I know this is dumb, but I have always been fascinated with people that put the peanut butter and the jelly on the same piece of bread, why on earth would anyone do this?? You're just making a mess out of the everything. I like to look at the sandwhich and and see bread, jelly, peanut butter and bread. Nice and Neat.

Wow. Never gave that one that much thought. I do it in the way that you first describe, but that's because I consider the messy looking result to be more aesthetically pleasing to both the eye and the palate. Segregating the PB from the J during preparation results in a too clean, artificial, machine-made looking presentation IMO. I guess I prefer my PB&J to be more chaotic, which seems more natural to me. The Tao of PB&J...

Either that or its just my way of rebelling against the rigors of preparing Japanese food, where the presentation is just as important as the taste.

Oops. I hear my colleagues in their white lab smocks coming for me. Off to go tutor another unfortunate CCSN student... [Big Grin]

My algorithm is as follows. It makes two delightful peanut butter and jelly sandwiches:

1. Get out the peanut butter.

2. Get out the jelly.

3. Loosen the top on the peanut butter.

4. Loosen the top on the jelly. This often requires sticking the top under warm running water, some prying, or a combination of the two.

5. Dry the jelly jar if warm water was required.

6. Get out two spreading knives.

7. Get a paper plate.

8. Open the bread and get out the middlemost 4 slices of bread in the loaf and put them on the paper plate, stacked on top of each other exposing only the top piece of bread.

9. Take one of the spreading knives and spread the appropriate amount of peanut butter on the top piece of bread.

10. Lay the top slice with the peanut butter on it to the side of the stack, peanut butter side up.

11. Use the spreading knife that you used for the peanut butter on the first slice to spread peanut butter on the second slice of bread (now on the top of the original stack).

12. Lay this second piece of bread (peanut butter side up) beside the stack and the other piece of bread with peanut butter on it.

13. Put the top on the peanut butter and set it aside.

14. Take the second spreading knife (the clean one) and use it to spread jelly on the third slice of bread.

15. Take that slice you just put jelly on and set it down next to all the other bread you've been working with, jelly side up.

16. Take one of the pieces of peanut buttered bread and place it peanut butter side down on top of the jellied bread, observing correct orientation if the slices of bread aren't perfectly square.

17. Take the same spreading knife you used for the jelly and use it to put jelly on the only clean single piece of bread (that isn't part of a sandwich).

18. Put that last jellied piece of bread down, jelly side up, next to all the other bread.

19. Take the only remaining single piece of bread that is peanut butter side up and put it peanut butter side down on top of the single jelly-up piece of bread, observing correct oriientation in case the slices aren't perfectly square.

20. Put the top on the jelly and put it back in the refrigerator.

21. Put the two spreading knives in the sink.

22. Eat the two sandwiches.

23. Wash off the sprading knives so the peanut butter and jelly aren't hard to wash off later.

24. Leave the paper plate and knives in the sink for your mother to take care of next time she's at your house.

Comments:

Step 6: Two spreading knives are used so that you don't contaminate the jelly in the jelly jar with peanut butter, or the peanut butter in the peanut butter jar with the jelly.

Step 8: The middlemost 4 slices are usually the freshest. Stacking them while fixing the sandiches minimizes the surface of bread that is exposed directly to air, keeping the slices the freshest longest.

Step 9: Peanut butter is spread first because bread will not get dry as quickly with peanut butter on it. You don't want jelly sitting on bread too long before eating it since it might make the bread soggy.

Steps 15 and 16: Why not just combine these steps into "Put the jellied bread, face down on top of one of the peanut buttered pieces of bread"? Turning a jellied piece of bread is more likely to cause a drip of jelly and make a mess than turning a peanut buttered piece of bread upside down.

Steps 18 and 19: See comment for steps 15 and 16.

