
@Maciejasjmj Yeah you don't 'spread' jelly, you just knife chunks of it onto a piece of bread in a relatively even distribution.
-
The last time I was in the US I tried a sandwich made with Kentucky Jelly. It was pretty grim, I don't know how anyone could eat that tbh.

@Boner They do have different flavors.
