It's my understanding that the common words like "jelly" and "jell-o" are used for agar jelly prepared in the same way as gelatine dessert, and jelly also refers to what I can only otherwise describe as "gel food" in general, such as that made from pectin, tapioca or agar. Perhaps we can have a page for "Gel dessert" in general? Pages such as Yōkan currently redirect to the "gelatine dessert" page, despite being a plant-based jelly.
Wikipedia, and references to Wikipedia are the only websites that appear when a search engine is used for "jinkies dessert" or "jinkington". Where did these words come from? Who uses them?
That section is pretty darn wobbly. I thought it was covered above, but it isn't. My mistake. A simple sentence saying "less water: firmer; more water; may not set", should suffice. If you're set on the word wobbly, fine, add it to a simple sentence or two. But no sources for a year for a whole section about ions etc? The section is unsourced, arguably unencyclopdedic, and should be removed. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 18:53, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
It's something made up in school one day?? Besides the American Heritage Dictionary, it is also included in the New Oxford American Dictionary (3rd edition, 2010). Please read WP:NOTLEX. Wahrmund (talk) 18:17, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
I'm not sure who created the link to the German-language wikipedia article on de:Gelee (and why), but Gelee is actually a much broader term, used not only for gelatin desserts but also for aspic similar (see 1st pic). I suggest a link to de:Götterspeise instead. — Tauriel-1 (☎) 00:17, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

Not supported in any dictionary contradicted in fact. In Canada, Jello-O is marketed by Kraft foods as Jelly powder.
Jelly powder is what Canadians call Jell-O in the packet. Jelly is the name of the dessert. It has something to do with Canada being a bilingual country. The French must correspond with the English.
You can check for yourself what the labelling on Canadian Jelly Powder looks like - Gelée en poudre or Jelly powder here

Why are these in this article? "Jelly" in North America (as demonstrated by these very definitions) is a fruit preserve that has nothing to do with gelatin. --Khajidha (talk) 01:16, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
