Have you had one? Has every American had one? What are they like? What exactly is in them, ie do u use butter and regular jam?

I'm gonna make some.

I wish I knew everything.

Yes, they are absolutely awesome, don't forget the obligatory pint of ice cold milk.

Throw in the odd banana for good measure, but PB&J on it's own is perfection.

Peanut butter on one slice, grape jam on the other. It's quite nice.

It gets a bit sticky so you need to wash it as soon as possible

Didn't Elvis deep fry his pb&j?

peanut butter and banana on toast is totally awesome dude.

havent tried jelly yet

planetX · 26-09-2011 06:45PM

Yum, had one every single day of my school life - no other sandwich exists.
You need jam with no bits in = jelly. In the States you can buy peanut butter in a tub with stripes of jelly through it, just to make life that bit easier:D

Is it battered,or does it go in the fat "au natural"?

Peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches are so good... especially with a glass of milk! I prefer strawberry jelly over grape, though. And chunky peanut butter! Peanut butter and banana is also pretty good. In all honesty, the peanut butter you can buy in Ireland is crap. You need the classics like Jif or Peter Pan!

Since I started making peanut butter, banana and honey toasties for my kids, I've become quite addicted to them myself. Excellent mid morning snack.

it's peanut butter and jam, damnit! Peanut butter and jelly sounds foul and rubbery.

Peanut butter is impossible to spread on bread without tearing the sh!t out of it.

No, it's not. Americans use Jelly - it is a clear settled juice of the fruit without the fruit. Not like jam which has the fruit also.

Peanut butter and jelly is traditionally peanut butter with clear dark grape jelly. Lived there for years - never got to like it.

I like thick soft white bread with a generous layer of chunky peanut butter and a thin layer of raspberry jam. Nom nom.

Heat it up a little?

annascott · 26-09-2011 07:51PM

It is really delicious but hugely calorific. Try to get jelly instead of regular jam, ie no fruit lumps or pips...:)
