Do you still eat PB&J's?

Itā€™s been 7 long years that I was forced to give up my pb&jā€™s due to my kids anaphylactic peanut allergy that sent us to the emergency room when he was 2 years old. Any small trace amount of peanut can be fatal for him. :cry::persevere:

Load up the peanut butter.

Good mother. In 9 years, you can send your kiddo off to college and have guilty pleasures maybe in a park so no peanut oil aerosol at home.

Here is more than most folks want to know about Peanut allergy and allergens. What is important is awareness of cross allergens and the hope that 20% of peanut allergy persons eventually do outgrow it. Though it is not safe to self test with provocative experiments outside of a clinical environment e.g., where epinephrine can be administered and worst case scenario - intubation is possible.

Itā€™s the classic snack!
I really feel sorry for those with a nut allergy.

As a busy parent attending track meets and other all-day sporting events, I pack myself a sack lunch/dinner of pb&j often. Itā€™s delicious and is a great alternative to eating fast food!

Iā€™ve been more into PB&P lately - peanut butter and pickle - specifically, some good garlic dill pickles.

Not as often as I used to, but itā€™s still a favorite sandwich for me.

I donā€™t.
Not because I dislike them, really, but because I donā€™t think of them - so I donā€™t have any PB or J on hand if I do get a yen. :woman_shrugging:

Oh hell yeah. But I like changing it up. One of the best is rye toast and open faced PBJā€¦ :yum:

Crunchy - or extra crunchy - only.
Typically, tho, itā€™s usually just 1 slice of white bread and some peanut butter - happens about 2 a.m.ishā€¦ when I canā€™t sleep, if I eat that, it usually helps.
Once in a while I eat an actual pbjā€¦ cut diagonally, of course, and with plain Layā€™s potato chips, of course.
Yumā€¦ hmmmā€¦ that may be dinner tonite! Thanx, woot!

PB&J, or with honey. Sometimes Iā€™ll toast the bread (not white bread, blech!)

I love how you misspelt ā€œpeanut butter and honeyā€ like you were some insane monkey that didnā€™t know any betterā€¦
