[carvul1]

[sagnbaby]

i love you!!

[HandyManny00Lobos]

Australia. Where blunty beat her.

[velosapien74]

Yeah I thought that. :)

[boobtbam]

Yeah I think I had already started high-school when I realized that really you meant jam (your jelly) not jelly (your jello) :]

[xxxrandomjamezxxx]

Hey nice video

[JrRandomnes]

Random people rock!"D

I love jelly!"D Nice video:D

[XxHeyItsEricaxX]

Wow...My random thoughts aren't nearly this interesting. I'm jealous. But you are awesome and this vid is hilarious.

[wheneever]

so sick wish u a speedy recovery

[SweetLittleLizzy]

That was amazing! I'm american, and I never thought about what other countries might call jelly/jam/jello.... geese no wonder they think we're crazy is right!!! Well... we are kinda crazy.

[mikma]

mikma was here

[projectblogsphere]

Now that is random!

And educational!

:-)

[itcouldneverhappen]

Great vid! It made my day. : ]

[Russelllynn32]

karz will you make me a peanut butter and jello sandwich.

[EFLJoelle]

nice vid! I am a kiwi and I DID wonder about that as a child, but not for very long!

[1GOD1JESUS]

you guys are nuts. lol!

[dougaholic]

I'm an Aussie and you're thoughts are 100% CORRECT! i thought Americans were eating jell-o (here in after "jelly") and peanut butter, i always thought like, why would u wait like 8 hours for jelly to set, only to mix it with peanut butter and put it in bread, i thought you'd have to eat the sandwich as soon as you made it! the penaut butter & jelly vide by Nicko (robjnixon) just changed my world :P great video by the way. sorry for such a long and drull comment.

[arthurdentau]

Hi katz, I love you, you make my day everytime I log on to check out what you have beeen up to. In regards to pb&j sandwhiches, I couldn't think of anything worse than PB with Jam/jelly whatever you want to call it. My fave is a fried egg on toast with Vegemite & cheese, kikass.lol

cya have a good day.

P.S By the way any chance you ever coming back to oz for a visit ?

[stuboy23]

As an Aussie it didn't take me long to figure out that a peanut butter and jelly sandwich was made with jam. But for some reason it took ages till I worked out that a jelly doughnut was just a jam doughnut.

[KiDeRproductions]

Yep... that's exactly what i thought children in the U.S. were doing... and yes, i thought you were all nuts :P

[katz20two]

LOLOL!! ... and you would still be right! ...about the second part ;))

working on any new films lately?

*HUGS to you and B*

[KiDeRproductions]

Not working on much at the moment no, just a TVC on an performing and creative arts festival at Deakin. Other than that just learning how to do motion capture and writing...

*HUGS BACK*

[4BetaMale2]

My mother would take bananas that where overly ripe and to get a little more live out of them add it to the Peanut butter. No jelly, just the bananas. It was really good!

[LondonWeekendLesbian]

...hmmm...

[mariposa0283]

theres banana jello? where? lol i want some.. mmm nanners.

[troy5690]

I wonder if it would run down your arms like a good hamburger juices do.

[los]

YES I Did think that!!!!!! LOL

[foxeleet]

yeah, you so lost me at the explanation part.

[katz20two]

*whew* and I thought I was the only one!

;)

[carmadillotanzen]

Oh I love how your brain works :)

[katz20two]

... and you aren't frightened?

*giggle*

[schwarzwaldvache]

When did you leave Australia? I didn't know you left...

[katz20two]

Yup! Graduated the end of last year, back in the states now.

[BigGCraziness]

Lol Im from Scotland and when I was younger I used to think it was peanut butter and jelly as in... y know our jelly which is your jello... but our jam is your jelly... I think, Anyway yeah I used to think it was quite strange lol :D

[katz20two]

LOL! and I'm thinking it is quite strange just rereading this comment over and over O.o

cheers!

[seize0the0night]

I'm in Australia and YES! I did wonder all the time about how on earth Americans managed to put "Jelly" (or what Americans would call Jello) on their sandwich...

and why they never mentioned what flavor of "Jelly" (or to Americans - Jello) went on their p,b&j sandwich!!!

