    I buy squeeze jelly because the campus-affiliated market that I have a meal plan for only sells jelly in squeeze bottles. Though it’s nice how it saves a spoon, it’s a bit of a pain to operate. Especially the grape flavor.

        I guess I’ve always considered it poor form to let ingredient containers mix at all. The knife is already covered in peanut butter, so putting it in the jelly container would get a bit of peanut butter on the jelly, and that’s no good for some reason.

        Also because I find it way easier to scoop jelly with a spoon than a knife.

            Why did the knife go in the pb first? It goes in the jelly, then gets washed off in 2 seconds in the sink, then goes in the pb.

            I have not yet achieved the level of skill with peanut butter required to get all of it off the knife. Most, yes, but there’s still a plainly visible amount left.

                But then I’m gonna get peanut butter on the bread I’m going to put jelly on. What if the spoon gets contaminated, and then I put it back in the jar for the next person?

                …Wait nevermind, that’s not a problem, I use a squeeze bottle.

                    No, no, just as a kid when multiple of us would be making PBJs in sequence. Whoever’s last gets to lick the spoon before it goes in the sink.
