I quite enjoy Trader Joe's Seville Orange Marmalade but I was idly
contemplating the label on the jar and I saw that one of the ingredients
was pectin. I wonder why that should be when the marmalade contains
slices of peel and orange peel is a rich source of pectin.

I also saw that the marmalade was made in Canada and the jar contained
17.5 oz. This, as the jar indicates, is 496g. I wonder why they don't
put a little more in the jar and make its weight a round 500g?
