The jelly isn't gelatin. It's like jam I guess, I don't know what they call it in other countries. I feel like some folks think we eat peanut butter and gelatin, which is wrong.

I think the difference between jam and jelly is how much pectin is in it, or one has chunks of fruit and the other doesn't? I don't really know. I don't like either of them.

Jam is made with pureed fruit, while jelly is made from fruit juice. Colloquially, though, people use the terms interchangeably constantly.
