Peanut butter and Jelly is the best sandwich

Crunchy PB, grape jelly, white bread. Let it sit in the fridge until the jelly becomes one with the bread.

Sometimes I wish I was a fatty so I could enjoy PB&J every day.
 
Was thinking about this today when I stopped at home for a quick bite. Sure, it may not be as glamorous or fancy as some of your big name sandwiches but it checks every box:
Can be made for pennies.
Kids will eat it.
Won't go bad if left unrefrigerated for a few days.
Fills you up.
Healthy.
Tasty.
Potential to kill off losers with peanut allergies.

What more could you want?

False.

Grilled cheese is the best sandwich. Even when you make it with boring white commercial sliced white bread and %*%*y American cheese it's still one of the best things on the planet. But make it from a good quality homemade or bakery bread and use a high quality melting cheese or even better...cheeses like Havarti, butterkase, gruyère, camembert, etc...and maybe even add a crumble or shred or two of some more flavorful cheeses like gjetost, truffle tremor, goat cheese, a blue of some sort....and it's absolutely heaven.

Close, but it has a fatal flaw - it's only good while hot.

That looks awesome. You just out-Tribed Tribe on the grilled cheese, except you did it via video instead of a long, elaborate post. Wood.

Meh. I'm a huge Alton Brown and love 95% of his suggestions but the bread to cheese ratio was way off. That was more like toasted bread lightly seasoned with cheese.

Skippy Super Crunch and whole fruit preserves (I prefer strawberry myself) on toast. I like the way it makes the PB melt and makes it even creamier. Nearly perfect.

Why would this ever happen? They take 30 seconds to make. 30 seconds to eat. And the fact you jut made it means you’re about to eat it. Who would eat a 3 day old counter PBJ?

PB Melt?

Interesting.... I'm going to experiment with a smoked PB&J this weekend. I'll keep y'all updated if I remember to do it.

Yeah...aNd still a more picky eater than someone who’d eat a three day old moldy PBnJ. Just admit it was a dumb thing to add to the list of things that make it a good sandwich. You had plenty of other perfectly reasonable points. You flew too close to the sun with that one.

Bread goes moldy in your home in 3 days? You live in the bayou? I’ve taken PB&Js on backpacking trips, they’re good whatever day I eat them. Sorry you’re fat.

I’m fat? You’re the one eating a three day old 10 cent sandwich. What kind of scummy poor person are you? Just throw it out and make a new one. Better yet, don’t leave garbage out on the counter for three days. That’s how you get rats in your trailer. Have a little respect for yourself and go dumpster diving. Might get a better catch!

Best sammich is a hot meatball sub, on garlic bread with melted mozzarella. Sorry.

Yes - the guy never more than 3 feet from his fridge is fat. If you ever left your house you’d understand the beauty of foods that don’t need refrigeration.

Yeah. Never get out. Right. Says the guy who thinks eating a three day old pre-made sandwich is the pinnacle of fine dining. Just admit it. It was a dumb point to make. Admit it and we can move on to other dumb things you say.

Fine dining? You’re making up shit again- you must be losing again. Again.

You claimed it’s the BEST sandwich and used the fact you can leave it out for three days and eat it as proof. Maybe you forgot what the word BEST means. Yeah...fine dining.
 
Cheap Ramen and eggs is the ultimate poor people foods.
I used to eat that all the time in school. Cook the ramen with minimal water. Then as it is mostly evaporated crack in a couple eggs. When mostly cooked put a slice of cheese on top and some ham slices over the cheese. Flip over and sear the ham until the cheese melts. Breakfast of champions that can take through a whole school day.

The odd thing about PB&J is it is difficult to improve. Unlike most sandwiches, toasting makes it worse. Adding things makes it worse. Using more expensive ingredients makes it worse. With PB&J, the simpler the better.

The “best” of a certain food, food group, or prepared does not always mean fine dining. Are you dumb AF? Is the best pickle (spicy dill spears) fine dining? Is the best fried food item fine dining?

btw...

Anyone ever “grill” a peanut butter, jelly, and bacon sandwich? It’s amazing. Throw a banana in there to sub for jelly if you’d like.

False. The best sammich consists of oven roasted turkey, swiss, honey mustard, and a toasted bread of your choice.
