"Grilled PB&J"? As in, warm jelly? Ewww! Yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck. I feel like I need a shower now, and I just got out.

It's got to be smooth, and it DEFINITELY has to be JIF.
When I was a kid, I'd slather peanut butter on Triscuits and put cheese popcorn on top. I was a strange kid.

There's an Elvis restaurant in Memphis where you can get grilled PB and banana sandwiches. Yummy. Stay away from the batter fried pickles though.

I've never had a grilled PBJ, but I do sometimes like to toast the bread. The peanut butter is great melted, and the jelly is still cold.
I prefer creamy, Cor prefers crunchy. So I buy both, and the girls get crunchy . . . more creamy for me! Posts: 1112 | Registered: Jan 2003

Interesting fact = it's pretty hard to find peanut butter in Europe -- folks don't eat it much there -- and Nutella is WAY more popular...

I believe it's uncommon everywhere outside of the US. I know my father had never heard of peanut butter before he immigrated here, and he never developed a taste for it. The public assistance that refugees got at the time included, along with the famous government cheese, a tub of peanut butter in each alottment, and he told me that these were basically always thrown out by everyone he knew . . . they couldn't even find people to give them away to!

There's plenty of peanut butter in the Philippines. I sure felt lucky to have it when I was there! Theirs tended to be sweet and runny, though.

You can add me to the "no salt in my peanut butter" crowd.
The only thing in my Arrowhead Mills crunchy peanut butter is organic peanuts.
Funny story: When my daughter was a toddler she would only eat Arrowhead Mills smooth peanut butter. My mother tried feeding her different (cheaper) brands of organic peanuts only smooth peanut butter on a couple of occasions and she rejected it outright, even though she hadn't even seen the jar the peanut butter came from.
That's one of the reasons we have used Arrowhead Mills over the years, though she is no longer quite so picky.
