Peanut Butter and Jelly Time

[Morbius]

I am 64 years old and I still like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Sometimes I like to insert half a banana (sliced) in the middle. I'm a creamy peanut butter guy. I prefer either strawberry jam or plum jam, and I choose white, wheat, or cinnamon-raisin bread. How about y'all? Are you a crunchy pb person? I understand grape jelly is a national favorite. My daughter actually likes pb&j on pumpernickel; I can't take that.

So... any contributions? It's peanut butter jelly time!

1. I agree with your daughter, PB&J on toasted pumpernickel

is the bomb. Works great on cinnamon-raisin too. All natural crunchy peanut butter and Polnars strawberry jam. To be honest I don't keep it in the house as I have the self control of Elf

2. I tried the store brand strawberry jelly a few months ago.

It was horrible. The texture was almost indescribable. It was so thick I could not spread it on my bread or toast. I will stick with the premium stuff henceforth.

3. Love it, though I have become partial to almond butter

Will use any variety of fruit preserves or sliced banana.

4. Creamy peanut butter and strawberry jam.

I also like cashew butter.

6. I've made cookies with cashew (and almond) butter.

Never tried sandwiches with them, though. It's a little pricey and not too easy to source.

5. Grape jelly and creamy PB on white bread for me.

Strawberry jelly when available (or jam otherwise) on hot buttered biscuits.

7. If you've never had elderberry jelly in a PB&J, try it! You'll never use any other jelly again!

8. What about peanut butter, honey & banana?

(I hate jelly)

9. I hate honey, so I guess we're even there.

When I was a kid my mother would make me drink tea with honey when I had a sore throat, and for the first 18 years of my life I thought I hated tea.

My sister offered me tea with sugar when I was of age, and I realized it was the honey I hated. I still drink tea to this day. I don't even have honey in my house.

I'm with you on the banana, though.

10. I haven't always hated jelly.

When I was a kid, I liked PB&J sandwiches.

11. Creamy peanut butter and raspberry jelly or preserves

On whatever bread my wife has made this week. Also good on bagels

12. That sounds really good.

Especially the fresh bread. PB & J on fresh bread would be a rare treat for me.
