Let me take you back to a time, when the four year old is famished and whiny, the two year old just wants to be held, and you need to make a sandwich for said four year old with only one hand.
Now if you were to make a normal peanut butter and jelly sandwich, you'd have to get not one but two jars out, open not one but two jars (one-handed, remember!), get out two knives (if you're as much of a neatnik as my husband, that is - PB is PB and J is J and ne'er the two shall meet... in the jars. On the bread is OK), spread the PB and then spread the jelly.
As you can see, we are talking about a labor and time-intensive operation here.
But, never to fear! Busy parents everywhere, you may start the rejoicing now.

OK are you done rejoicing? Because I really want to make sure you're paying attention to hear about the most wonderful, innovative product on the market to reduce the time it takes to make a PB & J sandwich: GOOBER GRAPE!
What is this magical concoction, you say? PB & J... in the same jar? Surely this creation was dreamed up by the magical creator who first put together peanut butter & chocolate in a reese's peanut butter cup, someone with an impressive imagination to be able to truly understand the lives and pains of busy parents around the world and create such an innovative product to optimize those pains.
Well whoever dreamed it up, all I know is that using Goober Grape instead of plain old boring normal peanut butter & Jelly has saved me at least 10 seconds a day, if not 15! At the rate of one PB&J sandwich per day (and let's be realistic here folks - sometimes it's more than one - I'm not into cooking) amortized over a year, that saves you ninety one minutes! But don't forget to count that time over the remaining 10 years that you can expect said four year old to continue to eat PB&J sandwiches, that's fifteen hours of your time saved, all because of this magical product!
But wait, that's not all... I saved the best for last: it doesn't require refrigeration.
Why not, you ask?
Hrm. I'm not actually sure. It's rather odd that jelly requires refrigeration but goober grape doesn't.
<shake head>
Well, nevermind! The important thing is fifteen seconds per day folks! I am not making this up! And with this, I return you to your regularly scheduled programming. Next time you're at the grocery (that is, if you can stop yourself from going and ordering it online this very minute!), be sure to pick up a jar or five.
P.S. I jest, but actually I love the stuff. Seriously.
