An easy one today, as DH just made one of these for my lunch today.

Do you eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches? What kind of PB and what kind of Jelly do you like? What kind of bread?

We buy the store brand of PB since it is less expensive. It tastes pretty good though. But my favorite is Skippy Crunchy. DH likes smooth, so we buy that.
The jelly is actually strawberry preserves, store brand is the best. Sometimes we will get Welches Grape Jelly. And all this is on white bread! DH will have one at least everyday. I will have one every couple of weeks or so.

I've eaten them, but never really cared for them. I was a strange child.

Ummmm, I've never had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Never made them for my son either.

We always have a few jars of Skippy Super Chunk in the pantry as Rick and I are both peanut butter fans.

Not so much for jelly and the like. I do have preserves in the fridge for when I want to fill muffins and cookies. And I like to use them for bbq sauces and glazes. But it's very rare for either of us to sit down with jelly on bread. I don't know why.

Not really, I do like PB&J but I find that it is too high in calories and I'm always still hungry after I eat it...

I on occasion eat a peanut butter sandwich, I only like creamy Skippy. I don't usually have jelly in the house.

I will eat one about every year or two. I buy smooth peanut butter and usually 3 berry jam. I prefer crunchy peanut butter, but I buy smooth because I like to make cookies with it.

Now I am craving a sandwich.

peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
! I just had one for lunch in fact
.

I love crunchy peanut butter. But any "style" will do
My favorite brand is Skippy.

As far as jelly goes. The sweeter the better
. I love grape, strawberry, and peach.

Bread just cheap white is my favorite
!

Yea I am sure you all think I am nuts already

Nope, I don't like jelly


I will eat peanut butter sandwiches though! I don't have a preference on peanut butter really, usually just buy Jif or Skippy because that's what we always had. My grandma did buy some good organic peanut butter one time too a few years ago.

For bread, I like plain sliced white bread.

I think I want a peanut butter sandwich now

I love PB&J! I like crunchy peanut butter, and the best affordable brand I can get here is called Barney's Best. Skippy is unknown outside of U.S. PXs, and Jif is only available at a few stores and incredibly overpriced.

Thanks to fruit allergies, the "jelly" in my PB&J is usually cranberry sauce, and I use rolls instead of white bread, which we very rarely buy.

I used to like FlufferNutters when I was a kid - peanut butter and marshmallow whip on white bread.

I don't care for pb&j, but for some odd reason I'll eat Goober spread---grape jelly and peanut butter in the same jar, and only on white bread.

There's no place like home
I love the convenience of PBJ's. I can get really busy and don't like to stop long for lunch. My preference is Skippy's extra crunchy and I pair it with either strawberry preserves or Welch's grape jelly. I usually buy either sour dough bread or wheatberry bread so whatever is in the house makes the sandwich.
