The big PBJ Question

Here is another proverbial 'fork in the road' life often brings and I am asking for your help in choosing.

First; do you put butter on your peanut butter and jelly sandwich? If not...go no further as this question is not applicable to you.

If you do, do you put the butter on one slice of bread, then peanut butter on the other slice and finally, the jelly in the middle? Of course you realize this will cause the jelly to ooze out the sides of the sandwich as you eat it.  But then again, lots of folks consider licking the ooze up a big part of the fun right?  Kind of like controlling a melting ice cream cone.

Note excellent ooze factor.

Or, do you prefer putting the butter on one slice and spreading peanut butter right over the top of that?  This leaves you a bare slice for your jelly and the slice absorbs much of it thereby reducing the ooze factor considerably...unless of course you just keep loading it up with jelly so the bread can no longer absorb the excess. Then you have your ooze factor plus a jelly-impregnated slice right?

So, which do you prefer?

(I know, I know...we are deeply immersed in a presidential political cycle so who has time for this trivia right?  But hey, you gotta' 'preserve' your energy so you can make intelligent decisions and what better way to do it than with oozing preserves from a PBJ?!)

Imperative that you butter both sides, then peanut butter and jelly on one side, then put them together. Yum!
