What kind of jelly do you use for your peanut butter and jelly sandwiches?
I'm going to make the acceptable answers broad so jam, preserves, etc are all acceptable. I'm a fig jam or apple butter man myself.

My man, raspberry jam is where it"s at. Perfect sweet/tart to PB ratio. No other spread has beaten it yet.
preserves >> jam
What's the difference?
I'm pretty sure preserves have actual chunks of fruit and jam is made from puree. Jelly is just made from fruit juice.
TIL thanks.
Jam is mashed, preserves have chunks of fruit. With some fruits it's hard to leave large china during processing (like raspberries, which break easily when properly ripe), at which point raspberry preserves might have less sugar then raspberry jam.
B-B-But, where are the toothpicks?
Happy to see I'm not the only one who prefers raspberry jam! Imo it's truly the perfect pairing
