Which is more important: The PB or the J in a PP&J?
Answer: neither, they are both required to make a PP&J. However, you can change the ratio of PB to the J
slightly and make no difference either way. If you increase the PB a little, you can get away with a little less J, and likewise if you increase the J a little, you can get away with a little less PB. Unfortunately though, this balance can only go so far. For example if you have no PB, you cannot simply add lots of J to make up for it; you will have a mushy sandwich making you yearn for some PB, which anyone can tell you sucks... especially if you also have an apple in your lunch bag that can smash the J sandwich. Likewise if you have no J, you cannot simply add lots of PB to make up for it; you will have a sticky, hard to chew/swallow thing of PB making you yearn for some J. Also, you cannot just add more bread to make up for some missing PB, or J... then you just have bread, and no real PB&J fan will let that slide; they will call your ass out on that party foul! Essentially all are needed, and thus all are critical in getting you your PB&J... You need enough of all to make a good sandwich.
The analogy is there, I promise
