The peanut butter, with it's thicker texture and protein is obviously the meat, and the jelly, with it's more liquidy texture and lack of nutrition is the condiment

I second this.

I'd eat a peanut butter sandwich without the jelly, but I don't think I'd ever eat just a jelly sandwich.

Similar question for cheese and ketchup, you'd be more likely to eat a cheese sandwich without ketchup than a ketchup sandwich without cheese

Jelly sandwiches are actually pretty solid... have you ever had jam on toast?

[โ€“] tiefling@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 months ago

You do you, but ketchup on a grilled cheese sounds nasty. Ketchup is a C tier condiment at best.

Who eats a cheese sandwich with ketchup? That's disgusting. Now peanut butter and cheese sandwich? Perfectly acceptable.

If you've never tried it before, a grilled cheese sandwich cut into your favourite shapes just calls out to be dipped in ketchup. And if ketchup is too much, a creamy tomato soup is also acceptable.

But would you eat a peanut butter sandwich with catsup?

Peanut is a versatile flavor. Sweet, savory, whatever.

You could use it with ketchup if you like. The mix could be a pretty nice combo to use as a sauce for a Thai dish, honestly. Just on bread would probably be pretty overwhelming alone.

Not all condiments go with all fillings. For example, ketchup with tuna would be pretty rare, but mayo would be almost a requirement.

Dunno about that, but a heaping tablespoon full in a pot of chili is bomb.

Jelly can have some nutrition but yeah peanut butter is the protein. Most vegan pho meat is from legumes after all.

Do you mean "faux" meat? "Pho" is Vietnamese soup. "Faux" comes from French and means "fake" or "imitation", and is pronounced like "foe".

[โ€“] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

indeed I do but I forget it spelt like that. not that I spell particularly well to begin with.

[โ€“] JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

Cool, I had to ask because when I read "vegan pho meat" I actually thought you might be talking about pho specifically :)
