Inspired by yesterday’s discussion on whether or not a hotdog is a sandwich, I’ve decided to wade into the waters of filled-bread food controversy. I am of the contention that jelly belongs on top of the peanut butter. What say you, Lemmings?

    Why would you have jelly with peanut butter?

    Surely it’s too sweet? Pb and Jam is already pushing it for sweetness (still delicious though)

      Based on the “jelly” you sent, it seems that you might be in the UK, which might be causing the confusion - in the US, our “jelly” is like jam or preserves, whereas the product you posted would be called “Jello” or “gelatin” :)

        I am British, but to be honest I already know about the Americanism and was pretending not to for a joke 😅

        I like that you did explain it though, Poe’s Law is a thing after all, so it’s very possible I would be one of the people who don’t know the difference between en-GB and en-US on that particular topic
