Make PB&J's, not war.

make good designs, not crap.

^^ hahahaha!

what is it with you kids and the smiling pieces of bread?

not a big fan of the "bread with faces" theme.

What are you talking about? I don't eat bread unless it has a face.

Cute.

This makes me want to turn inside out so that I can't see anymore.

GREAT IDEA the drawing can use a bit of work!

I'm sick of these types of shirts. you suck!

hee hee it's cute. reminds me of the cookie loves milk shirt... but yeah. I like it! Don't listen to them people puttin' you doooown, k?

I don't usually nit-pick about crap like this but the second I saw those I thought of <a href="http://www.pancakemeow.com/" target="resource window">Pancake Meow</a> because those characters look just about exactly like hers.

Bollocks, didn't know I couldn't post a link. It's www.pancakemeow.com

..not sure about the placement.... the idea is cute...but the drawing style ...just doesn't really do it for me.

cute idea though

Not if you're allergic to nuts. :(

Peanut-Butter-Jelly-Time?
I like it. 5.

This shirt is fantastic.

There was a comment earlier about how this design looks similar to something seen on Pancakemeow.com. That's because the woman behind Pancake Meow, Leslie, is a good friend of mine and we are both doing this design together: Her idea + my design work . If this wins, we are splitting the prize money between us.

I don't want anyone to think that I stole this design from someone else.

Thank you for your comments!
Ryan

If the placement was a little lower, they'd look like they had noses in cold weather.

you dont need the text, or at least you need different text

its adorable

My [ex] boyfriend bought me a Valentine's Day card that was similar to this, but it said:

Love
Is like peanut butter & jelly;

You're sweet,
& I'm suck on you.

it's jam!

Sorry, but it's been done here. A lot.

ENOUGH WITH THE FOOD FACES

I DON'T WANT ANYONE TO THINK THAT I STOLE THIS DESIGN FROM SOMEONE ELSE. WE ARE COLLABORATING ON THIS T SHIRT TOGETHER.

So please don't leave stupid comments like ELMOnster did on Mar 25, 2006.

Thanks,
Ryan

This is adorable! =] I love it! 5

I love this design. I'd eat this shirt... Yum!

so cute!!

Awesome!
It's perfect. :)
xoxox

Yes! I am waiting for my Pancake Meow PBJ earrings to come in the mail, and I would LOVE to own a Pancake Meow PBJ shirt to go with them!

$5!

Also, I am obsessed with PBJ anyway, so... XD

boring

it's a cute idea, but the typeface and the layout of the text is all wrong. also, it looks like someone slapped this together in like 5 minutes. there's just very little skill or effort required to make an image like this. and, like a lot of other commenters have mentioned, the food-with-a-face thing is super played-out.

I'm sick of food faces too. sorry...

i feel temptef to say you stole the idea form somebody else, but it might just be a coincidence

it's cute nonetheless

I'd definitely wear this. Very cute. I love PancakeMeow designs! : )

Can I give a -5 for complete lack of originality?

Does mypapercrane know you're ripping her off wholesale?

http://pancake-meow.livejournal.com/226612.html

How in the hell are we ripping my paper crane? My friend RYAN took MY miniature food design from a photo (peanut butter and jam) and made it into a cartoon to design this shirt! I know Heidi and I think you need to think again and do your homework before you go around poinging the finger! !

Gee.. look at this!

This is where the design came from.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v326/Pancake_meow/sammachhh.jpg

It's polymer clay miniatures that I make!

I added a face to this design in which Ryan liked and he wanted to do the design for the shirt.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v326/Pancake_meow/LOVEISPBJLoveis.jpg

Has nothing to do with mypapercrane! I have my own ideas and designs and would never take from anyone else!

This NEEDS to be a shirt.

No thanks, there's enough food with a face shirts already. execution isn't bad, but i wouldn't wear it.

Adorable, but I don't like the font at all... want something more scrawly.

jus my 2 cents...next time, you should post that info about pancakemeow in the beginning

The peanut butter and jelly sandwich (PBJ or PB&J) is a common sandwich in the United States, and Canada, where it's called a peanut butter & jam sandwich. Children are the largest consumers of PB&J sandwiches, usually eating them for lunch.

The recipe is as simple as the name — one slice of bread spread with peanut butter and another spread with jelly, jam, marmalade, or preserves. The two spread sides are then stuck together, resulting in a sandwich that generally will not drip or spill no matter which way it is held. The simplicity of preparation, storage, and eating makes the sandwich a popular choice for children.

