Wheat bread with crunchy PB, light on the sugarless grape or blackberry jelly, and dunked in the chicken & rice or chicken & vegetable soup. The preferred drink would be a chocolate shake. If no soup is available, a light coating of each bread slice with margarine (PB side).
Then it's back to kindergarten.

Chunky, toasted and with bananas!

With marshallmellow fluff on white bread folded in half...fluffanutter suitcase sandwich!
nbnozzy (anonymous) says…
I guess me and my girlfriend are so vanilla. We like it the old fashioned way: creamy Jif and grape jelly. I do prefer my bread to be wheat. Imma rebel.
rrussell (Rex Russell) says…
On a slab of dark jewish rye bread. Creamy, with copious amounts of my moms homemade goosebery jam.
justbegintowrite (Ronda Miller) says…
I'll go with Elvis's favorite. Peanut butter and marshmallow cream, slice bananas then fry it! If I'm lazy I go with multi grain bread, sans banana, replace jam with local honey.
Bobdigi (anonymous) says…
Pickles are great on pb&j sandwiches. Sweet or dill it doesn't matter.
prospector (anonymous) says…
Give me extra crunchy Jif or give me death.

With thick slices of vine ripened red tomato.

i prefer wheat bread for sammiches of any type. i like creamy peanut butter not crunchy and i like strawberry jam but will settle for grape jelly.
prospector (anonymous) says…
Bob, did you here there was a murder in Mullinsville?

smashed legumes for everybody. It is hard to beat the grape jelly swirled into the peanut butter making that delectable purple goo.
GardenMomma (anonymous) says…
Whole wheat bread, creamy peanut butter (although crunchy is all right), strawberry preserves (but grape will do in a pinch). A tall glass of ice cold milk. Sometimes sliced bananas on the sandwich is nice.
RETICENT_IRREVERENT (Ronaldo Ignacio) says…
Chunky peanut butter should only be used to bait mousetraps.
honeychild (Mel Briscoe) says…
gardenmomma, i noticed we have similar preferences-- if you're a sandwich for yourself, make me one too please. :D

Ok, now everything makes sense. There were cryptic postings on Facebook this weekend, but nobody ever really gave details and football was on. I'll have to see who it was.

Smooth peanut butter is an abomination.
Silence!
I keel you!
1029 (anonymous) says…
Dipped in batter and deep fried is the only way to go. I make pretty much every sandwich this way except for tuna salad.
75x55 (anonymous) says…
Wheat bread - extra-friggin crunchy on both pieces of bread to keep whatever jam from soaking thru.
Creamy is nothing but wall-spackling.

Creamy peanut butter is for the toothless & sissies; real men demand extra crunchy!
BABBOY (anonymous) says…
Either with Jelly, but I like to put Frito chips to make them really crunchy............ (I do not put jelly on when I put the Fritos on)
I do not eat them that often. More of meat eater.
trinity (anonymous) says…
creamy Jif on mrs. baird's fresh white bread. mmmm. occasionally with strawberry jelly. often a single slice of bread slathered in pb (Jif creamy) and with a liberal sprinkling of chocolate chips on top. mmmm. always with milk. always.
Aisling (anonymous) says…
I like mine with lettuce and tomato, heinz 57 and french fried potato. Oh wait, that's for cheeseburgers.
Um---creamy Jif and Sara Lee white bread if I'm feeling extree crazy I put a layer of potato chips.
honeychild (Mel Briscoe) says…
you know, potato chips on a PBJ doesn't sound all that bad! especially if they're lays or ruffles.
merrill (anonymous) says…
On home made sour dough wheat bread with honey or

Chunky peanut butter mixed together with orange marmalade and chocolate chips and topped with a slice of American cheese on whole wheat or 6 grain bread
fleeba (anonymous) says…
Creamy PB with Marshmallow Cream and Chocolate chips!! :) Yumm.. had me one of those just last night!
honeychild (Mel Briscoe) says…
remember when peter pan (or maybe it was jiff-- don't remember which) came out w/ that chocolate peanut better? they don't sell it anymore. but those made great sandwiches!
speed05 (anonymous) says…
Crunchy PB Kraft sandwich spread and fresh tomato slices
MadeInKS (anonymous) says…
Mmmmm... I like mine with whole wheat toast, extra-crunchy Jif ("choosy mothers choose Jif") and homemade sandhill-plum jelly.
suesay (anonymous) says…
Whole wheat Sara Lee bread, smooth peanut butter, a banana on the side and a tall glass of cold milk! A couple years and one baby ago, when I was a regular gym goer, I'd have that combo every night after working out for weeks on end and wouldn't get tired of it! For some reason, it just doesn't taste the same to me if the banana is actually on the sandwich. I don't like it!
honeychild (Mel Briscoe) says…
peanut butter and 'nana sandwiched are off the hook.
Dover (anonymous) says…
Blech! I loathe crunchy PB.
Smooth JIF with seedless blackberry preserves... grilled. Mmmm, melty.
kmat (anonymous) says…
I saw on the food network this weekend PB&J pizza. It looked so good. Spread PB on the crust and cover (completely, or else it burns the PB) with jam and bake until crust rises and jelly is really gooey.
snap_pop_no_crackle (anonymous) says…
Does anyone else remember the PB you would get in C-rations? (actually the correct term was MCI by then, but everybody called them Cs)
Eat one small can & you wouldn't have to drop a chunk for a couple of days.

creamy never crunchy, strawberry jam and white or wheat. honey and creamy works just as well but only those two choices.
charliejohnson (anonymous) says…
OK, I'm all opver the purple goo. Peanut butter mixed till creamy with grape jelly. Has anyone ever had a grilled PB&J. Rich, but tasty. I usually just like mine on plain ol white bread. And, Mel we have sammiches at our house , too.
Easy_Does_It (anonymous) says…
My Dad made one for me first he buttered both pieces of bread then the PBJ. It was incredible, but even in third grade I could see the health issues involved.

Crunchy, with my grandmother's homemade raspberrry jam on honey multi-grain bakery bread........AND a tall glass of ice cold milk! AND a bag of Fritos!!
Heaven, I'm in heaven.........
jaywalker (anonymous) says…
Oh yeah....toasted and hot in the winter!
P.S. Incorporating the fritos into the sandwich is a very good thing also, makes me feel like a kid again.

Cinnamon-raisin bagel with crunch peanut butter and cream cheese.
If you need something that will stick with you all day (working outdoors in cold weather), this is it. Don't knock it 'til you try it.
AnnaUndercover (Anna Undercover) says…
It's all about peanut butter and bananas.
labyrinth (anonymous) says…
bobdigi, right on. Dill pickles and add a little mustard to help cut it off the roof of your mouth. Actually, I think my mom was pregnant when she introduced these to me. I am in such a mood today, I think my winter project may be trying all of these. If I survive, don't bloat off the face of the earth, I'll let you know how I did.
