PB&J
SeriosEats ^ | Daniel Gritzer

Posted on 05/17/2024 7:47:03 AM PDT by DallasBiff

The PB&J is as American as it gets, and its story is spread across the internet from web page to web page as if by digital butter knife, each as recognizable to the next as the sandwich itself. I'll spare you too much of a regurgitation here, except in the broadest strokes: It supposedly started as a fancy-ish tea sandwich at the turn of the 20th century, but quickly became a popular lunchtime snack as an increasingly industrialized food system made sliced bread and store-bought jam and peanut butter a common and affordable option to Americans of all economic stripes

Fried baloney is too greasy for my taste.

As a side note, peanut butter and honey is also a great taste.

“Fried baloney is too greasy for my taste”

Gotta soak up the grease with paper towels my friend. 🙂

If it wasn’t for PB&J and baloney I would have starved to death as a kid. Oh, and butter and sugar sandwiches too.

Both Skippy and Jif now offer peanut butter with no sugar added.

The ingredients are the same: peanuts, palm oil, salt.

I cannot taste the difference between the sugar free version and the traditional recipe.

I prefer Jif over Skippy. I think the difference is Jif roasts the peanuts more.

For jelly, I also go with a brand that does not add sugar. Polander All Fruit or something sweetened with natural fruit juices.

Use multigrain bread and Abracadabra! you have a healthy sandwich.

My baloney had a first name.

Also he insisted his last name should be pronounced “bologna.”
