There's a meme that has floated around online for about five years in which a photograph of a plain peanut butter and jelly sandwich is captioned with the following sentence: "Well chef, I made a puréed nut spread with a grape relish reduction paired with a brioche bun."
It is, of course, a play on the now-cliché way in which contestants on programs like "Chopped" and "Top Chef" present their creations (especially ones built with everyday ingredients) to the judges. But the truth is there are few things I like more than a gourmet PB&J.
