When my dad was little, they used to buy honey in solid form. My grandmother stored it in a screw-top jar, and would put it in a pot of water on the stove to melt it. (Much like they used to do with baby bottles.)
One day my Aunt Pat, my dad's older sister, made lunch for herself and her brother. Peanut butter and honey. She grabbed the melted jar of honey and made two delicious sandwiches. She put one on a plate, and went to hand it to my dad. The honey dripped out of the sandwich and down the plate. Pat used her finger to wipe up the drip and licked it off.
What she thought was the jar of honey was actually the jar of bacon grease that was stored in a similar screw-top container.
My grandmother had been ironing nearby, and watched everything without saying a word. She just laughed.
lmao...was it good?

Gnarly. My other grandmother loved peanut butter and tomato sandwiches. She made me try it once. It was worse than I thought. To each their own!