Get a jar that already has the PB & J mixed together. Use your finger to spread the PB & J onto one side of a piece of bread. Lick your finger clean (no need to wash a knife, you could cut yourself). Fold the bread in half. Now the most improtant part: pop open a beer, and enjoy. [Big Grin] [beer] [Big Grin]

Be sure your finger is good and clean, getting PB out of sproket holes is a pain! [uhoh]

It's definitely one of the stranger threads I've responded to on film-tech over the years.

However, it was a nice diversion from working on a presentation that I'm working on for tomorrow morning. Taking that side trip helped me organize my thoughts more.

Bruce, about using fingers -- that's kinda disturbing for making sandwiches, but for fingerpainting walls with a mixture of peanut butter and jelly, it would be totally groovy.

And Bruce, don't be giving anyone ideas about sabotaging projectors with peanut butter and jelly. [evil] [Big Grin]

Hay, could PB be used to stop oil leaks in a Simplex? The bread could be used to clean up the oil that had leaked in the past. We could be on to something here!

What is the history of the peanut butter and jelly sandwich?
 
Posted by Carl Martin (Member # 1146) on 10-14-2003, 06:09 PM:
 
evans, do you buy/bake a new loaf of bread every time you want a sandwich or do you settle for not-so-fresh the next time around?

also, your method doesn't ensure that the sandwiches are made from adjacent slices from the loaf, which is essential for mess-abatement.

first i take the pb and the j out of the fridge, then i take the bread out of the freezer. i break off a block of 4 slices (the heel is fine; what use is a singleton heel?) and put it on a plate or saran wrap. i remove the top slice and examine the 2 newly exposed bread surfaces. the surface with the fewest holes is earmarked for jelly (less leakage). if one slice is the heel that will be the jelly slice. with a good stiff knife i pb up the other slice before it thaws, so the bread isn't too soft to take the hard chilled pb. i repeat the process for the bottom 2 slices. then with a spoon i jelly up the other 2 slices and pair them with their respective mates.

if i toast the bread, as i did today, then the heated bread will soften the pb enough to spread.

using the same utensil/finger to spread the pb and the j is not pbj done right!

I would prefer to start with a fresh loaf of bread for every pair of sandwiches, because I hate stale bread. I can't cope with that "not so fresh" feeling.

Adam, as for my instructions not including the removal of the lids of the jelly and peanut butter jars, I didn't want the instructions to be so ridiculously low-level that the intelligence of the reader would be insulted. [evil]

So, from the posts, it sounds like Chris Hipp, me, and Carl Martin would be the neatest peanut butter and jelly sandwich makers.

I use the new squeeze bottle jellys(grape always of course.) It renders the second knife unneeded and hence less dishwashing. LOL

If I am in a hurry or don't particularly give a flip about what I am reading, you bet! The first sentence of a paragraph should let you know what the content of that paragraph is anyway.

People who make insanely long paragraphs tend to not get their point across as well because many people flat out skip it ("too much to read") or people get lost in the middle of the paragraph as the topic changes (a big no no). Keeping paragraphs shorter also assists with people being able to read the material faster, of which I have been told I am a fast reader. [Shrug]

In short, if someone wants their stuff to be read, split it up into multiple paragraphs and more people will read it.

Why do you use a knife?

It is an inefficient tool for the job at hand. The jelly slips off the knife when trying to scoop it out of the jar. Why not use a spoon? You can scoop a nice blob of jam/jelly/preserves out of the jar with ease when using a spoon.

Now, I know that the reply will be: "It's too hard to get all the peanut butter out of the 'hollow' of the bowl of the spoon." Simple. Just turn the spoon around backwards and use it that way. No peanut butter will get into the bowl of the spoon. It'll be easy to wipe the PB onto the bread.

If you REALLY want to guild the lilly, you could use a utensil called a Spoon-U-La.

-

It's a rubber spatula with one side concave like a spoon. It is THE PERFECT tool for spreading things like icing or transfering "gloppy" substances from one container to another and still maintain the ability to scrape every bit of it from the sides of the container. You can get them from most good cooking stores and they come in several sizes to fit into most containers that you might come up against.

