Preserves are any fruits mixed with sugar to make a spread.
Conserves are the same but have chunks of fruit in them.

Only in the US. You go into a store here and ask for jelly they'll give you a small rectangular packet of gelatin that you drop into boiling water, leave in the fridge for a few hours and then enjoy with ice cream or whatever.

Here on this side of the world jam is what you spread on your bread, toast, waffles, whatever. So what do you call what we call jelly then? The dessert?

Anyway, yeah but what the bleep is that hellhound thing then???

My mother was a chef, she calls seedless jam jelly, I went to catering college they called seedless jam jelly there too. I worked in a supermarket they were called jams & jellys there too.

It is possible for more than one thing to have the same name. I'm assuming you've never filled up a chip pan with Castrol GTX because you were confused by the word oil being used for several things.

My mother & the supermarket and the tutor at the collage were English btw.

A metaphor

And the woman!

The mystery is solved! They never DID discover why my house burned down that time! Thanks, Urban! (Makes note: Castrol GTX NOT for cooking chips. Makes a second note: SPRY Crisp'n'Dry NOT for engine of car...)

I love both, but creamy is better for sandwiches, and since I eat PBJs a lot then I'll go with creamy. But if I'm eating it straight out of the jar, then crunchy all the way.

Peanuts are legumes.

British weirdness.

Crunchy.

:laughing:

What the hell is that?

A metaphor

But what is the actual physical thing I'm looking at?

I think this one falls firmly into the "you tell me and we'll both know" column


*edited to add: I did a google images search for bad art

Heh. I'm not actually sure I'd even call it bad, though some sort of context would help me.

He's not in on the photo. It's just a random, strange photo from the internet. That's the context. What he's using it for, though, that's something he can answer.

Anyway, I don't like peanut butter. I thought I would come in here to declare that there are those of us in the world that don't eat it. I need to be a voice to my minority group. Please don't chastise me.

I mean....oh, ok

I understand. The comment you were replying to was just me musing about the nature of "bad art".

Poo you.

I'd rather have the bestial sodomite ouroboros in my home than Starry Night to be honest. You will never convert me to your creamy heresy.

I was hoping it wouldn't have to come to this. ..

Was this the pic you were posting? Cause ht pic didn't load and when I opened it in another tab it said page not found and I got this image...

I prefer crunchy, but this thread reminds me of one of my favorite standup bits:


Brian Regan- Peanut Butter & Jelly [Live] - YouTube

Yes, but the image loads for me. Hmmm


*edited to add: the hosting site might not allow hotlinking, replaced the image in my previous post

That's not the pic I got. Mine was a dead Uncle Sam with a bullet hole in his chest with doctors trying to resuscitate him with defibrillator paddles.

So the Safeway across the street was having a blowout sale on PB, I could've bought 50 jars of crunchy (if I wanted to ick myself out I guess), but after an EXHAUSTIVE search I managed to get the last creamy. I win. :yeah:

I ****ing hate the word creamy

I hate it too. It sounds so nasty. I'm glad the label on my PB says "smooth".

Ok, howzabout "unspoiled by a million goddamn chunks of virulent doom"

Crunchy peanut butter is great, though.

Crunchy is losing? WTF is wrong with you people.

I'd prefer death

.

I love Fred and forgive him for being dropped on his head as a baby

Sounds just a wee bit extreme Paul. Death by crunchy peanut butter what a way to go.

Smeenus probably only eats plain oatmeal and vanilla ice cream too.

Exactly. I'd hope I'd find a less unpleasant end, like chugging drano while being set on fire

Vanilla ice cream is pretty good but not on oatmeal.

My fave is caramel.

you say that like crunchy PB is exciting.

hell no it isn't!

It's just you masochists that want to destroy the roofs of your mouth that enjoy it.

Howzabout "unspoiled by the emissions of seven overweight men with festering boils"?
