Does "no money problem" mean that I have plenty of cash, or that I'm
broke? I can read what you write. I can only guess what you mean.

How about "no-sugar-needed pectin"? If I ask someone splashing around in
the water if he needs help and he answers "no swimming problem", I might
well assume that he has no problem swimming. If I were brilliant, I
might figure out that he means, "I can't swim." As it is, he'd likely
drown.

Pectin works with or without added sugar. To make your own pectin syrup,
boil up apple peelings, strain, and reduce.
