And "Groton" above is not me, even though it says Chelmsford. And I have no idea why it says Chelmsford. I work in Boston.

What are you saying?

I find your post totally incomprehensible, and I teach public school. Not for nothing, but I've had to make sense of some pretty crazy writing, and yours is right up there.

Want to try again?

I guess my folks were rich way back when as my Mom added Welch's Grape Jelly. Making it on toast (using Wonder white bread of course) made it easier to spread the PB and Fluff on each piece with jelly then on either. Alas, I guess it technically couldn't be called a FluffNutter then. Cutting the sandwich on the diagonal also added something as well as Wise chips (per the salty contrast to the sweetness) were a must...LOL

Using grape jelly is not associated with the rich. This is: Pardon me, but do you have any Grey Poupon.

Ok, maybe the Faux Riche then. Typically, well off folks way back when were more likely to afford lamb while us folks had meat loaf. While they garnished with (green) mint jelly, we garnished with Welch's Grape Jelly...try it, you'll like it!

The four fillings of a sky bar were marshmallow, chocolate, caramel, and rat feces.

I think if the state sandwich is Fluff and peanut butter, the peanut butter should come from Mass as well. Teddie Peanut Butter is made in Everett and taste great.

Don't we have more pressing issues in this state than to decide what the state sandwich is? Another way to waste taxpayers money. Massachusetts is such a JOKE!

This just proves wrong all of you who rant and rave that the men and women of the state legislature can't accomplish anything.
