Why is it not permitted to create a jelly/marmalade with more than 4 fruits?

  There's nothing saying you can't. You just can't call it a jam or a marmalade as that has a very specific definition in people's minds. The law itself is detailed here[1].

    Thanks, I was trying to set them up for a "Chesterton's fence" situation tbh ;)

      I hadn't come across that before! Very nice.

  Because you’d create PB&J addicts! Can you imagine the scoundrels walking around eating delicious toast and jelly?
