Honey and PB tastes bad...real bad.

Its like putting mayo AND ranch on a sandwich
 
The kids aren't even eating the frozen peanut butter monstrosity, they're just licking the bloody sprinkles off it to humor her.

Yup. All I need to know.

She looks like someone from Oakville with a show on HGTV.

also note how the parchment paper almost stuck to the peanut butter, kids love the taste of paper stuck to sticky things.

and those flowers sitting around, those are just asking to get knocked over sitting in the middle of the counter

Why is she holding a glass of water (I guess?) at the beginning? Is that to make her more relate-able? And did she use a whole jar of peanut butter for about 3-4 slices?

Wasteful and more time consuming? I think I can qualify as a "sandwich master" on food network.

So the solution to shitty tissue paper bread is to meticulously plan ahead a day before you feel like eating a peanut butter sandwich with some really convoluted solution that involves freezing huge slabs of peanut butter?

Why not just... you know... buy better bread?

lol at bread tearing being a problem. Or time spent. Neither of those are a friggin problem.

Frozen peanut butter doesn't sound bad, though. It's good in chocolates, why not standalone/on a sandwich.

Seriously. This is a parody, right?
No such people really exist, right? Right?
There's a lot of homemakers and stay-at-home-parents with nothing to do all day but try out recipes and shit.

New parents who don't know the rigors of making school lunches.

Listen, the peanut butter warms up... relatively quickly.

And yes, there might be some internal condensation or separation of oils within the peanut butter due to the freezing process.

But it's worth it for the looks of confusion when you open your freezer to make a PB&J sandwich and all the other moms start trying to hide your sleeping pills.

I am a firm believer in the universe's tendency towards the path of least resistance.

But it seems stupidity is a strong force. I mean, as its been said, WHY would you put that much more work and effort into such a straightforward task? Are spreading the PB with hedge clippers?

The government assistance peanut butter would demolish bread lol. I hated spreading that shit as a kid. Either spend time microwaving the peanut butter (on a plate mind you, the container had foil in it) or mangle your bread. Those were the choices.

Fuck the haters. She's a total babe and I'm totally stealing this idea.

Also what's with the "white people" comments? I feel like if it were the other way around this thread would be a graveyard.
 
Ive frozen peanut butter thats been spread out for candy bars (im a pastry chef) and it doesn't freeze well. There is too much oil in peanuts for the PB to be pliable so, yeah, you can roll it and freeze it but peeling it off that parchment will be a bitch because it comes to temp too fast and gets sticky. If you add powdered sugar to the peanut butter before you roll it, it helps with making the peanut butter more pliable.

But honestly, all this effort for a sandwich is fucking ridiculous.

Mad about white people comments, makes unnecessary remark about her appearance.

Or buy decent bread that doesn't shred like fucking Kleenex when it touches any kitchen implement.

Jesus goddamn Christ, lady.....
 
wt actual f.

properly emulsified / mixed peanut butter will never rip untoasted bread while spreading - especially the cheap sugar-filled kind she was clearly using in that video.

also, why is she so annoying?

[she's really annoying]
 
It sounds like some of you are just super jealous that other people are better at pb&j sandwiches than you. It reminds me of this quote:

"With a bit of luck, his life was ruined forever. Always thinking that just behind some narrow door in all of his favorite bars, men in red woolen shirts are getting incredible kicks from things he’ll never know."

I feel like she would've sold me on this if the video started off with a black and white clip of bread ripping up when the peanut butter is spread.
 
Food Network is desperate to try and keep these "clever" ideas rolling out to keep mind share since they've declined and are clinging to their 85 reality shows to keep them afloat before people get bored and move on to the next one.

This is fucking dumb, it's a peanut butter sandwich, you spread the peanut butter on two slices of bread, slap them together and eat them.

This is a waste of time, resources, energy and is just fucking dumb.
