Today Is April 2

National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day celebrates on April 2, 2020 the favorite lunchtime sandwich of American children, and many adults.

The first reference to peanut butter being paired with jelly was in 1901. It was in an article by Julia Davis Chandler in the Boston Cooking School Magazine of Culinary Science and Domestic Economics.


The average American child will have eaten over 1500 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches by the time they graduate from high school.

The world's largest peanut butter and jelly sandwich  was assembled in Grand Saline, Texas on November 13, 2010. It was made in Grand Saline, Texas, weighed 1,342 pounds and contained 292 pounds of peanut butter, 340 pounds of grape jelly, and 710 pounds of bread.
