the Brit's are confused lol!

well, from a British point of view - Jam is what you have on toast, jelly is a dessert, like at a kids party or something. and you dont have jelly on toast, at least, not here.
It sounds to me like Jello IS jelly, but because of the popularity of the brand name, people have adopted that name for it.
Since we don't have the brand name jello here, then it's still just...plain old jelly lol.
Maybe thats what it is?

I do not know the British counterpoints, but in the US:
Jelly is clear, solid, no fruit bits,
Jam in not clear, with bits of fruit.
These two are used as a spread, such as on toast.
Jello is a brand name for a company that makes pudding and gelatin dessert mixes.
I hope someone posts the British versions, I am curious.

I am making sweet chili sauce. And the recipe called for vinegar. I used white distilled and the sauce taste a little like vinegar. I realize i should have used red wine or apple cider. Any way to cut down the vinegar taste? before i can the sauce.
