GRAPE-jelly in a squeezy, ketchup-style plastic bottle mixed with plastic bottle peanut butter in a standard-issue IKEA bowl, only then applied between two non-wholegrain, untoasted toasts.
Can someone add a YEAH, a guitar, an eagle and the US-American flag as effects?
Nope, that’s not American traditional, and you can’t put that concoction on us.
Also, it’s really a stretch to call peanut butter “infamous sugar cream”. It’s got like 3g of sugar per 30g peanut butter. That’s pretty close to just plain peanuts. It’s not Nutella with it’s 50% sugar content.
You avoid eating too much peanut butter because peanuts are basically little nuggets of oil with the minimum amount of fiber and protein required for them to be a solid.
Yeah, to keep it from separating they remove some of the sugar and oil and replace it with ones that don’t separate so much. Molasses is a popular choice since it’s got the “liquid” consistency you need and no negative marketing connotations like hfcs does.
It’s one of the only cases I can think of where sugar isn’t being added to adjust the flavor, but for it’s chemical properties.
You can even do it at home. Blend peanuts, let it separate and pour off the oil, and add shortening and a splash of molasses. Maybe some salt to bring out the flavor. Reblend.
Not op, but absolutely yes. Toast first, apply PB and J while still warm. If you have a toaster oven, stack the bread so the inside stays soft but warm.
Just like witn fried PBJ, you should use less PB than usual, it can get larynx glueingly sticky if you use too much, ask me how I know. Self heimlich is worth knowing.
I like to do the opposite - toast the inside of the bread in butter, and leave the outside soft and untoasted. The pb gets melty and squidges out the sides a bit since it’s on the hot side of the bread, but you get the nice soft pillowy texture on the outside which is nicer on the roof of my mouth, so I accept the messy trade-off.

Only children prefer PB with sugar added. Get Adams brand or “old-fashioned” style PB, no added sugar.
Yeah, I remembered the PB sugar content wrong (I guess I was flabberghasted that they even added sugar in some PBs).

Do you toast your pbj bread? Before or after you apply the pbj?
Not op, but absolutely yes. Toast first, apply PB and J while still warm. If you have a toaster oven, stack the bread so the inside stays soft but warm.

Square bread belongs in an upright toaster before applying any topping, always :)
TBH, I’ve never seen a toaster oven.
[Offtopic] TIL There’s even a movie about a toaster: The Brave Little Toaster 1987
