Since it's first appearance in a 1901 Boston Cooking School Magazine of Culinary Science and Domestic Economics , peanut butter and jelly has become an American tradition. It gained popularity during wartime, as both peanut butter and jelly were military menu rations.
April 2 is National Peanut Butter & Jelly day and I'd like to celebrate with a peanut butter and jelly bar at a nice local park. 😋 I will provide a variety of fixings for you to make yourself some tasty treats so bring your appetite! There will be a game or two and some prizes.
