Can I take marmalade on a plane?
Yes. Same as jam — marmalade is a liquid/gel for security, so at 100ml checkpoints cabin containers must be 100ml or smaller.
Does marmalade count as a liquid for airport security?
Marmalade is screened like jam. At a 100ml checkpoint, jars over 100ml are removed from cabin baggage; some airports allow larger containers.
