"Jam": {
"The making of jam and jelly probably began centuries ago in the Middle Eastern countries, where sugar cane grew naturally."
"Historically in Ireland, two of the most popular jam flavours made in the home were Rhubarb and Ginger and Blackberry and Apple."
"Jam is a thick mixture of cut or crushed fruit and sugar (and often pectin) that is cooked until the pieces of fruit form a thick puree. Jelly is a clear, bright mixture made from fruit juice, sugar and pectin or acid that forms a gel."
"Jam is an interesting condiment because its neither a solid or a liquid. It can contain chunks of fruit which are solids, but if let out of the fridge the juicy bit becomes a liquid. Also Jam moves to fit a contain, which is one of the properties of a liquid."
