• Jam is the exact same except with mashed bits of fruit.
• Preserves have whole chunks

Yes in some other places what we refer to as jello (gelatine-based fruit-flavored wobble) you call jelly. But the jelly in a classic PBJ is assumed to be made from concord grape juice and sugar, jellified by pectin. Do you guys not distinguish between the pectin and gelatin kinds?

no, the distinction is the same, it’s just that from what i’ve seen of american grape jelly i would call it a jam.

Oof I typed a response with 3 recipe links and lost it so I’ll just say jelly is clear bc juice, jam is opaque bc fruit

It isn’t a jam, as it has none of the fruit left in it. Its just juice.
