[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]My mom added butter to PB&J sandwiches. She would butter the bread, then add a layer of peanut butter on top of the butter, then add the jelly. I never realized it was strange until I was in late elementary school and my friends started to comment on it - and they all loved my mom's PB&Js! It was actually quite tasty. [/quote] My parents still do this. They claim the butter "seals" the bread so that the jelly won't run into the bread or make it mushy. I watched them do it a year ago as they packed their lunch for a road trip and was kind of horrified, yet it made me wonder if they had done it all along and I never knew. School lunch was a slice of white bread, slice of bologna (from the Oscar Meyer tub, red rind pulled off) and mustard. Every day. We ate that chipped ham barbecue a lot living in Northeast Ohio. I'm about to make the cranberry jello mold my grandmother always made for Thanksgiving or Christmas, whichever holiday we were there for. Problem is, the [b]recipe calls for sliced strawberries in heavy syrup, which aren't made anymore (remember the spinach type boxes of frozen everything, 10 oz or so?). So it never really comes out right. [/b][/quote] Is it true? No more frozen strawberries in syrup? I used to love eating those with cereal. I haven't looked for it in the freezer section but I know exactly what it looks like in the little white box. We had a thanksgiving jello mold thing that featured these strawberries and canned pineapple. No idea they were made anymore! [/quote][/quote] When I was growing up the frozen strawberries in syrup dumped over a slice of grocery store angel food cake was a common dessert.[/quote] They still make those frozen strawberries in heavy syrup! I've bought them at both Harris Teeter and Giant.[/quote]
