Help
Gelatin dessert that is not the brand name Jello is still typically called Jello anyways. Just like all nose tissues are called kleenex, all foam packing material is called styrofoam, etc. There are other examples. NOt quite accurate, but who cares. Come to think of it, I don't know if there are any other brands that even make Jello, I guess there's generic brands though.
So the question is, if you Brit-type people call Jello jelly, what do you call jelly (the kind that does on toast or on a sandwich with peanut butter?) Don't say jam or preserves, those are different than jelly.
Vegemite or Marmite What's your poison?

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Speaking of which, I am currently eating toast (from the orange packet!) covered in beery marmite, cut-up bits of bacon and grated cheese, all grilled. Food of the gods. There is nothing possible that can be done to improve this meal.
If this was sold in McDonalds, I would eat there every day, breakfast lunch and dinner.
"Big Brood and Fries please."
Err...maybe not.
I name this the McBrood Sandwich. Curly Fries would go well, I think

Vegemite wins, there is no competition.
Marmite is like the sperm of the devil.
