When I was little and made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich every day to take in my lunch, I hated it when peanut
butter would get in to the jar with the jam, or vice versa. I also didn't want to have to wipe off or wash the knife
halfway through making my sandwich because it seemed inefficient and, to maximize my sleeping time, I wanted a fast
sandwich. As a result, I tried to use the exact amount of peanut butter or jelly, so as to have none left on the knife.
At 8 years old, I thought this seemed pretty clever, but having one of these dual-sided peanut
butter and jelly spreaders would have solved my problems completely. The color-coded sides enable you to dip to your
heart's content without mixing the contents of the jars. They're $11.99
and, to justify the expense on the silicone kitchen tool, you can use them for anything from buttering toast to
spreading frosting on cupcakes.

Maybe pull the stick out of your butt that gives you trouble with mixing peanut butter and jelly as well...