And then one day went to the trouble of trying to make a p,b&j sandwich with Orange flavoured "Jello"....or to the rest of the world Jelly...and it didn't work so well.....

Also prolly doesn't help that i dislike Jam...

[katz20two]

O.O Orange flavoured? with peanut butter!! ug! that must have been awful!!

great story! thanks for sharing!!

[Mitya91]

*claps* :D

[katz20two]

*bows*  :D

[anarkian]

LMAO!

I thought that as a kid... I mean, jelly in a sandwich?

:D

[adamsaa]

agreed... i thought that too when i was down under

[Forcemaster2000]

That kind of logic makes my head hurt!

[katz20two]

lol!

katz20two video: take in small doses ;)

[soflabob]

banana jello?

sure why not?

And I thought I was the only one who had these funny- off topic -random thoughts!

It's no wonder I can ever get any sleep - ever!!

[katz20two]

lol! sleep... it is sooo true! and everyone blames it on the coffee ;)

[adamsplanet13]

Culture is so funny jell-o jam jelly boot trunk its all kinda the same. You totally woke up in the middle of the night to do this video didnt you??? Random thoughts come to me in the middle of the night.

[katz20two]

middle of the night... always.

some of my best videos are thought up just before I go to sleep.

um... then I forget them in the morning ;)

[dherae]

Hmm...makes one think. Jelly...jam...jello again.

[vclamp]

What's wrong with peanut butter jell-o sandwiches?

I'm thinking Chocolate jell-o would go well with peanut butter...

[katz20two]

oooo... chocolate jello might work! would be more like a dessert huh?

[GramsandPapi]

Too funny! Love this one! Thanks,Grams

[eclipsedeyes]

Other confusing foodstuffs (then) twinkies, oreos, and hershey bars. Oreos are sold here now but not when I was little. I ate a Hershey Bar when I went to the US last year and determined that it had a slight aftertaste of vomit. What's with that?

[katz20two]

Hershey Bar... yeah, it is the wax they put in it to keep it from melting too quickly. not the best chocolate... certainly nothing compared to Cadbury :)

[eclipsedeyes]

As an Australian, I can say that yes, when reading "The Babysitters Club" I always thought that the girls were eating sandwiches with jelly/jell-O on them! And I had no idea what Jell-O was, cos they seemed to be eating that all the time too. Crazy Americans.

[katz20two]

LOL! yup... If I thought we were eating that, I would think we were nuts too :)

[xXtarzoXx]

Haha this made me laugh!

I'm from Australia and yes when I was little I though you put peanut butter and jelly (well your jell-o) on sandwiches which I thought was a little weird! Hmm maybe one day I should try a peanut butter and jam (jelly) sandwich? I have an American pen-pal and sometimes the differences we have such as seasons and everything can be very confusing!

:)

[AndrewAtoZ]

Bill Cosby must be an Aussie, then... ;)

[katz20two]

Fantastic comment!!!

[JohnnyStorm2007]

Echoes of "Small is Tall"...love it.  5/5.

[katz20two]

cheers Johnny! that's the second reference to that one... huh? my random confusedness must be the key ;)

[Dave256onYT]

This is wonderful!!! I'm subscribing...

Excuse me while I go untangle my mind :-)

[katz20two]

Hey there Dave!!!

Thanks so much!! welcome to the maddness! the weather is quite nice here :)

[EasyRaoul]

"peanut butter jelly time!"

"peanut butter jelly time!"

"peanut butter jelly time!"

(my ring tone ATM)....

OMG... I miss Butterfingers and Reese PB cupcakes over here... Aaargh!

[fredlucytheo]

So is peanut butter and jelly sandwich really peanut and jam *confused*

[katz20two]

That is exactly correct!

Peanut Butter and Jelly in the States would translate in Australia as Peanut Butter and Jam. ;)

[OpiumKoolaid]

So when the Aussies see a bodacious girl walk by, they must say, "That must be Jello, because jelly doesn't shake like that?"

[katz20two]

lol! actually I think it would be:

"That must be Jelly, because jam doesn't shake like that."

