Pectin's found naturally in so many fruits. Plum/paste tomatoes, peaches, apricots and plums have a lot of it. Blackberries, very little. It will surely be delicious w/o any added, but if you like a good thick spread, why not? It will mean having to cook it down a lot less. Otherwise, you cook and cook the water off and it gets a different (more stewed, less fresh) flavor.
