Orange jelly is an experience.

It’s a big out there, Kev Just waiting to make you more depressed.

Wait til he finds out there is more than just jelly. Jam, preserves, fruit butters, marmalades…

Kevin seems to have his mind blown really easily

I love jams and jellies, mostly preserves though I can’t find them much anymore. Good to have a great variety of flavors.

I remember the first time I had anything sweet on bread that wasn’t syrup or grape jelly: My aunt’s homemade apple butter. It was legit life-changing.

You can also make spicy jellies, and vegetable jellies. It’s a whole wonderful world!

All we could usually afford was grape jelly growing up. It was the cheapest kind in the store. I hate it to this day. Strawberry jam was a rare treat.

Try some cactus jelly sometime! It’s made from prickly pear cacti. Excellent southwestern food!

All that talk about jelly is making Kevin have an existential crisis.

Jelly is made only from fruit juice. If you want the actual fruit, get jam or preserves. Even better, get fruit spread which has less sugar (to be called jam requires 50% sugar).

Kevin… You need to get out more!

And you dont need to add sugar, there is plenty i. The fruit

Now wait! Jelly is made from jellyfish and that’s it and that’s ALL!!

I think I also only knew about grape jelly when I was a kid. It’s still the only right kind for PBJs.

I had the same experience! Still prefer grape <3

Epiphany. Plus, it’s not orange jelly, it’s marmalade.
