    Oh! is the long incubation period why I wasn't allowed to give blood for like 20 years because I happened to be in the UK in the 90s?

    Re: my weird local brain food (henh)

    This was back in the 80s so idk if ppl knew about it then, but yea they stopped allowing ppl to buy the calf brains. I thought they hadn't conclusively found that eading brains would for sure do that though? But outlawed it for cows to be safer. That's what I read a while back anyway. Tho I also read about the squirrel thing in Kentucky so, idk, everything I read seems to conflict. At any rate I'm still alive at least, but I probably wouldn't recommend it. Still was delicious though! The texture was super weird, haha

    Well eating brains won't do it if they're not infected, but if an animal has any prions lurking in it, the brain and spinal cord is where most of them will be hanging out.

    Kuru is transmitted among cannibals primarily by ingestion of human brains, for example.

    budgie not actually a bird

    I was making a sandwich and noticed that the pack of bread had a 'recipe' for how to make a pb&j. First I thought this was funny because, really, how to make a pb&j? Then I actually read it and it said to put peanut butter on one slice and jam on the other. I've always made them by putting peanut butter on both slices and then jam on top of one.

    So, how do you make a pb&j? And are you a strange person like my dad who butters the bread first?

    strictly quadrilateral alive, alive, alive!

    i put peanut butter on one slice and jam on the other, but if I am making a peanut butter and honey sandwich, i will put peanut butter on both sides and then honey on one of them, because i don't like the texture of honey directly on bread.

    i make pb n j by putting jam on one side and on the other side i put more jam, put them together and then put the peanut butter back in the cabinet cause its gross.

    I do not like jam or peanut butter so I don't make pb&j sandwiches

    it sort of sucks though 'cause I genuinely like the taste of some jams but I hate hate hate hate hate sticky foods. and jam and peanut butter? sticky. honey's right up there too. it's horrible.

    @chaoticArbiter so my mom buys this peanut butter powder from the store, that she likes to sprinkle on things. I'm imagining some kind of fruit streusel bread/toast with pb powder on top as a non sticky alternative, if you ever get a craving for the taste. Everyone deserves the joy of pb&j flavors.

    Can confirm, both bread slices need the protective layer if honey is involved.

    But here's a question: has anyone tried any of the not-peanut butters with jelly or honey (and bananas)? I'm suddenly thinking of nutella with honey and banana because chocolate and banana work well together.

    Nutella's a bit too sweet for me, but both almond butter and cashew butter are magical with honey and/or bananas. Cashew butter tends to be really dry though.

    almond butter and jam is very spiritually similar to pbj, just a different nut flavor
    I've had some jams that are more like a sweet fruit jello/sauce, would that be any different?

    huh, I didn't even know peanut butter powder was a thing, but that sounds like it would work, thanks!!

    depends how similar it is to jello or sauce texture as opposed to sticky....and even then, it'd have to be pretty well guaranteed to stay in the sandwich. a big issue for me with like, jam and stuff, is that it likes to ooze out of the sandwich. and for some reason I just can't deal with having food sauces/sticky foods/slimy things on my hands? it's Bad and makes me very, very upset. sticky's definitely the worst of them all, but anything slimy or slippery or sauce-like is also Nope.

    I assume one could make powdered peanut butter by taking regular peanut butter (or crushing peanuts) and pressing out the oil?

    ... But I like the crunchy from the honey. Then again, I also like crunchy peanut butter.

    Does anyone else need to have a cold drink of some sort with a hot drink? Because I can't do hot drink without cold, though I can do cold without hot.

    i put penut butter on both sides and jam in the middle because i was told it keeps the bread from becomimg soggy and helps minimize jam leakage

    I do pb on one slice and jam on the other- you get too much peanut butter on your tongue and not enough jam otherwise
