What flavor was the jelly, gooseberry? He ate the PB&J, and a light bulb popped into his brain. Thanks, Mark.

Haha! I should have expected a quirky ending, but I didn’t see that coming. Thanks for the chuckle, Mark. 🤣

Loved this! My PBJ of choice is Jif and Lime Curd on sourdough bread. I haven't patented it so anyone is free to copy it.

Are there any other peanut butter options besides JIF? I think not. The "jelly" is a matter of personal preference, but not the PB. 🤓

Jif is where it’s at! Skippy tries but it just can’t cut it.

Peanut butter with honey, jelly, or anything is fun, rich, like dessert!

How about with a sliced banana on top?

On rye?

MMMMMM-I'm smiling!

Well... you might have just made that up, but maybe not!

Peanut butter is pretty amazing goo.

But not to the British, who often describe it as "that nasty brown stuff".

He probably kept a few around for all those late nights working in his lab.

You don't remember Shannon being called a “corker” by Tom Cruise in Far and Away?
