And yet you want people to take you seriously? :D :p ;) :eek:
I heard on the radio a few months back about a teenager in England who only ate peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Doctors checked him out and he was in reasonable health. His mother said that's all he'd eaten since he was a young child. I can't find a link.Quote:

Dude, if he was in England that'd be peanut butter and jam. Don't give in to the American cirruptions of our language! :mad:Quote:

Whereas Aussies and poms understand me when I write American. Not to mention besides you and me everyone else on the thread is American. Do they even know what jam is? How about queues? A fortnight? :p
don't even get started on metric. iron would **** himself again if you got back on that kilograms kick.
Aaarrrgghhhhh! Don't give in to them!
(Heh, and I spelt corruptions wrong above! :o )
Yessss. Yes, you did. But I let it slide, BL :p.
*ACK!*
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jam
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jelly
apparently not a corruption of language but an entirely different product.
Only different to us, Oso. Limeys do not distinguish between the two.
:confused: Did you read the links?
Jam is a type of fruit preserve. It is a way of preserving fruit by boiling it with sugar to make an unfiltered jelly.
Jam which has been filtered to remove pulp and make it clear is called jelly.
Jelly is a sweet or savoury food gel ... Sweet food gels include gelatin desserts such as Jell-O and blancmange or fruit jam.
They're basically the same thing. Over here, though, we call Jell-O jelly and jam jam. You wouldn't hear people calling jam jelly. In England you might - dunno.
Nup. England's the same as Oz.Quote:

Calm down, Toby!;) :p There is a differnce here in the US. Jelly is translucent, Jam is not, and Preserves is mashed fruit with pectin but no added sugar.Quote:
