This really shouldn't surprise me, but for some reason it does. A company has developed
peanut butter slices that come in packs (similar to packs of sliced cheese). I'm not sure how they made the peanut butter rigid enough, and non-sticky enough, that it could be formed into a plastic-wrapped slice. But somehow they did. I'd be worried that whatever they did to it would affect the taste. No word on whether anyone has developed sliced jam. [Update: they have; see the comments below.] I think if you're going to eat sliced peanut butter, you naturally should have it on
Sara Lee's crustless bread. It would be the perfect meal for anyone too lazy to do anything on their own. (Thanks to Kathy for giving me a heads up about this product)

Might be more convienient in slice form, but I can't imagine it would have the same tecture.
Just today I noticed imitation shredded mozzarella on sale at two local supermarkets. It was made from hydrogenated oil and loaded with trans-fat. Get your heart attack cheap. 😖

I'll remember to thank my mom for putting the effort into making peanut butter sandwhiches FROM SCRATCH. She even used to draw a little heart on the PB with the knife and serve them open faced sometimes. I never realized how lucky I was. And she mananged to do all that and work full time.
Next we need sheets of solidified butter for people who are too lazy to butter their own toast.
Stoners. Would not. Eat them.
I've seen them eat things that AREN'T FOOD, like candles, but one taste of these slices of evil and they vowed to never touch them again.
And what are you doing feeding stoners?!?!
As for feeding stoners, they're always hungry. It's a good way to get rid of things you don't want.
It would also probably be handy for baiting mousetraps. Contrary to popular legend, people in the pest control industry say mice aren't all that crazy about cheese. They much prefer peanut butter. I've even seen traps for sale that had a synthetic "bait" shaped and colored like a piece of Swiss cheese, but scented with peanut butter.
This is a link to a combined pb+j slice... yes, I said it. Combined.
How the hell... wouldn't, after a while, the two just sort of... combine within the jar? Peanut Butter and Jam has lost its novelty. I'm telling ya... What about the people who prefer a certain peanut butter to jam ratio? The pre-packages slices and combo jars will never tend to their needs...
