Some younger hooligan known as me “Unc” the opposite day, and it’s been sticking in my craw ever since.
Whereas his tone instructed it was derogatory, I’m gonna select to take it one other means – Gen Alpha should find out about my affinity for Unc-rustables, one thing I do know we’ve got in widespread. Yeah, I’m nonetheless cool.
Talking of cool, permit me to introduce essentially the most revolutionary handheld Apple product for the reason that O.G. iPod – Up & Apple Uncrustables. Smuckers has blessed us with a brand new taste of its wonderful frozen PB&J, and it’s arguably its finest effort so far.
Truly, I’m not right here to argue, I’m right here to evaluate. Up & Apple is unequivocally one of the best Uncrustables “sandwich” ever.
Have you ever ever had a peanut butter and apple cinnamon jelly sandwich? If not, I’m telling you now to start out consuming peanut butter and apple cinnamon jelly sandwiches. I’d by no means had a peanut butter and apple cinnamon jelly sandwich till now, and I’m not going again. The one factor that’s ever gonna stick in my craw once more is, let’s all say it collectively, peanut butter and apple cinnamon jelly sandwiches!
That stated, I solely need them in barely thawed crimped UFO type. The most effective type.
I’m certain you’re all accustomed to the customarily imitated, by no means duplicated freezer PB&J at this level. Dealer Joe’s made a valiant effort, and there are some respectable knockoffs on the market, however nobody has come near Uncrustables. Don’t even get me began on the Lunchables “try.” These ought to be known as “Untrustables.”
I didn’t suppose Smucker’s may enhance on its system, however Up & Apple is the brand new king.
The apple jelly seems like honey with little specks of cinnamon, and it tastes wonderful.
I used to be all the time a fan of cinnamon applesauce as a child, and this actually introduced me again. The flavour jogged my memory of Mott’s with the jelly clearly being smoother and stickier than gritty apple sauce. I’d say it’s additionally much less clumpy than the Uncrustables berry-centered counterparts.
I think about some folks would possibly discover these slightly cloying, because the jelly is dangerously near being too candy and synthetic. Nevertheless, the cinnamon cuts it and melds with the peanut butter and “unbeatably tender bread” to perfection.
I’m an “al dente” Uncrustables enjoyer. I let it sit for about ten minutes to maintain the peanut butter slightly on the firmer facet, and, man, is it good with this jelly. It additionally made me understand I’d in all probability take pleasure in Uncrustables with crunchy peanut butter, so think about this my pitch for “Uncrustables Crunchables,” if that title isn’t trademarked.
Talking of names, “Up & Apple” stinks to its core, however I’m simply reaching for a nitpick as a result of this evaluate is simply too constructive.
Uncrustables had been one in all my favourite snacks earlier than this, they usually’ve solely moved up the record.
I can’t think about them topping this, however I’m holding out hope for a marmalade taste. I do know I, and that little pantless freak Paddington, would actually admire it. Paddington is Unc.
… I’m not cool.
I actually don’t like giving out excellent scores. I don’t imagine in perfection. It’s too finite for me.
Anyway, these are elite. Ten out of ten.
