However, my friend, what a grievous error as you can clearly see that this is a jar of "preserves" not the "jam."
American English
Jelly - made from fruit juice - no fruit pieces
Jam - made with small pieces of fruit and sometimes fruit pulp.
Preserves - made with large or whole pieces of fruit.
I do understand that the English have it the other way around (jelly vs. jam), no? Lil' help here?
Think about THAT mind-bender the next time you all have your Peanut Butter and JAM! [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Vaillant 3.0 from Sunday, March 01, 2009 12:20:21 PM)

That is exactly what I am having for breakfast (as I am just waking up "for real" now at noon). You scare me sometimes. Got a camera planted here or just reading my mind?
