mistaking it for what we call jelly. What we call jelly is something you
spread on bread. Usually in the morning. You, maybe, call it jam (we have
stuff called jam as well, that is also spread on bread, but is generally of
a different consistency than jelly)?

(jello is actually a brand name of gelatin food products. I think red or
green were the original primary colors for jello brand gelatin. But we
have, of course, progressed far beyond this point) is a solid gelatin
product, stands up quite well on its own, is pretty well transparent (color
notwithstanding), is generally a dessert kind of thing and, well, wibble
wobbles around a great deal on a plate, especially fun to watch after
smoking marijuana.
