Don’t get me wrong, if you have a good jam or preserves it’s totally fine on a sandwich, and I wouldn’t turn my nose up at it. However, peanut butter doesn’t really need the help, and the extra sweetness from jelly is totally unnecessary. Toasted bread and peanut butter is all you need for a quality simple sandwich.
Better unpopular opinion: US-style peanut butter is disgusting. It is sweetened and has an off-putting structure. European style peanut butter is way better.
More popular opinion: the best topping for peanut butter is sambal, which is an Indonesian style chilli paste
You understand we have real PB in the states, too, right? The fact that you chose to buy crap in the states does not reflect poorly on us. The PB I buy is not sweetened.
That would be like me going to Vietnam, trying pho with tripe, and concluding that all pho in Vietnam has tripe.
You have even more real PB in the states because it’s protected and must contain at least 90% peanuts, this is not the case in the EU.
Came here to say I put a ton of cayenne pepper on mine. Guess I’ll try sambal and Tabasco too
