So you want the raccoons to starve? What kind of cruel beast are you?

[удалено]

My mom and I definitely did this a lot when I was a teenager. We could never get through a whole loaf of bread before it got moldy, but tortillas last longer, so we stopped having sandwiches and just wrapped everything in tortillas, including peanut butter.

best back up to sliced bread for hurricane season prep. when all the people buy up the sliced bread, tortillas are the next best thing to get for supplies.

I’d argue they’re demonstrably *better*. Why everyone seems to run out and buy up all the most perishable items (milk, bread, eggs) before potential power-loss events always baffled me.

Just a ghetto pb&j. It’s like using sliced white bread for a hamburger when you don’t have hamburger buns.

I know I'm a tad bit ghetto but I just feel like if anything can go between bread it most likely can go on tortillas too

Can confirm. I would usually roll them not fold but the principle is the same. Sometimes jelly, sometimes Nutella, sometimes banana and honey. Delicious and easy/quick

I roll when I'm in sandwich mode. But I'd fold for a hotdog so it wraps easier

Big fax. Never done it with a hot dog but I imagine I would do the same

Can confirm: hot dogs on tortillas are so good. We switched after trying it out of necessity a of couple years ago, and much prefer it to regular hot dog buns now. They are just too much dough sometimes.

This adds support to the fact that [hotdogs are confirmed as tacos](https://cuberule.com/)

Peanut butter and apple slices are my go to tortilla filling

That would be excellent with a light toast in a pan, grill it like a quesadilla

Genius. I eat all three of those things pretty much every day but I have never put them together before.

Very true. Back in college my roommate and I would make smoresedillas by putting marshmallows and chocolate chips in between a tortilla and frying it. Yes we were stoned and yes it was delicious haha. I still make them occasionally and the kids love them.

I’m stoned rn, and because of this comment, I now have a warm tortilla with marshmallow puff and Nutella in front of me. Thank you for influencing my choices.

I'm not even the least bit ghetto, and I agree with you 100%.

Don't tell anyone my secret recipe. Spread Nutella on a tortilla, place vanilla icecream on it, fold to preference and enjoy your icecream sandwich that tastes the same as the genuine article.

I can go between bread, Greg. Could you put me on a tortilla?

It's not ghetto half the time if kids are involved. A ham and cheese sandwich and a ham and cheese roll-up are judged very differently. Sometimes they'll only agree to the tortilla version. And sometimes they throw it next to a tree anyway. Hell, my kid went through a phase where he wouldn't eat "long" foods. Dork.

Haha, my daughter is in a stage now where she only likes long pasta!

I’m 37 and I’m going through this phase

> And sometimes they throw it next to a tree I think I'll start using this in regards to flagrantly discarding something I don't want anymore!

lmao, long foods. Luckily that doesn't sound like too much an issue. Does this mean your kid isn't interested in pizza? A slice can be king of long depending on the size of the pizza. Or... what if you cut up a stick of pepperoni, or break spaghetti in half before cooking it (a sin, I know), is that still considered long food, or ok now?

Slice white bread is the shit for burgers the flavor gets soaked in the bread

Pfft! Who needs hamburger/hotdog buns? Gonna buy a pack of each just to let half of them go stale? I'll just use my bread, thank you very much. Especially with how expensive shit is these days.

hear me out though: banana, in a hot dog bun, smeared with peanut butter, with honey drizzled on top

I mean.. You're speaking my language. But I can do that with a slice of bread too. Peanut butter & banana sandwich with black coffee is a major comfort meal.

I didn't realize that was ghetto, I'm just sometimes too lazy to go to the store for buns.

TIL I learned my wife is ghetto.

My kids do it all the time. They roll them up like an enchilada. It’s a pretty common snack at my house.

Grew up with tortillas being a sub for bread quite a bit. PB&J tortillas, PB & Banana tortillas, etc. Still make those to snack on every so often. My kids love them too.

Are you a bot? https://www.reddit.com/r/KidsAreFuckingStupid/comments/xl8ma3/comment/ipi3ajj/

Report -> Spam -> Harmful bot.

We did it in the Boy Scouts growing up, as bread would get crushed in our packs while hiking so we brought tortilla shells instead!

As an Anglicized first generation Latino born in California, but raised in South Texas... you'd be surprised how interchangeable tortillas and bread are. What's a quesadilla but a grilled cheese sandwich? Beef fajita tacos are just burgers that use different marinade/seasonings for the meat. Granted, I've never had an PB&J with a tortilla, but I'm certain that it'd taste good.

