Agreed
I drink water, black coffee, tea, vodka and terribly illegal moonshine.
If you've ever made jam (jello to our American cousins) before adding the sugar to your stewed fruit, taste it. Definitely lots of sugar in there!
- w1ntermute 13y ago> jello to our American cousins I think you mean jelly.
- jjsz 13y agoPeople use the word jam in the states. I first saw the word used at Denny's.
- driveby_bye_bye 13y agoRead wintermute's quote. ggp probably meant the word "jelly" instead of the word "jello". No one is contesting the word "jam". Don't reply to this comment.
- jjsz 13y agoThe scenario is that a US foreigner mentioned we use jello for jam. We use the word jam. Don't reply to this comment.
- w1ntermute 13y agoYou're missing the point. Regardless of whether "jam" is used, so is "jelly" (not "jello"). I am American and I use both "jam" and "jelly". There's probably variation in usage throughout the country. Don't reply to this comment.
- evilduck 13y agoJam, jelly and jello are 3 distinct things to Americans. Jello is a brand, its just flavored gelatin and comes in a box as a powder, sometimes people add fruit chunks. Jelly is a gel made from fruit juice and fruit pectin but contains no fruit solids. Jam is similar to jelly but contains some solids.