I don't know why people use a knife. I've used a spoon for as long as I can remember. It just seems like "PB & J Done Right" to me! [Wink]

Some of you fellows are griping about stale bread? Sheesh, I'm a bachelor. There's no such thing as stale bread in my house. It just doesn't last long enough. And then I go for a spell when I cannot stand the sight of another sandwich. That's "bachelor food" for you!

I have one idea that I would like to try for making a good PB&J sandwich. A well endowed lady with a taste for things a little more kinky would be a prerequisite. Rub some PB on one breast. Apply jelly (not KY) to the other breast. Put the bread in the clevage. Mash breasts together. Pull out bread and rotate slices 180 degrees. Voila! Kinky PB&J!

BTW: you lick off the residue left behind on the willing lady's bodacious ta tas. [thumbsup]

I have no problem using a knife. I don't know how it could be any easier. If I had problems I might consider using something else.

Food has no place during sexual encounters (yes John Lasher I know. I don't care). The tongue could be used for more exciting activities anyway. Besides, food is great immediately afterwards when you have kicked her out and you want to sit down and relax with a good sandwich that you forced her to make for you just minutes before and then go to sleep. You don't want to already be full when that time comes around. [Smile]

We have an interesting point here in the fact that in Australia the meaning of the word "jelly" may be different to the US.
Down under, and in the UK, jelly is a semi- solid sweet made from gelatine,sugar and flavouring dissolved in boiling water which when set is eaten usually with ice-cream.
Is this the same as the jelly referred to?

Posted by Randy Stankey (Member # 64) on 10-15-2003, 05:43 PM:
 
John,

In America, jelly is usually made from fruit juice and fruit pectin. It is cooked until the pectin thickens the juice. If the mixture has crushed/cut-up fruit in it you get jam. If you have mostly fruit with just enough of the juice to make the mixture gel, you get preserves. If you use cirtus fruits and put in part of the rind and pulp instead of the whole fruit you get marmalade.

To oversimplify: Jelly = Jam.

Bathroom turned out OK. I got my Stepfather (general housing contractor) to come over and give us an "estimate" on how much it would take to do the job. Once he started adding up all the dollar signs my wife said, "Forget about it!".

I simply put down a couple of sheets of 1/4 inch underlayment, installed a nice self-adhesive vinyl tile floor, cut a hole for the pipe and replaced the toilet in its old location. Everything looks beautiful!

Of course we WON'T mention that I talked to my Stepdad on the phone beforehand, told him that I DIDN'T want to move the toilet and asked him to ham it up a bit! [evil]

So... That's how I got myself out of that JAM!

My church youth group had a game night where we had to write detailed instructions for making a PB&J sandwich, and then we had to make it according to our own instructions. So, I--being the asshole/geek that I was(?) at the time--wrote the following on the paper.

START
RUN RTRVBRED.BAS
RUN SPREADPB.BAS
RUN SPRDJLLY.BAS
RUN BRD2GTHR.BAS
RUN ETSAMICH.BAS
END

I went on a workcamp with the same group, since I was a "senior" I was made a group leader.

I was always the last person to the lunch cooler, and for some reason (I'm sure out of personal revenge) the kitchen crew always made 5 PB&J sandwiches and 20 Cheese (One slice of yellow american between 2 slices of Wonder bread) apparently one of the adults believed that a cheese sandwich was a fine and dandy lunch for people working outside all day in the AZ sun tearing down a building with electric screwdrivers, sledgehammers and willpower.

...

I like my sandwiches wrapped in waxed paper, plastic wrap will do, if it's all that's available, but I prefer waxed paper.

I had the best roast beef sandwich I ever ate today. I got it at a Sheetz on my way home from Warren, PA and I ordered it digitally, so it's a billion-- no! a TRILLION times better than any sandwich I order the regular, old-fashioned, analog, speaking-with-a-real-person way at Subway. From now on I'm driving the 150+ miles just to get to that sheetz station on my lunch break! (Actually the sandwich was quite tasty.)

