I prefer Lemon Cheese actually, but not averse to apricot jam.

As long as the word "Hartleys" doesn't appear, surely that sickly load of twollop can no way be called Jam.

[Bathsheba]

Jam is jam to me im afraid. I prefer marmalade though. :-)

Come on Satan&co, what IS the difference between jam and preserve?

[Satan&Co]

actually the question was a pi$stake, but this for you PB

Jelly, jam and preserves are all made from fruit mixed with sugar and pectin. The difference between them comes in the form that the fruit takes.
Specifically, the fruit in jelly comes in the form of fruit juice. Jam, on the other hand, uses fruit pulp or crushed fruit, which explains why it's "less stiff" than jelly. Finally, in fancy-pants preserves, the fruit comes in syrup-laden chunks.

[Panic Button]

Well I still think there's enough here to warrant a whole section, so I will take the baton.

Come on ED, what about it?