A child's lunch is usually made in the morning before going off to school. While at school it will most likely sit in their lunchbox while in the student's locker. This can lead to the jelly soaking through the bread, especially if the jelly side happens to be on the bottom of the sandwich or some other item in the lunch presses against the jelly side. A popular way to avoid this is to slightly alter the way the sandwich is made by spreading peanut butter on both slices of bread and then jelly on top of the peanut butter thus avoiding the problem of the jelly soaking through. Another option is to spread butter or margarine before spreading the jelly on the bread.

Peanut butter was first widely introduced in 1904 at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition although it had been sold as a medical nutritional supplement in St. Louis, Missouri for about 15 years. There is no mention in print of the PB&J prior to 1940. While no one can take credit for the sandwich's invention, one thing that can be ascertained was that both peanut butter and jelly were packed with United States Army K-rations in World War II. The combination proved so popular that returning GIs made peanut butter and jelly sales soar.[citation needed]

PB&J sandwiches are also popular because they can be kept for relatively long periods without refrigeration (unlike, for example, a ham and cheese with mayonnaise).

The United States Department of Defense is researching ways of preserving a PB&J for up to 3 years for its combat troops in the field. Although peanut butter and jelly has been available in the military instant food Meal, Ready-to-Eat (MRE) for many years, it proved difficult to keep bread from spoiling.

In 1998, a shop called Peanut Butter & Co. opened in New York City - they serve nothing but peanut butter sandwiches, and make six different kinds of all natural gourmet peanut butter. Their peanut butter & jelly sandwich is called "The Lunchbox Special" and includes a side of potato chips and carrot sticks.

In December 1999, two independent inventors, Len Kretchman and David Geske, were granted a U.S. patent, US 6004596, "Sealed Crustless Sandwich" to an improved peanut butter sandwich that would have a long shelf life. The J.M. Smucker Co. bought the patent from the inventors and developed a commercial product based on the patent called Uncrustables. Smuckers then made a US$17 million dollar investment in a new factory to produce the product. By 2005, sales of the product grew to $60 million a year with a 20% per year growth rate. These sales correspond to the creation of 1,500 new jobs assuming an average yearly wage of $30,000.

Smuckers has gone on to enforce their patent rights against those that tried to copy the invention by sending cease and desist letters.

Smuckers has also gone on to expand their patent coverage by patenting a machine to produce Uncrustables sandwiches in high volume (US6874409: Method and apparatus for making commercial crustless sandwiches and the crustless sandwich made thereby)

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, however, rejected an effort by J.M. Smucker Co. to patent its process for the making pocket-size peanut butter and jelly pastries.

i did not know about the wwII part.... thats crazy

nice art, rswhite.
$5

Ignore the trolls.

gj xiv, A+ on your research report

$5 for Xiv... you should put all of that on a t-shirt

Sorry, but the 'love is' is a little overdone for me. Recall.

i love sandwiches.

design nazis, fuck off. you're slowing the evolution of what could be a much stronger design community.

this is great. personally, i would prefer to have this shirt without the text. i like it, though.

-text + heart

if those pieces of bread were real you could sell them on eBay. then you wouldn't need some measly t-shirt contest to buy that orange Yugo.

this fucks me off pert II

yumyum+getting to laugh at t-shirt nazis makes this shirt even more enjoyable...5$$

me gustaaaaa

Some of you snobs need to check your own shitty designs! We don't know anything about design and we don't care! :D It's called FUN! You know? FUN? :p

THE TRUTH AT LAST!

(not the in-fighting-- the power of PB&J)

if that was my sandwich, i'd be all Hey, guy, can we get the PB and the J all the way out to the crust please? But then you'd be all Well, guy, the design needs to show that this is bread, and i'd be all F*** that noise, i wanneat the sumbitch!

il buy this shirt, take a dump on it, wrap it up and send it 2 u.

it'd be a 5 if it wasn't for the "love is..." part.

Totally awesome!!! PB&J= love

I dont get it. even if i did. i would think its retarded.

LOL HAHAHAH OMG! You guys are so brilliant!

peanut butter is not yellow

I like the last PBJ shirt I saw up on submissions better than this one and it didn't get it.

So for me being sour, no.

i love it