Don't mind me, I don't like miracle whip / mayonaise ... they have their uses*, I just don't like 'em on sandwiches!

I'm a fan of the [crunchy] peanut butter & [mashed] banana sandwich. Yum!!
Then again, peanut butter & honey is a good combo.
And if you dig on fluff - that goes well with pb too.

* Something you may have never thought to put Miracle Whip in - Chocolate Cake!

~2 cups of flour
~1 cup of sugar
~4 heaping tablespoons of baking cocoa
~2 teaspoons of baking soda
~1 cup of miracle whip
~1 cup of cold water

Mix 'em all together, beat until smooth, pour into a greased & floured 9"x13" baking pan - or two 8" round cake pans - bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes.
Allow to cool before frosting.

And speaking of frosting, this one is easy & yummy (sorry Rachel)! [eyes]
Peanut Butter Frosting!

~ 1/3 cup of [smooth] peanut butter
~ 3 cups confectioners' sugar
~ 1/3 cup of milk
~ 1 teaspoon of vanilla flavoring or almond extract

Mix 'em all together until smooth, occasionally, a twisker more moo juice might be needed to get the frosting to a consistancy that's spreadable, too much though, and it will be quite runny.

Cooking and baking are so much fun. [Big Grin]

YOU ARE ALL WEIRDOS! UGH!!!

I was unaware that Film-Techers had such a passion for PB&J.

I'm gonna go laugh and giggle while thinking of the Peanut Butter and Jelly in the same jar... really I'll be thinking of Mr. Show and Mayostard... Mustardayonnaise... Mustmayostardayonnaise.

I'm another lover of PB and Miracle Whip. Also can't get enough of blackberry preserves and PB.

In another context, PB is a great lubricant. Avoid chunky, though.

Gosh Paul, come outta your shell and live a little. Take a chance. ALWAYS try new things! [Razz]

I've never seen a maggot gag on anything. But, I have seen blood-suckers blow up from sucking too much blood outta bruises... [Cool]

BTW Jason, where have I heard that B4? [evil]

Thanks for all the PB&J recipes. I have been trying them all out. Well actually my children have been getting surprise sandwiches in their lunches everyday and I get a report when they get home.
They're not really the happiest kids right now. They have decided to make their own lunches from now on. That makes me happy.
I think it had something to do with the peanut butter and Miracle Whip. That seemed to have really upset them. [puke]

Bruce,

I dare not ask what you're *lubing up* with PB... [Eek!]

Coot,
I think maybe I said it to Josh and, well, the rest is history.

Josh,
Might be picking up a V-Rod from Ebay if I can get the seller to get his head right... SuuWeeet. [thumbsup]

What about the wonderfull invention of the PB&J slices. It's a square about the size of slice of american cheese, with peanut butter on one side and jelly on the other. It's all put together for you. All you have to do is unwrap, and put it on bread.

...and [puke] when you realize how bad it tastes compared to the real thing. [Big Grin]

While researching "peanut butter and jelly slices" on Google, I came across this:

======

3. P.J. Singles individually wrapped peanut butter and jelly slices.

In the paleolithic "Betty Crocker" days, busy parents had to open two separate jars to make a delicious, nutritious peanut butter and jelly sandwich for their kids -- a process that would take upwards of three minutes. The advent of Goober Grape (Crappy winner, 1974) cut that time in half. But today, pressed-for-time paterfamilias don't have time to open any jars, even ones that contain peanut butter AND jelly, helpfully pre-swirled for your spreading ease. That's where the twin genies of food chemistry and marketing come in. P.J. Singles come wrapped in a plastic sheath, exactly like "American cheese" slices (Lifetime Achievement Award, 1989), and are made of ingredients that are similar, in many important ways, to peanut butter and jelly. Your kids won't be able to tell the difference after a few drinks, and more importantly, you'll save untold microseconds by just being able to unwrap the slice and whack it down on some white bread, instead of all that dangerous and laborious messing around with jars and knives!

(Ludic Log, "The 2002 Crappys")