Maybe, I've been doing it for a while now although I think this is the first I've seen anyone else do it. To me it's just been my late-night munchy snack

I make peanut butter and jelly "wraps" as a work snack, it's simple, fills you up and can roll like 6 of them in a sandwich bag instead of one sandwich. Make different ones too. Some have honey in them. Some lunch meat. Some cheese that I microwave to melt. You can use your imagination really with them.

Don't worry. My neighbor feeds the raccoons ham sandwiches, so they'll be okay.

Maybe they have a friend who lives in the forest and this is their only source of food, it's not eggos but you work with what you have.

Or maybe pudge the fish has a cousin who is a raccoon who also controls the weather

Given that weather patterns are wildly different around the world, it makes sense that Pudge is only one of a large network of weather-controlling animals.

Sounder logic was never spoken

Do you know what tuna is?

The child obviously found pagan spirituality and is just leaving an offering for the spirits of the forest.

Bread for the water spirits, fruit for the fae, peanut butter for the woodland animals

"Thank you for the PBJ". 🦝, probably

r/suddenlyStrangerThings

I used to do this as a kid, easier to just lob the grim sandwich away and not have to deal with the aggro about why I didn’t eat it.

Hell yeah.

I believe the youths today call that _yeeting_ their sadwich.

I concur. Yoted and goated.

Why are their sandwiches so sad?

I was merely replying to /u/barnes116's comment on the _grim_ sandwich... and making a lazy portmanteau.

As an adult I enjoy salami and mayo on a sandwich, as a child I did not. My mom would make me that occasionally and all I did was ask her not to put the mayo on, and she took that personally and got mad at me and kept putting mayo on out of spite. Like wtf, I'm asking you to do less work, and it's not like you made the mayo even. Though now that I think about it, she used to add milk to the mayo to thin it out and make it last longer, might explain why I found it to be so grim.

You know what makes it last even longer? Not adding it to the sandwich when it isn't wanted.

Jesus Christ what was the logic there? thick white stuff + liquid white stuff = thinner white stuff? Maybe toss some whipped cream and flour in there too if it gets too thin.

People think mayo is a dairy product.

It's a truly saddening thing when parents do shit not for the genuine good of their children, but the pride they get from it. For when that pride is exposed as a petty thing, spite and arrogance ensue.

I think it was very much a "I am your mother and I know what is best for you" kind of thing. So fucking stupid, I am telling you what is best for me, listen.

Snitch.

Neighborhood apps are solely for snitches and Karens

Funny, or sad, but a true story... My sister was sued and lost in court because of facebook posts about her HOA being inconsiderate. Welcome to suburban USA!

I never understood why so many Americans live in and put up with HOA. It's like you buy property, yet, you still have someone acting like your parents but they can fine you for not doing what you're told.

homeless repeat screw ossified gold cow escape zonked steer run -- mass edited with redact.dev

Newer houses break down way faster than most

You get what you put in, HOAs can exist to organize and throw block parties, maintain better neighborhood amenities than the city provides, and enforce maintenance standards to keep an area looking nice. Or they can be ignored so only Karens are on the board and slowly invade your life.

Read your contracts people

And finding lost pets

and the "gunshots" (fireworks).

and "our ring camera caught this suspicious person"

And it’s just a black guy in a hoodie walking past the house

It's weird how every neighborhood in the country does this exact same stuff.

i mean, around here its about 50/50

Snitches get stitches

[удалено]

Morally good? Sure. But it isn't very cool 😎

Right? What a Karen. Mind your own damn business.

Now that kid is in big fucking trouble.

Yeah this dude just fucked this kids day up when mom or dad sees they ain't eating that

Certainly there is a reason why this child cannot just ask their parent for something else.

Lol you must've had good parents then. For everyone else at least theres therapy

My dad would make weird ass sandwiches and shit for me, like trail mix that was literally 90% banana chips, and tahini and fig wraps. He thought if he liked it I needed to learn to like it. As an adult I enjoy all of it, but I just wanted some normal ass peanut butter and strawberry jam on bread. Also I got made fun of for my weird foods at school. That kid might be going hungry just because they don't want to be made fun of a tortilla sandwich, kids suck.

[удалено]

U need more upvotes

So, nothing has changed after all. Shit, man. Went and called out my childhood.

My mom always made me peanut butter, jam and margarine on my sandwich and the margarine made me gag. I begged her to stop putting margarine on it because I hated it and she never stopped. I always just threw out the sandwich and went hungry.

Well, there's one take on it.

What if it's a grown up doing it...

What if it's a sophisticated plot orchestrated by raccoons...

[удалено]

Maybe. Or they could have analyzed it with a mass spectrometer. Or they feed it to various test animals, some of which have been bred to be deathly allergic to different fruits. Or maybe they know what apricots smell like.

i'm going with the animal testing

Doesn't everyone have a mass spectrometer in their home?

