National Peanut Butter & Jelly Day Ok, we have a generous amount of peanut butter… now what? Click through the gallery for three ways to assemble a PB&J. (Craig Chambers)
National Peanut Butter & Jelly Day Technique number one is the peanut butter on one slice of bread and jelly on the other.
This is a quick and easy way to complete your PB&J masterpiece. However, I find it challenging when you try and eat it. Jelly is always coming out of the bottom of the sandwich, and the peanut butter is more likely to get stuck on the roof of your mouth.

National Peanut Butter & Jelly Day Technique number two involves putting the jelly directly on the peanut butter. I find that this allows the two to blend slightly with less jelly leakage and the peanut butter is less likely to stick. (Craig Chambers)
National Peanut Butter & Jelly Day Technique number three, or I call it Expert level, is basically the same steps as technique two but with a blending step. Simply stir the two together with your knife. Using this technique, there is almost no jelly leakage, and as for the roof of your mouth… clean as a whistle. (Craig Chambers)
