@1,025,588 (E) > Jelly is often made from gelatin, which is made from animal parts.
This doesn't appear to be generally true for popular jellies.
The brand with the largest US consumer base, Smucker's, uses fruit pectin as a thickener. The same is true for a jar of Great Value jelly someone might pick up at Walmart. Pectin is a complex set of polysaccharides produced in plants. It is used in food as a gelling agent, particularly in jams and jellies. It is also used in dessert fillings, medicines, sweets, as a stabilizer in fruit juices and milk drinks, and as a source of dietary fiber. Being sourced from common agricultural plants like apple, carrot, and citrus makes it a cheap and plentiful alternative to gelatin.

The joke is "jelly" in the UK refers to gelatin (which is not usually vegan), not what Americans call "jelly" (which is usually vegan). The OP is using "jelly" in the UK sense.

Actually, jelly and jam are different in the way that the fruit is used in the spread. In jelly, it comes from juice. In jam, it comes in the form of pulp. Thanks.

Murkins call both jelly. At least I'm sure I have never heard the word jam used in the U.S. unless it's by a British person.

Actually, we all sell jams, jellys, and preserves(whole fruit) all correctly labeled. Most just just refer to all three as jelly. "Jell-O" is present in all of them, as it is just a brand name for gelatin desert.

The population of the U.K. + commonwealth countries / ex-colonies, yes.
