Different Combinations


I tutor a 7th grader from Bridgewater twice a week just helping him with homework and projects. When I arrived the other day he was having a peanut butter and banana snack. I asked him what he liked about the combination, and simply replied “It’s good.” Shortly after he elaborated a little more and said it was his favorite combination and sometimes he even puts slice of bananas in his sandwich. I went home this weekend and realized it was my sister’s favorite combo too! The fried peanut butter banana sandwich is known as Elvis’s sandwich choice. I thought about more combinations that could be made with peanut butter and discussed it with friends. Instead of the cliché Pb & j combo why not try a new unique concoction. Besides bananas, try honey, bacon, cheese, pickles, marshmallows, chips, crackers, mayo, and fried eggs. (maybe even a little bit of chocolate) I wonder what other combinations can be discovered and created by experimenting with peanut butter.
