Do you have PB&J with your chili?

[BrewerGeorge]

I can tell you that Decatur, Mooresville, and Center Grove schools all did the PB and Honey thing with chili through the late 70's through 80's.

As stated clearly in this thread as well as my thread, it's just a peanut butter sandwich with chili. No jelly.

Peanut butter sandwich; no jelly. That is good stuff. I never think of it, but always had it as a kid in school.

I too am a Peanut Butter samich chili dipper. Not sure when I picked up that habit. Some of my relatives do the same some don't. Was at some small restaurant once and ordered chili and PB sandwich on the side. Waitress looked at me like I was crazy !

 

[Lebowski]

Guess I should of included PB, no J option as well.

Still haven't gone to the store! Oh well, going to warm me up a bowl of this chili goodness in just a bit.


Sorry @chezuki, I didn't see your thread last year. But these are very important matters! :P

My chili is normally a meal in itself and doesn't require a sandwich. That said, if I were going to eat a sandwich it wouldn't be PB (with or without J) it would be a grilled cheese.

Grilled cheese goes with the tomato soup not the chili.

Tomato soup is vile and nasty.

Goes with both in the churchmouse play book of good meals.

Not with a grilled cheese it's not.

 

[chezuki]

That's a very broad statement. From a can, I'd tend to agree, but I'm not much for any soup from a can.

That would destroy a perfectly good, crusty cheesy goodness sandwich for me. Yick.

I love it. Wife makes the worlds best GC sammys. Great on their own....better with matter soup and heavenly with her chili.

I grew up with PB and bacon sammiches. They go well with the chili also.

I'm one to eat cream of mushroom soup straight from the can. When I make chili. you can eat it with a fork. That's how the Evilwrench do. I don't give a flying anything what people think, there shall be beans. There shall also be dead cow, tomatoes, and other things. It all cooks low & slow, the seasonings blend and combine. They'll be even better tomorrow, yes they shall. We boil some angel hair, put the chili on a bit of it, sprinkle some cheese (usually monterey jack, never cheddar) and some hot sauce (sriracha is good) on top, then microwave it until the cheese melts. You want a PBJ? You're on your own. I won't object, but I can't imagine why you'd need one.

You eat the condensed soup right from the can? I eat chili, soup, ravioli, and tamales right out of the can, and my coworkers at work act like I'm a savage. They think I'm even more uncivilized because there is a microwave in the break room, but I see it as unnecessary. It doesn't make me enjoy it anymore, and it wastes more time in my break. Also my brothers were 8 and 10 years older than me, and they didn't like having to make me snacks after school, so my brother just taught me to eat everything out of the can so I wouldn't bother him about making me anything. I've never eaten a condensed soup like that though.

I'm thinking it's a regional thing. So don't go crazy yet. BTW, I'm also a transplant.