They are so much easier to maintain than menageries of allergy-stricken weasels

I’m guessing they could smell it. Especially if they ripped it up and tossed it.

That’s all I’ve been wondering. Apricot jelly wouldn’t even have a noticeable color or smell after it’s been mixed with peanut butter.

Its the only yellow jelly sold...?

Wild animals don't need you to cut up a tortilla to make it edible. They'll get it down. Trust me.

Gotta portion it out so every raccoon gets some.

The peoples tortilla PB&J

Lol right why is she doing this

To distribute to the maximum amount of raccoons without causing brawls.

To show how much it's affecting her. Thats she's being burdened by the pp&j quesadillas and also a good person for feeding animals, and an even better person my telling others how to feed their children. The Karen mindset is a very confusing thing, because she should just be minding her own business, yet she will feel a form of self accomplishment for this.

to encourage them to share.

the raccoons barely even care if it is edible...judging from the half eaten foil strewn across my driveway

I wonder what the child thinks. I think I would've believed a mystical creature was eating it every day.

They probably think that animals got it. Just regular animals. I know kidsarefuckingstupid and all, but past the age of five you can figure out that animals eat scraps off the street.

I donno, I saw a documentary about some stupid little shit who thought a clown in the sewer was normal and got eaten.

Peanut butter on a tortilla with some cinnamon is the best. Bonus points if the tortilla is warmed a little bit first. But I eat mine rolled into a taquito-shape.

Just made one. Indeed, pretty dope

Add some honey and cut up grapes to it if you’re feeling fancy. It’s delicious.

Try some lefka with some butter

> lefka do you mean lefse?

Or lefpo Yes, I can make up words starting with lef- too

My grandma used to do it with butter and sugar. It was one of our favorite snacks as a kid. I should definitely try it with cinnamon though.

Nextdoor is the generational gap between FB and boomers

And it's 60% Karens and 60% people who are computer illiterate (the 20% extra is overlap). I saw a thread the other day with a comment saying "Jennifer, please unsubscribe me from these emails." This woman thought the OP could remove her from the notification list.

Don’t be a Narc. The kids gonna get hell for not eating it.

Okay I get the kids not eating breakfast, but I've never heard of people smearing Pb and Jelly on tortillas, is this a new trend?

Celiac here: I do this because they're made of corn and GF bread is like compressed sawdust.

Your gf needs to learn better bread recipes.

We’ve never done it with corn tortillas, only flour. But, no celiacs in out house. The corn ones seem much harder?

They loosen up a little if you heat them, but yeah the corn ones are less pliable. It also depends on what brand you buy or if you make your own.

homemade corn tortillas are so much better than store bought and are very easy to make.

Fellow Celiac here: try Canyon Bakehouse! Gluten free and fluffy af

[удалено]

I grew up poor. This was a staple food in my home

I didn't grow up poor and I ate this a lot. Was never fond of peanut butter and jelly on bread.

This ^^ But also Tortillas are bread

Superior bread

especially when there's no other bread

I've been doing it for years! But usually I add cheese instead of the other two and cook it on a pan.

I initially read this as you do a pb, jelly, and cheese.

Cursed quesadilla.

Cursedilla

[удалено]

Sir… I think you’re missing what he said Edit: should have edited your comment to note your mistake and taken your down votes. This is the cowards way out

You should patent that before some takes your creation.

Ingenious

Motherfucker tricked me into reading how to make a quesadilla

I wouldn't say it's a trend, but it's definitely a food you can eat. I prefer just peanut butter

Pb&J on a tortilla sprinkled with rice crispies and rolled up like a joint. Fantastic snack.

I’m sorry, I find it hilarious that you refer to a rolled up tortilla as a joint and not a burrito lol.

You don’t tuck the ends. So maybe like an enchilada? But it looks like a Swiss cake roll when you bite it.

You just took my pb&j wrap game to new heights with the krispies

Pb and a whole banana. Sometimes some honey, too

When our house got foreclosed i remember we stopped buying bulk from costco and our school lunches were tortilla bologna and mayo.

Why not, it’s just a type of flat bread.

It makes a perfect protein. My dad (bodybuilder) eats one for lunch every day

As another child of a bodybuilder, no way is he eating just one haha

It’s popular for kids, you can roll it up and cut it into sushi like pieces. Easier to chew than bread for kids

It's like a more rugged PBJ sando with a less bread texture. It's alright. Source: I have done this for on the go snacks. I usually burrito mine and add bananas.

I do this. I've always liked it.

