    For marmelade / jam / jelly it depends on the sugar contents. I don’t know how much it has to be but if it has high enough sugar contents, you can indeed take off the mould generously and eat what is under it. That said - gross! Just don’t let foods spoil. Buy what you need and plan ahead a bit.

        1. Keep it in the fridge
        2. Only use clean spoons (don’t let breadcrumbs, butter, saliva touch the jam in the jar)
        3. Immediately close the jar after taking something out.

        -> rarely ever any mold. I keep my jams fresh for months this way.
