Preference: Strawberry vs grape

Anonymous
My husband and I discovered something about each other this weekend that was shocking... As background, he greatly prefers grape jelly and I prefer strawberry. We were willing to overlook this when we married, and have made it work thus far. I am even willing to raise our children in the cult of grape for family unity. However, last night we were discussing the merits of both flavors, and it turns out that my husband thinks that he is in the majority--that most people prefer grape! I, of course, being a right-thinking American, know that this is not right. Most people, like me, prefer strawberry.

Please help us solve this argument, as I will be sharing the results of this very unscientific survey with him... Which do you prefer? Grape or strawberry? TIA!

Jersey raised girl here with Italian family
Always had grape jelly
Friends always made pb and j with it
Sometimes we'd have strawberry on toast in diners, but grape was the standard in everyone's cupboard

Its not that simple....if I was eating the actual fruit I prefer grape, I also think grapes last longer so buy them more.
Grape yogurt though? not so much.
So it depends what food it is.

Red fruits all the way! Strawberry, cherry, and raspberry jam are all superior to grape. Grape does have it's place on a PBJ as an occasional alternative. Here's something truly horrifying: my husband's family supports putting grape jelly on omelets.

Strawberries. Fresh or jellied.
I couldn't eat a PB and GJ if I had to.

Strawberry, hands down.

Now I'll need to ask dh this question when he gets home...

Prefer grapes if we're talking raw.

Strawberry flavor.

Oh, most definitely strawberry! And preferably the low sugar kind.

I remember seeing kids in elementary school with grape jelly on their pb and j sandwiches, but they were never the kind of kids that were in the better reading groups, iykwim.

You might want to push back a little on having strawberry for the kids. You do want them to get off to a good start, don't you?

Grape for PB&J but Strawberry for literally everything else.
