Marmalade sucks! We don't need a Brit on here giving us FOOD advice! Next, you'll be expounding on the virtues of spotted dick! (I am actually just kidding!)

Neither. I like orange marmalade or lemon curd.

If doing a PB&J, I like orange marmalade. If I was forced to chose in some tragic case, I would go with strawberry.

OP here. My husband did not grow up poor, but his family is very frugal. Could this be the reason for his questionable taste in jellies: his extremely frugal parents chose grape for their kids due to the cost factor?


I think this is it. Also the pp about calling using jam not jelly is correct too.

Did you kids not have apple jelly?


Is apple jelly different than apple butter?


Grape. Strawberry is for the 1%'ers. Apple Jelly? You are perverse.

I'm about to say something a little controversial.... JAM > jelly. Grape jam. Strawberry jam. It's all about JAMS not jellys
