Right now, here’s the rules:

  1. Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
  2. It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.
  3. No AI posts whatsoever, and any images that were altered (Ex: Photoshop, Gimp) need to be tagged.

How to tag: To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz

Here are the current tags:

No one does this. The person who posted that was just trying to make trouble

My father did this when I was growing up all the time

Yeah he did that right after he came back from getting some milk from the store.

Sounds like he wanted to start a fight.

When we had field trips in early grade school, this is how they served the supplied PB&J's. I guess it kept the jelly from soaking into the bread while the sandwiches sat in a cooler for 4 hours.

Yup, it's better for when it's gonna be sitting

That not really meant for sandwiches though. That's meant for eating straight out of the jar with a dirty spoon at 4am while your standing in the kitchen in your underwear.

Or so I've heard

I'm gonna try this and if it's satisfactory, start doing it myself.

Please report back to class with your full breakdown. We are anticipating your results eagerly.

Will do. It's been a while since I've felt like pb&j, but I'll try to remember to report back when I get around to trying it.

Felt like getting a snack, so I decided to try it with a bagel. Didn't really notice a huge difference in taste, however it was significantly easier to spread. Another benefit from mixing the two is that you can spread it on toast, a bagel, etc, even if you only have a single slice, without contaminating the peanut butter or jelly/jam/preserves jar. The downside is that you have additional dishes to wash (in particular, a bowl and two spoons, one for peanut butter, the other for jelly).

My conclusion is that it's technically superior (easier to spread, can be spread on a single slice of bread). Only downside is that additional cleanup is required. As such, not a great method if you're in a time crunch and don't have the time to mix the pb&j and wash additional dishes. However, if time isn't a problem and you want a snack, try mixing pb&j.
