Inspired by yesterday’s discussion on whether or not a hotdog is a sandwich, I’ve decided to wade into the waters of filled-bread food controversy. I am of the contention that jelly belongs on top of the peanut butter. What say you, Lemmings?

As an Australian I’d like to say that jelly doesn’t go in sandwiches or anywhere near peanut butter. Jelly is a dessert food. Some people like it with ice cream or cake or pudding. It doesn’t go with savoury lunch foods.
I think this is something that gets lost in translation sometimes between different English dialects
When you say "jelly"are you referring to a fruit preserve similar to jam that gets it’s gelatinous qualities from pectin
Or are you referring to a gelatin-based dessert like Jello?
When most Americans talk about peanut butter & jelly, we’re talking about the former.
We don’t have the word “jello” in Australian English, so I’m not sure what you’re asking.
