What Is Your Favorite? Various Jam/jelly/preserves

[purple.n.black]

The ongoing debate. Mainly a strawberry vs grape debate, but I know some people out there prefer orange marmalade and some other wild things. Just vote on what you like most all around. Whether it is on toast, a PB&J sandwich, vote your true favorite.

Strawberry preserves for me. Nothing else compares on PB&J or on Ritz crackers.

Grape jelly FTW!

I like variety and could never commit to one flavor.

Nope, jelly has more of a gelatin-like texture and i think jam has has chopped pieces of fruit.

Grape Jelly, baby, the classic. Love me some PBJ with grape.

[flaccopoe]

Dude, that stuff is gross.

Crunchy Peter Pan and any kind of berry preserve (no marmalade).

Or skip the PB and give me a Thomas' English Muffin with a touch of butter and a preserve.

I agree with everything you just said. In fact I had the latter earlier today. The goober mixed stuff is just awful though! Its a bad ration and the peanut butter tasted like peanut chalk!

[George70]

I enjoy strawberry preserves, especially with peanut butter on wheat bread.

[Moderator 2]

Wegmans has an Organic raspberry something that is to die for--good with peanut butter, drizzled on vanilla ice cream or as a cheese cake topping.

I always had a feeling that you had issues with commitment.

I'm torn between grape and strawberry jelly, both are delicious. Uh.... what the hell, I'll go with Strawberry.

I like Black Raspberry with crunchy natural or organic Peanut Butter.
Here's my case for organic PB, it's actually the closest you can get to actual peanuts and the taste is far superior to the fake stuff, like Jiff or whatever is out there.
It's not as sweet.
It's peanuts, salt and whatever oil they use to bind it, and that's all.
The thing a lot of people don't realize, is that you actually have to stir it, mix it up and throw it in the fridge, it's not rocket science, and I know some people think effort sucks, but it's well worth it.
Concord grape is good too, but are you really getting concord grapes?
If you've ever had a Concord grape, you'll know the difference.
Concord grapes are amazing.
PB&J is best served grilled, like a grilled cheese, or toasted.
Nutella, is also great with Peanut Butter. If you don't know what it is, it's a hazelnut spread that resembles chocolate.
I'm a chocolate and peanut butter freak.
That's one of the world's best pairings.

There's a place that my Grandmother used to take me as a child in York,PA. I think called Kitchen Kettle, and they make jams and jellies out of anything you can think of, well, not everything, but a lot.
Apple jams and jellies are good, apple spice or pumpkin spice, maybe with some brie, apple slices and turkey, maybe some bacon, on a baguette, that's a good time too.

I gotta stop thinking about food.

I'm going to stay away from grape, cherry, etc, it'll get all sticky. I'll stick with KY.

Jelly is more of a plastic lol, we do it right with the jam.

ED Smiths Wildberry is the shiznit!(raspberry, blueberry and blackberry)

[flynismo]

We can only choose one?? Damn.Well, strawberry jam is most versatile, but when you're in the mood for it, nothing can touch orange marmalade ... but its not an everyday spead.And then there is blackberry jam, which I like much more than grape jelly ... Hmm, final answer: orange marmalade.

It tastes more like the original fruit, with nice pieces, sweet, and the seeds
