Perfect PB+Js

Crunchy, smooth, grape, strawberry, crusts, no-crusts, uncrustable, star shaped, diagonal, vertical... how did we judge eachother in pre-school? PB+J preferences of course!

But in all seriousness, who does not like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches?  With the help of http://www.womenshealthmag.com/ , I set researched consumer preferences determined by taste tests and nutritional benefits in order to build the perfect PB+J. 

So let's break it down:

1) Bread

Breads & Cereals
"What hasn't been crammed into this loaf of bread? It's teeming with fiber, protein, and heart-protecting omega-3s."-Women's Health 

2) Peanut Butter

 Condiments
"Tastes like the stuff you remember eating as a kid, but has the addition of the omega-3s EPA and DHA, making it even more heart healthy. "-Women's Health

3) Jam

Condiments
"This jar is jammed with antioxidants from red grapes, cherries, acai, and pomegranates, but sweetened only by fruit juice, so it has a third less sugar than other brands" -Women's Health
Other ideas:

1st Row: Whole Wheat English Muffin + Maple Almond Butter+ Fig Jam
2nd Row: Rice Cake+ Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter+ Cherry Jam
3rd Row: Whole Wheat Tortilla+ Cinnamon Raisin Peanut Butter+ Black Raspberry Jam
4th Row: Whole Wheat Pita+ Pistachio Butter+ Lingonberry Jam