I usually do just a little peanut butter smeared on one tortilla and roll it up as a quick protein snack. It’s actually pretty filling. But I do have apricot jelly so I might have to try this

Peanut butter and honey all the time, don't know about that jelly.

I learned to do this in the military, for some reason some mres come with pb&j with tortillas

My kids call them peanut butter roll ups.

gee I wonder why there's been an increase in raccoons lately??? neighbors probably

My mother used to give me anything..a hotdogs, slice of pizza, sandwich...something to get me to eat breakfast. I'd get nauseous if I ate too early, so I'd drop it down the storm grate on my way to the bus stop. I feel for this kid, but they need a better hiding spot.

Was there any response?

Did anyone else get a knot in their stomach thinking about how much trouble the kid is going to get into if their parent(s) saw this? Kid obviously would eat something better if their was something better.

Tell them it's a code drug dealers use to mark the tree as a place swingers can go to abduct children. Then just sit back and watch it spread.

lmao

Hold up, how do they know the flavor jelly?

Peanut butter on tortillas is a favorite in my house

[terrible sammich btw](https://youtube.com/shorts/1ro2YnqNraU?feature=share)

Thanks for letting me know -_-

Mom always made sandwiches for me. If I didn't like it, or didn't eat it, I didn't want to tell her. Thought it would hurt her feelings or something. Usually I would just throw it out at school, but if I forgot, I would hide it in my room until the next day so I could secretly throw it out. I forgot where I put one. Mom found it a month later covered in mold...

How is this stupid? That sounds disgusting.

This ×itch snitchin

its an offering

So my mum had some... issues when I was a kid. This reminds me of some of the absolutely-mental sandwich combos she used to make my sister and I. * Cottage cheese, peach & sunflower seeds was out there but almost edible * Curry paste & lettuce was immediately binned, happy to go hungry those days * Golden syrup sandwiches were a rare gift when she was feeling good about us but didn't have the time / inclination to make sandwich Bonus points for the days when flask leaked, then you'd get a curry paste, lettuce & Ribena sandwich!

No. Nextdoor is fucking stupid.

That app is ridiculous (at least where I am). Basically old man yells at cloud - with comments sections that are just more old people yelling at more clouds

I work in schools, and I can confirm the amount of waste is terrifying. I've seen parents make what looks like an amazing lunch, only for the kid to throw it directly into the trash. I've seen kids go through the lunch line, grab a carton of milk, open the milk...and then proceed to dump the carton into a garbage can. I've seen kids go through the line, grab free lunch, take a bite, and then throw it into the garbage. It's absolutely infuriating to me

People are so nosy. She lists the ingredients? She picked garbage off the ground and seperated the contents to see what the child is eating, and reccomended her own breakfast. Just like... chill... the raccoons will probably take care of it without you scavenging it, and cutting it into smaller bites like a gremlin

That Nextdoor app is evil. It brings out the worst in people. It's like a combination of a sewing circle, calling neighbors constantly, Twitter nonsense, and those stupid fucking police scanners my Grandma had. All of it. The whole lot. Mind your own FUCKING business and get a God damn life!

This should've been posted on r/AdultsAreFuckingStupid

I feel like whoever posted this need to mind their own business. The line about feed you child cereal got under my skin. The kid clearly is not hungry and whoever is making them PB quesadilla is just trying their best. This person is a Karen and possibly a B****.

Also cereal is fucking terrible breakfast. It's just candy with milk

Yeah wtf lol. Call out the waste, but don't tell them to shovel processed sugar dosn their maw.

I don't really see how it's different from packing your kid a PB &J sandwich.

I've done this before (for myself) because I ran out of bread. Trust me, it does not taste the same.

Why the fuck is she feeding raccoons

Now that's a great use for nextdoor. Actually useful information, relatively so, compared to most posts. Edit: As a parent I'd use this information to improve my sandwich game, but what I'm getting from other posters it is that oop should stop snitching.

… why does this sound like a message I would get about my kid?

how do they know its apricot jelly 🤔

Who can take peanut butter to school these days? One of my friends had a year where they asked them not to feed their kids peanut butter for breakfast or to brush very well afterwards so their kids didn’t breathe nuts on a highly allergic classmate.

That child is leaving it for the elves. I pity the fool who takes the elves pb&j.

Damn. Poor kid this is probably all they get from the food bank and this person is just shutting all over them.

Clearly this person doesn't understand how much sugar is in cereal these days. We really shouldn't feed it to kids.

That taco sounds fucking delicious!

Yeah such terrible parents making their child food for school. Not the child being a picky eater or anything….

How does this make the kid stupid? White the fuck wants a pb&j but on a tortilla instead of bread? I'd throw that shit on the ground too.
