We only had grape jelly in the house growing up. I only buy strawberry now.

Our absolute favorite is the Boysenberry Preserves from Knotts Berry Farm.

Sooooooo yummy!

But we can never find it and don't plan on going back to that park anytime soon, so we settle for raspberry preserves.

To me, jelly is to gel-like, and DH hates the seeds that come in jam. So a preserve has the thicker jam consistency, but without the seeds. The whole family is happy!

One son ONLY likes grape.

The rest of us will eat grape or strawberry (actually I will eat almost any flavor) but the rest of us prefer strawberry.

Just peanut butter here. I'm a boring person.

But I remember every day in preschool, my best friend used to bring a peanut butter and fluff sandwich on white - which I thought was disgusting - as I had my peanut butter on whole wheat (I told you I was boring - even in preschool!).

One grape, one raspberry, one strawberry. I prefer anything but grape! I buy a lot of jelly!

My mother always made pbj with peach preserves. I still prefer that to this day. I must have been in my late teens before I ever had pbj with grape jelly. Not a big fan of it. Loooove the peach preserves.

The best ever is boysenberry. To the poster from WA, Smuckers is making boysenberry jam now.

I loooooove raspberry jam even though I grew up eating grape and strawberry. I told some coworkers about my obsession and now it's their fave, too! One of my coworkers makes homemade jam and promised me some for Christmas, yum yum!

My DD7 prefers peanut butter and honey. That is her favorite. She will eat grape or strawberry, but honey is always her first option.

I like PB hold the J. Never been a fan of Jelly.

 

[MickeySP]

Has to be Grape - Welch's Grape none of that generic junk. Also has to be on fresh white bread with a chilled glass of milk - HEAVEN!!!!!!!

We are also a PB&Fluff family. Growing up we always had PB & Bacon sandwiches or PB& sliced banana, it's all about the PB!!!

What flavor of jelly do you use?

We always go for grape. Tried strawberry once, but I didn't like it much (love it on toast, just not with peanut butter).

We used to use grape, but it just got too sweet for us. DS (14) is really the only one who eats PBJ and he prefers an organic strawberry preserve we found.

Although, occasionally I just have to have a PJB with Smuckers grape jelly and a tall glass of cold milk as my comfort food

I had a friend growing up who always requested "peanut butter and jelly without the jelly!"

We use strawberry and peach, as they are the freezer jams we make every year. But I also keep grape around, as some of DS's friends only like grape.

When I was a little kid I used to ask for peanut butter and jelly without the peanut butter.

I prefer grape on PB&J now, or apple, but apple is really hard to find out here. I love strawberry and plum preserves on toast and biscuits though. My sis in law sent me some homemade strawberry and I have had that on a few PB&J's. It was pretty tasty!
