It's funny you say that.
I love peanut butter & jelly.
However; did you ever see the jar with both of them already mixed, like a swirl?
I've never had it, but think it's disgusting.... and I don't know why.
What you speak of is Smuckers Goober, and is now available in Grape and Strawberry, it is delicious....
I don't know why anyone would think its not good, granted the goober is off, because I like a certain butter to jelly ratio and the goober tosses that out the window before you even open the jar, I suppose it would be good for the 50 50 guys, but then you only have smooth/creamy pb, what if you like chunky, now you need a package of peanut chips to sprinkle on it and that is a pain...
I have to say this... I find there are three types of people in this world...
1-Likes PB and J
2-Likes Grilled Cheese
3- likes both {this is me, I love them both, I could live on grilled cheese and pb and J}...
Anyway, today was almost a pb and j day, but I had to clear the driveway SO it is now a Grilled Cheese day with Tomato soup {home made tomato soup , is so fast, 1 sweet onion, a couple pieces of garlic, a scoop of parmesean chz, 3 large tomatoes, 1/4 cup heavy cream, couple table spoons of olive oil, blend it all then heat it up {minus the cream} for 10 minutes, then stir in the cream heat for a few more minutes, done....}
For the grilled chz I am using Martin Potato Bread and Sargento Muenster cheese, this is even easier than the soup, just get the pan hot, wipe butter on it put the sandwich on it then flip it and its done... My mother used to smear butter on the bread, but I don't like it that way, I just butter the pan a little, unsalted butter.... oh and I sprinkle a little garlic powder on the cheese before I close it up...
Thats it, I just finished eating, I had 3 grilled cheese and ate almost the entire pan of soup, my wife stole about a 1/2 cup for her lunch before I added the chz and milk {shes vegan so none of that for her}....
But now talking about pb and j I will probably eat one before dinner... but it will be pb2 and fresh fruit since I just ate 1000 calories of cheese, bread, and butter...
