I grew up in Europe and the equivalent of that would be an open-faced Nutella sandwich. It is a slice of bread, buttered and smeared with a healthy layer of Nutella, which is a hazelnutty chocolate spread. I introduced my husband to that sandwich and he introduced me to the PB&J, since we didn't really have peanut butter in Europe back in the day. Since it has been literally been a PB&J at least once a day for the last week, I asked him which one won the sweet sandwich contest and surprisingly, Nutella is still the winner. I celebrated by dunking a teaspoon into the gooey mixture and licking it right off the spoon as if it was an ice cream cone. I should also mention that I make Nutella crepes at least once a month or so and am tempted to fry the PB&J sandwich, much to my husband's horror. How bad can it be?
I didn't take these pictures but felt like including them since I'm craving both right now.

I will of course have to try it if I can find here. Or maybe order it from the internet.
