    Why did you fry the grilled sandwich?

    The name is a take on the "grilled cheese" sandwich, which is also technically fried, not grilled.

  • Question

    Which one is better, chunky, smooth or simple peanut butter?

    4 Ways to Make a Jam Sandwich - wikiHow (34)

    Community Answer

    It is a matter of opinion but most people think that smooth is better because the chunky bits get stuck in your teeth and regular is hard to spread on the bread. You want to be able to spread it on easily.

      Tips

      • For a fun variation to the simple jam/preserves sandwich, use a cookie cutter to cut out a shape in the top slice. A heart is lovely for Valentine's Day. The jam will show through, adding an interesting dimension.

        Thanks
