Just peatnut butter. Or just Jam (Jelly). Never the twain shall meet. You Americans are nuts!  "Peatnut"? I'm assuming that's a UK thing, with all your bogs and whatnot This is a tough one for me, but I have to go with Peanut Butter & Jelly (jam, preserves). It's classic comfort food, taking me back to when I was a little kid and that's what we had for lunch every day in the summer. Even now, I have a PB&J 2-3 times per week as a change of pace from lunchmeat or soup for lunch. |

PB&J all the way. Preserves for me if we are being nitpicky.

If I have to have either it would be PB&J. But I likely haven't had one in 30 plus years. I don't like chocolate in the best of times. So no.

On toasted decent bread with a higher quality jelly than the purple corn syrup slime of our youths*, they can be pretty damn tasty.
And crunchy, of course.
*No offense if anyone's into that, I just didn't even like it then.

Which One: Peanut Butter and Jelly or Peanut Butter and Chocolate? What, no Peanut Butter & Honey? I don't think I've ever actually had Peanut Butter & Chocolate and I'm fairly certain that Nutella doesn't count
But yeah, my mom gets this Black Raspberry jelly from Whole Foods that tastes absolutely out of this world. Comes from a local guy too

Peanut butter and chocolate, but more in the “peanut butter and nutella sandwich” than in the Reese’s peanut butter cup tradition.

If by peanut butter and chocolate, you mean just in general, as in, e.g., peanut butter cups or other confections, then I'll say peanut butter and chocolate, or really, chocolate and pretty much any nut - as in Nutella, which is chocolate and hazelnut/filbert.
I like peanut butter and jelly, or rather jam, just fine, but it's hardly my favorite type of sandwich. I am American, but my parents were immigrants, so I didn't get fed a lot of typically American things when growing up, and I was always a bit mystified by the extreme lifelong love for certain food items, like peanut butter & jelly sandwiches and, esp., macaroni and cheese.

Chocolate Peanut Butter ice cream is one of my favorite things, so I will go with that. I do like peanut butter and jelly on English muffins occasionally, but peanut butter & chocolate is my go to dessert option.

Macaroni and cheese out of the blue box? Meh. Made as a dish in the South? Artery-clogging but so tasty. |

I love Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, not that I get to eat them a lot... so that!
Jelly here means something like Jell-O.

Haven't tried the Reese's Big Cup that has Reese's Pieces in it though, honestly just sounds like total caloric overkill

I like peanut butter but not peanut butter cookies or chocolate bars, etc. I think it goes well with bananas, though. And the PB +jam or +honey sandwich combo is fine with me too.
I seldom eat it now but went through a stage as a kid where it was almost all that I ate; and even into early adulthood it was a regular fall-back for me, if I didn't have anything else in the kitchen or didn't feel like taking the trouble to make anything better.

I just discovered Nutter Butter cookies/biscuits a couple of years ago. I like them because I don't eat them so fast and they last longer because of that. I tend to eat those Pirate cookies faster (and they used to be a bit better).  I'd like to give one to a squirrel, we have some around these last few years, and see what it would it would do with them.  I haven't seen the chocolate fudge covered Nutter Butters on sale so far. Maybe a good thing. |

Planters had this snack for a while called PB Crisps that were the exact same except that it had kind of a hollow shell where the peanut paste(?) was.  |
