    I prefer anything but grape jelly (yuck) My fave pb&j is open face on toast with a tiny bit of butter to soften the bread. PB on both slices, then jelly on both slices. Eat one slice at a time. Seriously hits the spot...

    Welch's concord grape is only the best jelly ever made and the only acceptable jelly for the perfect PB&J. Along with skippy pb (not the fancy natural stuff). You need PB on both slices of bread and jelly in the middle, to prevent leakage on the go!

    See, she knows where it's at! :drinker:

    PB & Co Smooth Operator & Smucker's Strawberry Jam.

    Or if you want to get REALLY CRAZY use PB & Co White Chocolate Wonderful and some raspberry jam.

    Edit: I'm not crazy about grape jelly, but the best grape jelly I got was at Whole Foods. I don't recall the brand name, but I think there was a panda on the the jar.

    My dad's weird combo is Peanut butter and Mayo.... :sick:

    But now I want a peanut butter and lettuce sandwich.

    I've heard of people eating that, but I can't wrap my brain around it, and not sure I want to waste my precious peanut butter trying that combo. Peanut butter and lettuce?! My mom made peanut butter hamburgers once. They were disgusting. I can still remember the taste.

    I'd much rather do PB, banana & mayo myself on any old bread

    Yeah no hamburger... but I do like the lettuce though... it has to be iceburg.

    I will say, OP, I'm right there with you on the potato bread. Makes an awesome sammich!:drinker:

    It's so soft and thick, and more protein than regular. I buy the whole wheat slider rolls, but my kids will only eat the original.

    What? No lightly toasting the bread to sanctify the sammy? That's sacrilege! :angry:

    That's ok, too. Also grilled. *ahem* I think I need some alone time.

    This...so very much this. And I believe that's strawberry there...the best kind of j.

    I can't. Even. Gross. Someone was either pregnant or stoned. :noway:

    To erase that from my memory, I'll post a pb&j on Martin's potato bread. The internet is amazing!

    My elementary school used to sell those. Yeah, that's good. And so is Peanut Butter & Co.'s Bees Knees.

    Why, Oh Why is everyone straying from the original recipe?!?! Why is everyone hating on Grape jelly????
    Did you say if it must be Crunchy or Creamy?
    Who the heck is putting Pickles on it????

    I MUST emphasize that is only a perfect PB&J sandwich when the PB has been smeared on the entire bread...no leaving corners uncovered!!!! Hate That!!!

    May I have wine with mine?

    You forgot the tablespoon of salt.

    Pumpernickle, crunchy PB, black raspberry jam, with a pickle and string cheese on the side, and a glass of milk. Still my most favorite meal ever.

    You're supposed to put the Pb on, but make a little ridge around the edge of the bread so the jelly fits in and doesn't squeeze out!
