I'll give it a try sometime.

Try this yourself sometime:

Hot toast immediately slathered with peanut butter, then thin slice of swiss
cheese immediately on top of that. Great snack if you like the ingredients.

I used to like peanut butter and cheese sandwiches. But for some reason I
can not stomach peanut butter on toast. Oh it tastes fine. It just comes
right back up after I eat it. I think it is the warm peanut butter or
something. I can eat toast just fine.

I don't much care for melty peanut butter either... I'll eat it but
it's not a preference. Try peanut butter spread on chocolate covered
graham crackers but first freeze them.

You can take a cup of peanut butter, a cup of sugar, and an egg, and
make peanut butter cookies.

PB & bacon are a great combo for hiding the stench of mystery meat...
if you wouldn't order a T-bone topped with PB & bacon why a burger?
Whenever I have a burger I don't want it topped with anything I
wouldn't want on my steak... and since I grind my own burger meat
that's more reason why I don't want to hide the good flavor of fresh
ground beef cooked rare.

I am reminded of the Fool's Gold Loaf, which was a sandwich served by
a restaurant in Denver. Elvis Presley enjoyed this sandwich so much
he would fly in his plane from Memphis to Denver and have them meet
him at the tarmac with a bagful of these sandwiches for him and the
Memphis Mafia to eat on the way back home. This sandwich consisted of
a loaf of Italian Bread that is hollowed out and filled with a jar of
jelly, a jar of peanut putter, and a pound of fried bacon. It's no
wonder he died of a massive heart attack at 42.

Or even graham crackers flavored with cocoa.

I love hot toast with peanut butter. The peanut butter becomes like a sauce.

I'm kind of picky about my swiss cheese. I like dry swiss, and I like the
lacey kind with the many small holes.

I much prefer Jarlsburg to Swiss (Emmentaler). When sliced that lacy
cheese (Swiss? Lorraine) sticks back together, it's not a favorite
anyway... typically sold to fad dieters as it is low fat/salt... but
with very little flavor and terrible texture (Velveeta is far more a
cheese)

Rye toast and almond butter is even better.

I like maple-almond butter. But I've never had it with rye toast.

Okay, this is going to sound really weird and it is SO 50s, but: my
mom made a Jello salad that had whole apricots (positioned in semi-set
Jello so they would stay where she wanted them) which had been pitted
and then stuffed with a combination of peanut butter and bacon. I
thought it was really, really good, even when I was a little kid. I
don't remember her making it much beyond my age of 8 or so.

I just can't eat peanut butter toast. I don't like peanuts as an
ingredient in anything except sometimes a sandwich of pb & j, or pb,
mayo & lettuce.

For me, pb & j has to be on white bread - good, artisanal or Wonder
Bread, doesn't matter to me. ;-)

Yep! Pretty weird. Definitely one I've never run across and I have
more than a passing acquaintance with the freaky Jell-O 50s.
