- Hi my name's Sam, and I have never
had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
(lounge music)
- Today, we are going to be trying a peanut butter
and jelly sandwich, or peanut butter and jam sandwich,
PB and J, a classic.
- I wouldn't have thought these two things
could go together.
It doesn't actually make any sense to me.
- I don't...
Oh, what do you reckon?
- Quite frankly, if I do end up liking a PB and J,
I think it's only because my love of bread
and my love of jam has superseded my hate of peanut butter.
- I don't really like peanut butter that much,
but I support it, because it was invented by a black man.
So, you know, read up your history,
but I do love jam.
- Jam, I'm right down with, but I'm not like...
You need to stop.
Ah, god.
This is the perils of trying to film when you're at home.
- There's nothing really weird that I have
in a sandwich, like bacon and avocado.
Like that's quite normal, isn't it?
- I love a ketchup sandwich.
I used to have that so much in school, do you know?
Just like on a slice of bread and then you fold it over.
Yeah, mm.
- My sister used to love chocolate spread a lot
as a kid on, in the sandwiches.
It looked a bit like someone wiped their ass on the bread,
so I wasn't that much, that keen on that, to be honest.
- How does one make a PB and J?
- Is it rocket science?
- Get you one slice put butter on it and put the other,
(cat meowing)
put jam on the other slice, and then whack it together.
- The idea of like peanut butter and jam there,
just does not bear thinking about.
- I'm gonna go go to the shops now
and pick up some peanut butter.
I'm back, here's my peanut butter.
I didn't know whether to get crunchy or smooth,
so I got smooth, 'cause I don't like to fight with my food.
- Obviously got white bread because it's the least healthy
and the most tasty.
- So, I've got my bread, good old Warbs.
- Oh yeah, this is good.
Peanut butter, ooh yeah.
- You know when you spread something
and it breaks the bread?
Don't piss me off.
Shout out to the construction workers,
building outside and messing up all my videos.
- I guess it is pretty like jellified.
- Oh my god (grunting).
(jar tapping)
What's going on here?
Steph?
(lid clanking)
Thank you.
- I've just got a bit of a weird relationship with jam.
I don't mind it, it just gives off a bit of a weird vibe.
- All right then, (mumbles).
I think of like on cartoons, it's like seeping out,
but mine isn't.
- Two nicely, evenly spread.
Done.
Do you wanna try some?
Do you reckon?
No?
Not ask.
- Here it is.
Ooh, ah, ooh.
An American classic.
- First ever PB and J, I'm quite excited actually.
- Hey up.
- Oh my god.
- Okay.
- It's actually not the worst thing I've ever
put in my mouth.
- You know what?
That's actually class.
- That isn't for me.
- The jam is kind of like the dom,
and that's what's coming through.
- Really hits, like, it's pretty tasty.
- That, what does it taste, it doesn't taste good.
- Do I like this?
Maybe.
Maybe I do.
I've eaten one whole half.
- Every food should be sweet and savory.
Why split up main and dessert,
when you could just whack it all in one go?
- It's like when you get sweet and salted popcorn,
but like that works.
This ain't it.
- It is for kids really,
but they know what they're doing,
they know what they're talking about, yeah.
This is like, this is premium sandwich level.
- Ruining the jam experience.
It's not the one for me.
I'm actually, now I feel like I've
wasted a bit of jam doing this.
- I'm gonna say I do like it.
(gentle music)
I don't know if I want the other half though.
It's quite, it's a lot.
- I mean, I think the reason why they are so popular
is it's literally, they are, they are tasty.
Like you can't deny the taste.
- Do you know what?
I don't know why Americans like what they like.
This actually doesn't make any sense.
- Look at me, I'm eating the other half.
- Or, I mean I guess it's like, it's high in sugar,
and there's protein, protein in the nuts.
Like it's carby, it's kind of the perfect like workout,
pre or post workout snack.
So maybe that's what we should be doing with them.
- When you go through the gates of hell,
this is what they make you eat every day,
and they don't give you any drink to wash it down.
- I'm still not a fan of peanut butter,
so I don't think I'm gonna be like making that
over the weekend.
- I won't be having it again.
I don't like to watch myself suffer.
- PB and J, cheers to that.
- I'm gonna go finish this bad boy.
To your health and mine.
