Also some people swear by peanut butter and banana. But since these suggestions do not involve jelly perhaps they do not answer the question.

My dad has some contraband vegemite with which he pollutes his pb&js.

A friend of mine once asked me if I had dual US/AUS citizenship.  I replied no, they wouldn't take me because I don't like vegemite.
Childhood trauma.  Vegemite != chocolate

Quoted for shared agony. Slathered marmite on some toast with the expectation that it would be like Nutella, then the only other European bread spread I had had contact with. Diagnosis: ALL BAD.

EDIT: Also, I have not forgotten about the Heath Bar Cake recipe I intended to post, just still looking for it.

Daaaamn! Now there's one toast combination that I have neglected to try. Maybe tomorrow for brekkie I'll have some toast with PB&J and try a little Marmite on it.

I have only ever tried Marmite and I FRIKKIN' LOVE IT, so I haven't tried other yeast extract spreads such as Vegemite. I got three jars when I was In Town last. I hear that Bovril used to be made from beef, but after the mad cow scare they too switched to a yeast extract, which is vegan like Marmite and Vegemite.

Only it's naaaaaysty! OK,  I may not be the best judge, as I despise marmite. Foul stuff. Disgusting.

Might have to go make marmite on toast...
It's not even a conflicting thing, I just hate it, but daymn, it be about time I had some.

Penance?

Yep, it went vegetarian in 2004 partly because of BSE and also to expand the market.

There was no demand for it because it was shite, so it went back to delicious meat juice. God, it's fuck*ng delicious.

Sex up your PB&J by frying it.  Make the sandwich as you normally would, then butter the outside bread surfaces and put it in a flat pan over medium heat, as if you were making a "grilled" cheese sandwich.  Let the bread brown a little and enjoy the melty sweetness.

If you want to get seven-kinky, sprinkle some powdered sugar on that bitch before you dig in.

The other day I par-toasted some waffles (heated but not brown), then spread some peanut butter on them and returned them to finish toasting.  I cut them into strips and dipped them in honey before eating.

It was so good I burned my tongue but couldn't stop.  I can only imagine what this would taste like when made with real waffles.

Toaster waffles with peanut butter and karo is basically the stuff dreams are made of.

this guy was telling me that in his hometown (Carbondale, IL) they grill bagels. It was a tradition started by accident. They put really weird, random-sounding things on them (cream cheese, bacon bits, apple slices, butter) and there's also a weird rivalry thing-- there are two guys in town that sell these bagels, and one is essentially the "orthodox" where the other has experimented with toppings over time.

What's unusual about a grilled bagal?

My favourite childhood sandwich was two layers, the bottom was ultra crunchy peanut butter and sultanas, the top was honey and sultanas.
Sometimes banana in there too.
Very Tasty.

What are sultanas? Are dried grapes aka raisins, or are they currants or something? I'm confused.

[Doc]

Yeah dried grapes. Not sure what the difference is except I think raisins are generally smaller and sweeter, possibly a different grape variety or something.

Hmmm wikipedia tells me that sultana is the name for a type of white seedless grape, especially in it's form as a raisin. So I guess raisin in the general term and sultana is a specific variety. But over here any dried grape is a sultana.
