Why not? Have you gone out of your way to avoid trying it?

I knew a guy who had never tried coffee before at age 23... he brought it up whenever coffee came up, denying himself an experience a lot of people get pleasure from just to have some kind of an "interesting fact" about himself.

> Not just ditching the jelly entirely and loading up on 2x peanut Butter

Seriously though, never cared for jams or jellys of any kind. Especially on a sandwich. I just didn't like the taste of Peanut Butter with sweet fruit.

Besides, Peanut Butter is up there in the Elder God Tier of foods. I could eat that shit strait from the jar with a spoon.

That's just me though.

Lol fuck no, 1 spread is enough, in America you must have 2, and then fry it.
>>
>>4002091
preserves is a broad category that includes both jam and jelly.

jam is made from mashed whole fruit, often includes pectin.
jelly is made from fruit juice.

I know that Peanut butter & Jelly is supposed to be some kind of classic.
But it must be very American somehow.

As a foreigner, I can say that the very idea comes off as quite insane, almost preposterous.
What is the source of this crazy idea? And how come it has stuck around as a classic? And how come it's considered food and not some kind of "candy" thing?

No offence, it just baffles me. No need to pay heed to the foreigner if you don't want to.
>>

Just because it is American does not make it bad. Don't knock it til you try it.
>>
>>4002445
>Don't knock it til you try it.
Well I have. And I didn't mean to imply that it was "bad" as per say.
But how one would consider it to be "food" is almost beyond me.

Having peanut butter, or jelly on the sandwich is pushing it enough. Slamming both in it is pretty much breaching the limits.

Jelly is sweet and and nutritious, peanut butter is nutty and full of protein. It makes for healthy kids

What the fuck?
Have you never had jelly or jam on bread, toast, muffins, scones, etc?
And peanut butter in sandwiches seems like a fucking given. I love peanut butter sandwiches. Most people put peanut butter on bread, what the fuck else do you put it on?
>>
>>4002448


Limits on food? No wonder you guys are into socialism.
>>
>>4002432
No. As stated earlier, preserves are whole chunks of fruit in a jam. Jam is gelled fruit pulp. Jelly is gelled fruit juice. Marmalade is a slightly bitter spread jam made from citrus and citrus peels. Fruit butter is fruit cooked down into mush and then sweetened. That should cover everything.
>>
>>4002455
No need to turn this into a health class. But just a heads up.

Fat makes you incapable of properly processing the sugar. Butter and jam, especially peanut butter and jam, is pretty much the quickest path to diabetes.

And peanut butter by itself is actually not all that healthy. Peanut butter dishes around Asia is quite common, but they are really mostly considered festivities almost in line with dessert more so than actual food. It's fairly recognized that peanut butter is pretty much among the worst part of the nut extracted.
Generally speaking it's a lot healthier to just eat tons of nuts than peanut butter.

And jelly does have nutrition, but it shouldn't be a surprise that adding that much sugar is pushing it.

And I am not saying that neither of these are acceptable, because I am in no way such a prude. But they are products where you need to think of moderation, and the idea of mixing them is pretty far out there.

>... What do YOU think peanut butter is?
Processed peanuts. But not whole peanuts.
There are peanut butter kinds with peanut crunches in it, but the butter itself is still not whole peanuts.

It's like apple juice. Apple juice is made out of apples, but you throw away the vast majority of the apple in order to savour the juice.
Now, if you were to simply eat apples, you would get full before you even got a couple of glasses of juice in you.
>>
>>4002493
If by processed you mean blended to a smooth consistency. Good peanut butter should have 1 ingredient: peanuts. Anything else is shit.

It's not like apple juice at all. Every edible part of the peanut is used.
>>
>>4002493
Horrible analogy.
It's ground nutmeats. They're technically legumes. But, anyway, it's not pressed and filtered like juice. WOW. Did you grow up under a rock? Have you not made your own peanut butter?

The reason fruit juice is bad for you and fruit isn't is because there is no fibre in fruit juice (because all of it is in the flesh and skin, which the juice doesn't contain).

I know the Wikipedia/dictionary definition of preserve, but every preserve/conserve I've seen are the same; whole or chunks of fruit cooked so that they set. I wish people were consistent with the definition but they aren't.

To be honest, it should be about half that. According to calorie count, 32g of peanuts has 1.3 g of sugar.

Maybe, but the claim was that peanut butter is more sugar than peanuts. I understand that it was meant to be a hyperbole, but it doesn't even make sense considering that sugar is less than 10% of the entire product. There's no harm in exaggerating a little bit to make a point but you can't go around making mountains out of mole hills like that.

You realize peanuts have oil in them, right? Where do you think Peanut Oil comes from?

You grind peanuts and the oil is released. It turns into a paste without needing to add anything else
>>
>>4002721
yeah they have oil in them before you roast them. But peanut butter is made from roasted peanuts. Thus the addition of oil. And sugar is added for taste.

>>
>>4002914

putting sugar in peanut butter should be disallowed by the FDA. it should be called sugar with peanuts added.
>>
>>4002525

that isn't inconsistent. if conserves are a subset of preserves then every conserve can be labelled as a preserve.

obviously just going off the words themselves, all the terms are basically interchangeable with the exception of jam. they are all preserved/conserved fruit, and they are all gels made with pectin. conserving something does carry a vague connotation that you're processing it less though.
>>
>>4002724

added oil isn't usually a part of the roasting stage. they use it when they turn it into a paste to modify the texture sometimes. generally it isn't necessary.

>>4002727

if it doesn't separate that means they didn't use an emulsifier. lots of hippy products use lecithin. cheap supermarket peanut butters separate about as much as hippy ones.

as far as the addition of sugar goes, there are many products with no added sugar that don't have hippy credentials.

fellow foreigner here and i too am baffled. But mostly because:

>But how one would consider it to be "food" is almost beyond me

this is kinda dumb.
But!
Let me break it down for u:

maybe you're familliar with putting butter on bread, then
jam on top? (that's what we do anyway)
It is not to use too much jam. Or maybe it just tastes good. Anyway, all they did was replace butter with
peanut butter, and it works (for me anyway, I almost
always eat jam with PB).

>How is it food?

Well, here is where it gets tricky:
bread = food, made out of flour, water, yeast, salt
jam = preserved cooked fruit and sugar
PB = ground up peanuts, added salt and oil (if home made)

>Extra points if you knew: salt in PB makes jam sweeter, hence the mass appeal. (probably)

It's not just Americans that are "crazy".
Russians put jam in their fucking tea and coffe.
(Still need to try that awesomeness)
