Well...my partner says to tell you that if you don't use it, you're likely to end up with blackberry syrup, instead of jam. That's what happened to us when we picked tons of blackberries a couple of years ago, and she taught me how to make jam. Half turned into jam...the other half was syrup...and don't think we didn't go ahead and give it as gifts, anyway! Wow - homemade blackberry syrup! People truly dug it!
But, seriously, pectin is a naturally-occurring food product...it's a dietary fiber...all good.
And be sure and let us know how it turned out! Yummmm...
