I’ll have to make myself a peanut butter and honey sandwich. My mom used to substitute whenever we ran out of jam, it’s pretty good.

Mmm... I’ll have to try that, sounds delicious. Back in Miami, my mom used to make “fluffernutter” sandwiches. It was pretty popular, just peanut butter and marshmallow fluff on bread.

I'm partial to peanut butter, mayo & banana sammiches. Preferably using the heel of the loaf.

Seriously?? That sounds like all my nightmares in one sandwich. I hate the end pieces of bread (too hard and stale tasting even when fresh), bananas (never have, never will), and only like Japanese Mayo. I can’t imaging how that would taste with some peanut butter.

Once you try it, you'll never go back. Everybody says the same thing until they actually try it. (The heel is just the same as the rest of the crust on the slice off bread. When a loaf doesn't last but a day in a household of 5 it not any staler than the last regular slice of bread. You can use regular slices but I usually only make a half sandwich so the heel folds nicely and doesn't come apart in your hands. Kind of like making it in a hotdog bun which can also be used!

I’ll think about trying it if I’m ever feeling adventurous. For the most part I stick to nutella, peanut butter and honey, and plain old butter.
