Okay, it's time for a very serious subject on beyond - namely, what is the ideal PB to jam/jelly ratio on a PB&J sandwich.

I don't think it matters if it's an open or closed faced PB&J sandwich although it might for some people. For me, I lean a little bit more to the jam/jelly side - not a lot, just a bit. Everyone in our family has a bit different idea on the correct ratio but I personally don't like the peanut butter to be on so thick as to be sticking to the roof of my mouth, that is just too much PB..

I love as much PB as I can get. That being said, I prefer an even 50/50 ratio.

The only time I find myself eating PB sandwiches is when I have absolutely nothing else to eat in the house, so I follow the David Choe method (https://youtu.be/0aCx7Z-gtuU?t=23m50s) of heavy on the PB on mine with honey (I don't think I've had jam in my house for years) until I can find something proper to eat, I call it a placeholder snack :)

I call PB&J a dessert sandwich. I usually eat them after a day of skiing or a hike or something.

Slightly more Jam than PB.

1:1. On toast so the PB melts.

Have you tried PB&J from a sandwich maker? So good!


On an asian note: who eats PB&J. It's all about the PB & Condensed Milk. Which is also a 1:1 ratio.

1:1 ratio for sure. Only chunky peanut butter.

Bread is acceptable, but French toast as the peanut butter/jam holder is preferred

Peanut butter and banana slices. Where's that option on the list?

My list, my options.

You'll just have to take your PB&banana sandwich and go pout in the corner. :)

Slightly more jam than peanut butter... And lately I've been enjoying the Planters peanut butter over Kraft.

Not really. PBJ sandwichs are pretty much a North American thing that took off in WWII cause it was cheap and filling for solders. Lots of places outside of North America have never even heard of such a thing.

Its like PB&J with Banana, Brown Sugar and Cinnamon.

So damn good but people think its disgusting.

Or go to your local grocery store and pickup a tub of Lemon Spread. Its like lemon meringue filling for bread.

Or to even go further go pick up a tub of Cinnamon Spread. That shit is awesome on toasted bread.

PB, brown sugar, and cinnamon on a wrap. Roll it up and toast it and you have a make shift baked churro :thumbsup:

I've never had PB&J either, I don't find jam/jellies appealing in any way :dunno:

1to 1 ratio except I also put butter on the peanut butter side first to help make it more creamy on lightly toasted bread.

I'm also a fan of peanut butter and sliced dill pickle sandwiches
