**84** Balance, out of 100

The seven flavor axes of the whole sandwich, each summed across its layers. The shaded ring is the catalog's middle 80%; the small number under each axis is where this sandwich falls in the catalog. A shape that sits inside the ring is in the range most sandwiches live in; a spike past it is where this one stands apart.

## What each layer brings

| Layer                                 | Role    | Flavor and texture    | Points  |
| ------------------------------------- | ------- | --------------------- | ------- |
| peanut butter                         | protein | fat 4 creamy          | **+61** |
| jellyscored as Jam (jelly, preserves) | sauce   | sweet 5 acid 2 smooth | **+35** |

Points: what the Sandwich Score would lose if that one layer were left out, everything else the same. A negative number means the sandwich scores higher without it. Flavor runs 0 to 5 on each axis.

## Pairings

- **Peanut Butter + Jam (jelly, preserves)**: the original sweet-salt-fat treaty

## How to raise it

- Judged as a pb&j: texture contrast and thinness are not held against it.
- Between you and 90: a finished composition (0.09 short).
- Reads as a sweet build on purpose; scored as one.
