Peanut Butter & Jam sandwiches. Who came up with this shit?

Okay. So. Think about it for a second... PB&J sammiches? They're like a staple of a cheap, effective, and quick sandwitch to eat inbetween meals or, even for a meal. Some restaurants even serve them. They're just everywhere. I eat at least 3 or so a week out of habit and convenience.

But when you really think about it. What the fuck was the person thinking who came up with this shit? Here's the cookbook entry...


1. Get jam.

Now this sounds good. Jam is awesome and tastes super good.

2. Get bread. Put jam on bread.

Alright, we're doing fine here. Bread and Jam? No problem. They go well together.

3. Get bread.

More bread? Okay...

4. Get Peanut Butter, and spread that on bread.

Uh. What? Alright... more spreading. cool. Now we have multiple choices of things to eat.

5. Take both and put them together into a sandwitch.

WHAT? wait. wait wait... you know you just TOOK PEANUT BUTTER... AND MASHED UP BERRIES AND PUT THEM TOGETHER, RIGHT? Think about it. Whens the last time you dipped a fucking blackberry or a raspberry into a jar of peanut butter?

Shit, Peanut butter on OREO's sounds like it makes more sense... but berries and peanut butter? the fuck? Nobody does that! what makes it okay as long as you have bread surrounding it?

Oh... it tastes good? well. Fuck. I wouldn't have imagined that. BUT WHAT MADE YOU THINK IT WOULD TASTE GOOD? Shit, bro. You're one creative son of a bitch. Kudos to you, oh maker of the PBJ.

Jelly and Jam are two entirely different things. I never eat a Peanut Butter & JELLY sandwich. Jam is way better.

If you need to, look that shit up. Jelly is basically just Jello. (which is even weirder on a sandwich)

Maybe where you come from. I call it a PB&Jam. You should try it sometime. Helps save breath from A: incorrectly calling Jam "Jelly" and B: using the extra syllable and wasting breath in process.

Nope, its peanut butter and jelly everywhere. This is almost as absurd as that time you tried to tell me that the Nazi's were arming their "citizens"...

It really doesn't matter a whole bunch. Jelly is made with juice. Jam is made out of actual mashed up berries or the fruit itself.

And fuck you guys, I'm going to go make myself a PBP. That's right, a Peanut Butter and Preserves sammich!

in my house we make our own bread.
and buy our peanut butter locally made. (only peanuts and salt)
and if i'm lucky berrys are in season and my mom might have made jam/jelly
even though im no longer a kid i still enjoy a pb and j.
not that im am a adult living with mom (im in high school)

bread contains gluten which brings numerous problems, not to mention how flour itself is digested. And dont think that whole grain bread is any better, it can be worse for you in several ways.

peanuts contain a poisonous mold called aflatoxin. Also because they are a legume, they are high in phytic acid and sapponins.

jam and jelly both contain added sugar aswell. There are fruit spreads out there that are made with just fruit, or sweetened with things like honey, but i would still steer clear of the regular sweetened jellies even if they are made from local blueberries

I'll stand on the jam side of the argument, even though we're clearly outnumbered.

"AWE SHIT DIS MY JAM!"

I know it's wikipedia but it's pretty much the only link I could find about Peanut butter jelly sandwiches http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peanut_butter_and_jelly_sandwich

"The peanut butter and jelly sandwich or PB&J is a sandwich, popular in North America, that includes a layer of peanut butter and either jelly or jam on bread, commonly between two slices, but sometimes eaten open-faced or with one slice folded over."

I will say, I did come up with this invention back in college when I ran out of bread in the morning.


It's called the breakfast dog.


1 hot dog bun.
1 banana
peanut butter
nutella
honey

Take nutella, peanut butter, and honey - spread in hot dog bun. put banana in hot dog bun. Put ingredients onto banana as well.

Then take to class.

Watch your professor stop class and ask "what is that amazing thing in your hand"

Tell everyone about it. Make everyone jealous. Repeat every day.

What was the inventor of the PB&J thinking? I'm more curious to find out what the first person who looked at a cow and said "lets tug on these tits and drink what comes out" was thinking
