What do you think should accompany a PB&J sandwich?

I had mine with an orange and my usual carrot, but that’s just an example.

Milk.
A second PBJ
I like putting half a cut-up banana in mine, then eating the other banana half for dessert.
- Dessert after a dessert?
  
  Always.
BBQ potato chips

- Unrealistic goals....
  
  Not if you make a really good PB&J
I usually eat it on its own. Maybe a glass of milk to wash it down. Maybe some chips if I'm really hungry.

For me, a PB&J is usually a snack if I'm feeling hungry between meals, so I usually eat light if I'm having one.
Milk, celery sticks and a box of California raisins.
- If you've got peanut butter, celery sticks, and raisins, which are all present in the above scenario, then I'd probably do bugs on a log:
  
  But where do you put the jelly?
Granny Smith Apple Slices

Get some crisp and sour into that formula

A second PB&J sandwich
- That's when you make PB&J with uncrustables.
I'm a simple chips enjoyer (or crisps if you're a Britbong). Something salty to balance the sweet jelly. I usually eat crunchy peanut butter, so it's already a little savory.
Cheez-Its.
- Cheez-Its always sounded like a curse word to me. Like you drop a wrench on your toe, and you yell "AW CHEEZ-ITS!!!"
  
  Bender says it when he wants the gang to run. Well, he says "Cheese it!" which is close enough.
  
  I hear that in Butter's voice.
Lightly toast one side of each slice of bread for the outside of the sandwich (or the inside depending your preference).

Place a slice (shaved from a block) of cold cheddar cheese in between the PB and J. You can vary the thickness of the cheese slice depending on the texture you'd prefer.

Enjoy!
Milk and banana.
A bowl of chili
A nice Cuke, its heaven in a can.
2qty toasted pb&j sammies, a bowl of apple sauce & a can of orange soda. If lunch was a last meal that'd be my last meal lunch menu. You eat 1 Sammy, then apple sauce, then drink half of can, then eat 2nd Sammy and top off the orange soda.
Pickles!
Toothpaste
NF & C?
Chips and applesauce
Pb&j burritos are far superior to sandwiches, you can get more filling and less “breads”. I typically eat mine with a small handful of chips (harvest cheddar, or the red bag of sun chips may be my favorite with pb&j) or some sort and some dill pickles.
- For me, the bread is part of the experience of the PB&J. You have piqued my interest, though. How do you prepare this PB&J burrito?
  
  Heat a flour tortilla so it is soft and pliable. Add peanut butter, then add jelly (you may want to stir the jelly in a bowl so it is not lumpy, if you mix it on the tortilla it can mix the pb with the j and some do not like that, it does not bother me personally). Fold over the left and right sides slightly, and then roll it up, and enjoy!
Beer
A big glass of water and maybe a big pretzel with cheese sauce.
slices of salami add texture and flavor.
