    Very awesome old tins, not sure how old they are but I knew they had some collectability. One of them (the Lee) I couldn't find another example of it except one with a different label. It sold for quite a bit of money.

      Hard to beat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, my go to is apricot jelly and crumbled up bacon when I have some leftover bacon.

      This reminds me of when I lived in Montego Bay under Michael Manley's communist rule. Under them, we shortly had no foreign currency to import things and had no peanut butter. I contacted a business associate in Toronto who owned a vegetarian store about it and he sent a big plastic paint size bucket down of veggie peanut butter. All my Jamaican friends were lined up with jars for some. The shit had ceramic no oil or salt in it and we bent several spoons dishing it out. They all came back later saying, "What this shit, Mon?". It wouldn't spread on a ceramic tile, much less a slice of bread ! Burned up my blender trying to get it mixed with oil & salt. A fisherman finally sank it to use as a mooring and it is probably still there. 30 yrs later ! It did breed some anti-communist voters. LOL!
