Is orange marmalade just a British thing?

Anyone else like it on toast for breakfast?

I used to love it! ONE if my favorites. Unfortunately, marmalade is full of sugar, and I am not allowed to eat sugar anymore.

@4meAndyou I don’t suppose you can get sugar free? It probably doesn’t taste too good without all the sugar though 😞

@Oneofthestormboys The sugar free types of jam, jelly, and marmalade, unfortunately, contains sugar free sweeteners of various types...and THOSE, just like sugar, disturb your blood sugar levels and make you feel hungrier than you would normally.

I DID once, toy with the idea of making my own marmalade...bought the jars, and the Surejell because I just happened to have a LOT of oranges...but it just didn't get done. If I had gotten around to it, I could have reduced the amount of sugar free sweetener.

@4meAndyou Oh shame you didn’t - it would have been lovely!

@Oneofthestormboys IKR? Well, I still have the jars, and the Surejell...so...maybe some day I will score a lot or oranges again!
