I simply wanted to buy some 'Jam' to put on my toast, but was baffled by the other 'jam like' items, namely marmalade, conserve and preserve. Could anyone explain what's the difference between these.

Preserves are foods made by bottling a fruits or vegetables with in a liquid that preserves (keep them edible).
Jams are a type of preserve, made with fruit (or fruiting vegetables, such as marrows) and sugar. In jam recipes, the jam preserves the fruit. But not all preserves are jam.
Marmalade is another sort of sweet preserve, made with citrus fruits.
Chutneys and pickles are also preserves. The preserving ingredient is generally vinegar, although sometimes its very salt water.
