July 12, 2025: The Nutty Constant

My life-long obsession.

Friends who know me well could probably guess. High school meant two or three daily. By college, the habit grew so relentless a dorm friend called it "the only constant in life.” I took that as a compliment.

Reliable. Satisfying. Packed with protein and always ready…

The peanut butter sandwich.

Most days, I keep it classic and plain: soft bread with JIF, creamy never crunchy. When I feel dangerous, I might smear in some jelly.

I’ve devoured more PB sandwiches than anything else, and no other food comes close.

I read the average American kid eats around 1,500 PB&J's before finishing high school, and people consume about 3,000 total in a lifetime.

Amateurs. I’ve easily demolished those numbers.

Yep, just give me a peanut butter sandwich and a glass of sweet tea, and I’m happy.

Throw in some Doritos and it’s a party.
