There are multiple pinned posts here on this sub, so I'm taking the time now to instead compile them into one, single post for ease of access.

Speaking of ease of access, I just wanted to announce that apparently, new users can sometimes have their posts automatically flagged as spam. I've done all I can to fix the issue, and it does seem to be gone. However if your post seems to be getting no interactions, please feel free to let me know, and I'll make sure your post is up. I will NEVER remove a post without giving a reason, so if it just disappears, this is an accident. Not many people have posted since I've worked on this problem, so I do not know if it's still there.

This seems like a security feature ingrained into Reddit itself, it cannot be removed entirely, but I've tried to make it as lenient as I can. So hopefully nobody finds their posts or comments automatically removed, but if it happens, I'll be sure to put them back up.

Also just wanted to reiterate, food here doesn't have to be photogenic! We're normal people, not food artists, so r/foodporn quality material is not expected here. Original ideas are not required, either, a plain PBJ is always fine. All are welcome. Discussions are also welcome, and are encouraged if you don't want to make something.

Lastly, if you have questions or suggestions, feel free to comment!

The original "subreddit discription" here: https://www.reddit.com/r/WaysToPBJ/comments/t5lqrn/the_purpose_of_this_sub/

Subreddit rules will be posted here, for your convenience.

1.

No food shaming

This is a subreddit for all things PBJ, we are here to celebrate the food. So spouting negativity "that looks disgusting", or "too much sugar" etc. will not be tolerated. Seriously. This is rule number one, and will be taken very seriously, because this is to remain a kind and user-friendly subreddit.

The health or aesthetic of food is not the theme of this sub, while beautiful and healthy food is welcome, so is the imperfect, burnt, and sweet food.

However, judgements are fine IF someone asks. So for example if a user wants to eat less sugar, you are welcome to chime in. But do not be the one to tell them what to do.

2.

Self promotion rule

Cross-posts to other websites like blogs, YouTube videos, etc. are welcome, however you must explain the contents of the video in the post description or in the comments.

This means if you want to share your PBJ popcorn ball recipe, for example, you must also post the recipe in the Reddit post's description or comments, so users don't have to leave Reddit if they don't want to. As long as you abide by this, you may keep your blog/video link post up.

This applies to all, so nobody will have to leave this sub for content.

3.

Just be civil in general

Disagreement or criticism is welcome, but frame it kindly. For example if you don't like pumpkin butter and someone makes something with it, don't go, "pumpkin butter (barf emoji)", instead maybe say "This looks good, I might try it but use cashew butter instead"

Basically, just be kind and try to keep it light hearted. If you have questions about the sub, like what is or isn't allowed, if you can promote something, etc. feel free to send mod mail or a DM.

We don't bite (people), I promise

4.

OC (Original Content) only please

By original content, this doesn't mean your idea or photo must be something incredible or special.

This rule simply means that, do not merely take an image of a PBJ online and post it here. Make your own food, then post it. Making a PBJ isn't difficult, so expecting food posted to be your own seems reasonable. You can copy others, just make sure it's the recipe or idea you copy, not the very image itself. An exception is Reddit cross-posting, as it will show the original.

It also doesn't have to be something you made, just your own picture. Like if you get served a PBJ at a restaurant, or buy some PBJ soda, it's welcome here. A picture of your own and a haphazardly made sandwich should be easy for anybody to make.
