How Do You Make A Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich?

For me peanut butter on toasted whole wheat seed loaf and fig jam is the best.

I have to try that !

This is how wars begin. We have a different version of it here. Goat cheese and strawberry jam. Or raspberry jam. And it's best on waffles, with a little sour cream on top. That's normal, peanut butter and jam is just weird.

That looks delicious !

The way I used to make mine was chunky peanut butter on one slice and adding the strawberry jam directly to the peanut butter. Nothing went on the second piece of bread...but I can't have peanut butter anymore. It is one of the worst triggers for my angina, the only thing worse are eggs, fried or scrambled...

I can have peanut butter and eggs in this like baked goods, but I cannot have them in an unadulterated form. Thank you, EDS.

Alright but am I the only person here who enjoys PB&P sandwiches? (Peanut butter and pickles)

Goat cheese? That stuff literally makes me throw up. You asked for war, you got it.

I use option one, but what may be strange is I don't then put them together like a sandwich. I eat the slices separately, the sticky heavy peanut butter first and then the light and sweet jelly slice as a chaser. Funny, I prefer this to the taste of them together. Very aspie, I think.

People joke that it's a 'pregnancy food' but I don't really get it. The saltiness and sweetness (if you buy peanut butter that has sugar added to it) of the peanut butter goes well in contrast to the sourness of dill pickles.

No! We decided on PEACE! Everyone can eat what they want. Even pickles and peanut butter.

Yep, jam makes more sense on bread than jelly.

In America Jam and Jelly mean the same thing .

What is jelly where you guys are ? Is it like Jello?

Moogwizard is not wrong, in America, most people do use them interchangeably. I am definitely a jam person myself, but no matter what you use, people still call it peanut butter and jelly.

 

[Ella Spell]

Yes. It's short for gelatin so it means jello.

I also think of it as a compounded artificial substance, like petroleum jelly.

I've heard of peanut butter and jelly but thought it meant you actually use peanut butter and some sort of seedless gelatin product, different from jam.

We say peanut butter and jam.

Yeah, jelly is sort of like that, but in America most people don’t really differentiate and usually it is more what you all call jam.

OK thanks. Didn't mean to sound picky. I'm just very literal, so I wondered if there was a difference.

Not picky at all! The fascination is in figuring out the details and the specificity of things. I figured this debate may pop up.
