The Triple PB&J Sandwich

It's not like we're fermenting fungus to the peak of briney saltiness and slathering that on bread, like some sort of fevered nightmare, a testament to the darkest most depraved fantasies of humanity. That would be repulsive and a good reason to nuke a culture from our collective memories, to safeguard the welfare of future generations.
It's just sweet, smokey, chewy, gooey, rich peanut butter.

I'm shocked at the fact that everyone is bashing the crunchy peanut butter when he's using wheat bread on a PBJ. Seriously. Only one person mentioned it?!?!
This is the Peanut Butter I used, not sure how you are seeing green, there are chunks of Peanuts in there that may be reflecting, but that is just what Chunky Peanut Butter looks like.
Maybe it's because I use this...

There's nothing wrong with a quality wheat bread.
That looks like some trashy $1.99 store brand loaf of bread, though, the one that comes in the brown tinted bag and stinks sort of like old socks.

I would make double decker PB&J sandwiches as a kid a bunch 
The key is to not go too heavy with the peanut butter.

White bread is a culinary abortion and anyone who prefers it over practically every other variety of bread for practically every purpose possible is a terrible person.

Saying there's nothing wrong with using wheat bread on PBJ is like saying there's nothing wrong with using marmalade as the "jelly". It's heretical.
I'm a terrible person.

Crunchy PB?
so you paid for peanut butter but got swindled and got whole peanuts thrown in there? I'd ask for my money back OP

you racist son of a pumpernickel
That's what I did though, guess I didn't take enough pictures. Like I said before, it is two layers of Jelly, and two layers of Peanut Butter, on 3 slices of Bread.
Well I'm sure most of us are for a variety of reasons, but at least I don't eat white bread : P
For clarity, stuff like potato bread is good stuff, speaking strictly of stuff like Wonder Bread and its ilk.
Sure, and if you use white bread it's ok even if it's the $1.99 store brand that you can roll up into a little mush ball, hardly thicker than two stacks of puffed up toilet paper, and tastes like stale Elmer's Glue (or two stacks of puffed up toilet paper) when you eat it
*snorts*
Try some quality sweet wheat bread, like Dave's Killer Bread.
Obviously can't please everyone, but this is the bread I used.
I knew it.
*smug*
I wouldn't discipline a dog with a slice of Sara Lee's cancer loaf, now with extra gag.

I thought I was the only person who stuffed Doritos inside their peanut butter sandwiches.
...soul mates?
Give me french bread or potato bread any day, but white bread tastes fine.
I know wheat is healthier and whatnot but it's like, when you have white bread as an option, I can't deny it. Especially when using it for Grilled Cheese/Toast.

Sourdough Grilled Cheese is the GOAT. That's just science.

That's the nastiest peanut butter I've ever seen.
Sourdough is sourdough.
"White bread"–as in absent any other applicable descriptors, i.e. French, sourdough, potato, etc.– is a textureless, nutritionless, colorless, bread-shaped sponge. Not talking about breads that just happen to be white, here.
Now the thing I'm most concerned with here is the lack of talk about toasting. That bread looks untoasted and I can't think of a reason to not toast bread for a pb&j. everything spreads better when it's warmer, the bread is crunchier. I never even consider not toasting
Off the person who suggested peanut butter and honey: sometimes for a dessert-type thing or a decadent breakfast, put a nice fruit syrup on a piece of peanut butter toast. I've been spoiled lately with a couple jars of homemade pomegranate syrup from a friend and it's the greatest thing
superfl...so you were just making normal peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. That's-- it's not the same thing
I mean you can argue for or against the necessity of third slice of bread, but you were not making the same thing as op because the entire point of his was that it had multiple layers. You're just asserting that you have made peanut butter and jelly sandwiches before

Hmmm, so not white bread per se. I mean if you were to condemn white bread and say you don't eat it, but, you eat pizza made from enriched flour (which almost all pizza places, national or not, use), that would be silly.

I actually made these while going through basic training over 10 years ago.
Gave me a ton of energy for the day.

I toast 2 slices every so often, this Peanut Butter was fresh, so it would be all over the place if I toasted the bread. As the Peanut Butter cools in the fridge over time, it makes more sense to toast the bread to loosen it up a bit.

Nope. Layer of peanut butter and a layer of jelly on each slice. 3rd slice of bread is unnecessary.
Should have included a "But" at the start of that, I suppose.
Man you must have some fucked up taste buds if white bread sparks this reaction from you
My man. I brought peanut butter and honey sandwiches to work for three years straight.
...And now I no longer eat bread. I miss my PB&H. And PB&J, too.

This works far better if you toast the middle slice of bread. Gives much-needed texture to what is otherwise a goo sandwhich on very soft bread.

Those are called peanuts.
Or, you know, hyperbole.
But seriously, for me "white bread" is shit like Wonder Bread, the sort of bread that has no other features that could be used to describe it. It's white. It's bread. That's all there is to it.
It does not taste unpleasant, but it's the pinnacle of homogenized and over-processed baked goods. I've never had bread that didn't offer *something* over that stuff.
Oh wow...
Dude. You used as much honey as you used jelly. That's pretty gross.

Wow. There is too much stuff going on in this picture.

This is a disappointing sandwich. All you've done is add another slice of bread. The examples of marshmallow, banana, chocolate, fruit, etc. on the back of the third slice are true innovations.
When I was a kid, the only store-bought bread my hippie mother would allow me to eat was Roman Meal. I would have sworn it had huge undigestible chunks of grain/cardboard in it. I look at it now and it's essentially white bread with brown food coloring.
