Yeah — tell me *YOU* wouldn't if you could....

-"BB"-

I'll pass.

I most certainly wouldn't

The only authorized ingredients of a PBJ are bread, butter, PB and strawberry (no other) jam (not jelly)

Looks as if someone already passed something on that right side slice.

You know you only get this one pass through the garden of earthly delights?

PB&J is actually best with preserves - raspberry and blackberry and strawberry rhubarb and . . .

I like peanut butter and I like jelly/jam/preserves (many flavors), but I need each to be alone on the baked product (roll, bread, toast...), never together.

As for the OP, keep the nutella and marshmallow (don't like either), and honey's good in tea and on some hot cereals, never on a sandwich.

They were best with my grandmothers raspberry preserves. Alas they are both gone now but it was a quite the find when we were cleaning out her house once everything had settled and found the downstairs freezer packed full of mason jars of those raspberry preserves to divide among the family. Gave us (well me anyway I used them sparingly) a few more years of a tangible contact with her in the way only a unique sense memory can provide.

A fluffernutter is a thing divine!

Hello middle school, I haven’t missed thee.

This is a fluffernutter - proof that marshmallow definitely has a purpose paired with peanut butter. Add chocolate, bananas, whatever strikes your fancy. Divine.

Natural peanut butter has finally reliably returned to the grocery shelves, after being bought out in the pandemic panic in March. Can't stand any of the brands that add sugar or some other vegetable oil.

What’s your favorite? Teddy’s is the brand most available around here so it’s what I get off the shelf. Crazy Richard’s is my all time favorite, they use the sweetest peanuts it’s hard to believe there is no sugar added. They have an online store, too! But they must’ve made a contract with Walmart recently because it’s available there at a great price if you want to try it. Best natural peanut butter I’ve ever had.

Interesting that I do not recognize either of those brand names (Teddy's or Crazy Richards). Adams, which was founded in Tacoma, is still the most prevalent brand in the Northwest. In California it seems to be Laura Scudders. I like them both. It turns out both have been acquired by Smuckers (speaking of PBJ which I have never been a fan of). I have tried more local artisan butters, but like Adams and Laura Scudders better. Maybe I will have to try Crazy Richards next time I am near enough a Walmart to shop there (not too many of those around here).

You can order from them online, they’ve really ramped up online selections with the pandemic. I am guessing if you spend the $8.88 for three jars of creamy, you won’t regret it. If you do decide to check it out, make sure to let me know if you love it!

eta: Crazy Richard’s is an offshoot of Krema, a Midwest nut butter brand going back to the late 1800s. https://www.crazyrichards.com/behind-the-name/

The original Crazy Richard started making natural nut butters in his home kitchen in Philly in the ‘80s. His friends called him “crazy” because no one was eating natural foods at the time.

That's not the only reason. A friend of mine worked as Crazy Richard's house cleaner in Philadelphia when he was just starting out. She told me he blended the peanuts in his bathtub.

Well luckily it’s not the 80s anymore and he has a big industrial production kitchen now.

Oh you need Fluff, Fluff, Fluff
To make a Fluffernutter
Take marshmallow Fluff
And spread with peanut butter

Flute/fife music

First you spread, spread, spread
Your bread with peanut butter
Add marshmallow Fluff
And have a Fluffernutter

Same stupid flute/fife music

When you enjoy, joy, joy
Your Fluff and peanut butter
You're glad you have enough
For another Fluffernutter

Why I remember that, no idea (and I'm sure you can google the commercial with the jingle if you really have to hear it). I tasted one once and it was enough. But a lot of my friends loved them.
