I wasn’t. I knew you could still buy it. I don’t know why anyone would. ETA, man, it has increased in price. ---

> [@FoieGrasIsEvil](#): > > Smuckers “Uncrustables” frozen PBJ…sorta snadwhiches? These are great for that toddler stage where they want to do it themselves but they don’t have the coordination to use a spoon or fork without a major mess. Especially good for lunch. They didn’t have these when my kids were little. They also didn’t have applesauce and yogurt in pouches that could be sucked from. ---

My littlest boy lived on these last summer. He is 21 and worked the summer on a landscape crew. Hard and hot work. He would grab 4 or 5 out of the freezer when he left in the morning and by lunch they were good to go. Easy energy and he said he never got tired of them. ---

The lil’wrekker likes the uncrustables and hot pockets. They’re probably her favorite foods. Oh, except for Taco bell. I buy them for her dorm fridge. ---

> [@Chronos](#): > > Agreed that peanut butter and mayo makes no sense whatsoever. If nothing else, they’re both fats. Fat and sugar, like PBJ, makes sense. Fat and fat doesn’t. Yeah, I never quite understood the peanut butter and mayo thing people do. For “weird” peanut butter sandwiches, I like peanut butter and pickles, especially spicy pickles. It’s a nice mix of sweet, salty, hot, sour that works really well for me. With PB & mayo, I suppose maybe the acidity of the mayo give the sandwich a similar type of zing, but I’ve never really enjoyed it because it also adds, as you say, unnecessary oiliness. ---

My dad claimed his favorite sandwich was peanut butter, pickles and mayo. I never saw him eat one, but I think that was out of respect for the tender sensibilities of everyone else in the family, as we found the idea horrifying. ---
