PB&J on rye bread -- y/n?

[Anonymous]

PB&J needs a fluffy white bread like Wonder

This is the only bread we ate when I was a kid and we ate PB&J on it daily. For years. And I hated it and still do. So I vote no.

My kids eat PB&J on whole wheat. But my daughter loves rye bread - go figure - so if she wanted to use that I guess I would. It’s never occurred to her however.

I love sourdough and rye, but hate the sweetness and gumminess of peanut butter and jam. I don't think it would work, OP, but if YOU like it, eat it! I love Scottish scones with cheddar, so...

Yes, but only with unsweetened peanut butter and a less sweet jam like sour cherry or marmalade.

However, I like PB&J a lot so I'm very flexible in how it's implemented. My favourite is probably sweet peanut butter and strawberry jam on homemade challah but that's not exactly healthy.

No. No way. Gross!!

I'd say white bread for a PBJ, but a soft wheat could be fine. Nothing fancy.

+1 to all of this

Not for a PB&J. But rye's perfect for peanut butter and pickles!

Why would one do that to a perfectly good piece of rye bread ?

Yuck.

I love rye bread, but not for a PB&J.

Sourdough, white, whole wheat, pretty much anything other than rye.

[Anonymous]

No sourdough and no rye for PB&J. Anything else goes. But there will be people who like it on rye, there's always at least one who marches to a different beat.

Oh hellllll no.

Brioche or Hawiian wheat around here.

No. I love PB&J and I love rye but would not like them together.

I like PB&J on white bread.

I would not choose it, but if it was that or going hungry I could handle it. If someone else likes it, good for them. I would prefer a cheese or roast beef or turkey sandwich if I had to have something on rye. I prefer wheat bread for pbjs

I use rye for all other sandwiches:

- pastrami
- ruben
- turkey
- ham
- grilled cheese
- roasted vegetables
- toast with butter

Just not peanut butter and jelly

OP again. The only other bread available in the house were everything bagels.

So I guess the question should really be, what's worse, PB&J on marble rye or PB&J on an everything bagel?

If you pick everything bagel, does it matter if it's toasted or not?