[ChristopherMast]

You need more sleep :)

[katz20two]

meh! sleep! highly overrated! *giggle* this comes from the man making a video every day for the month of May... and you call me insane ;))

[ALittleDramaNeverHur]

BAHA!

[lcorinth]

The difference is but a trifle.

[ChristopherMast]

*rimshot*

[KateLouise]

haha I get it...... wow its really late at night..... oh dear random thoughts

[katz20two]

LOL! touché.  very well spoken!

[choppa79]

omg katz, i really did think this...

i was like "and what happens when the jelly (jello) melts?) and why would u want that on a sandwich? hahahah

and i finally found this out when i asked someone in yahoo chat when i was 20yrs old.... so i wondered all that time...

[zbowling]

good to see you making videos again.

[fasterkillmaddy]

ahahah i too tried to put jelly(jello) on a peanut butter sandwhich as a kid. Wasn't very nice lol but in the movies it always seems to be purple? so i tried grape jelly/o with my peanut butter sandwhich. ewey

[MentalHygienist]

In Canada we have jam, jelly and Jell-o. I always figured the difference between jam and jelly was the gelatinousness level. The more gelatinous substance is jelly, whereas the more densely fruity one is jam. And then there's this imported lemon custard from Scotland. Mmm... Lemon custard. So good on toast.

[katz20two]

lol! I love lemon custard in donuts :D though boston cream donuts are my favorite :) couldn't find them in Tassie though :(

[7r1663rh4ppy]

LMAOO  i love you

[manduh13]

HAHAHA!

That's amazing!

[selftitled3418]

... am i the only one who wants to experiment and make a peanut butter and jello sandwich??

great vid.

[katz20two]

do it! post it as a comment! I'm too afraid to actually give it a try! you might need to mash up the jello though, the texture would be just odd :p

[dctcool]

Yep thats what I use to think when I was a kid I actually once tried to put jelly ... err ... jello in a sandwich with peanut butter once to try it out cause it sounded cool,

left quite a mess

[katz20two]

Hey there dctcool! mess: I can only imagine!!

[Almuric7]

LOL! Funny video,

I'm in England and we often say America and England are two common countries separated by a single language!

[katz20two]

another favorite comment! props!

[Cooreyc]

I saw this and thougt about your "small is tall"-video.

Like your wordplayings (sorry, my english is not quiet good)

[katz20two]

your english is great! who says we can't make up words in english too? I think "wordplayings" fits perfectly!

[pernoy]

You have a good Point like tea here is a drink but in the UK it is a meal.

[katz20two]

YES!!! so many time's I was asked if I wanted some tea and I kept thinking, naw, I'm not really that thirsty. :p

[jessily0425]

Haha, this is exactly the kind of thing I would think about :)

[bubbabrand]

i often wonder if others wonder as much as i do. good to see theres at least one more

[katz20two]

nice comment!!! a fav of this video!

[RacheyB87]

Im an aussie, and yes. I thought you were using "jelly" on your pb & js, until i came there to visit some friends, and asked if they could make me one cause i really wanted to try it... I was kind of disappointed to find out it was just normal jam... sigh lol

[katz20two]

wow! so it does happen! I would totally think the same thing!! lol! and did they laugh when you explained it to them??

[RacheyB87]

Wow you responded :D and yes they did lol they told me they were wondering why i thought pb and j was a weird combination lol

[robjnixon]

lol, i love peanut butter and jam sandwiches lol, i mean jelly haha

Nicko xoxoxox

[katz20two]

Nicko!! there's a challenge for you! how would you manage an actual peanut butter and jelly/jello sandwich?

Is it even possible to make it palatable? If anyone can do it I know you can!!!

Love your Snack Attack! video by the way, your side not "hard boiled egg tip" worked beautifully this morning for breakfast!! Thanks!!!

[robjnixon]

I make them often actually, i like them :) When i finished with this series of healthy meals I will make one for you :)

Nicko xoxoxox

[katz20two]

Seriously??? that is hilarious! and yeah! that would be awesome if you could, for a fun one ;))

Cheers!

[JimmerSD]

I like those little marshmallows that they put in Jello...eh..jam.. err jelly... Wait! They don't call them marshmallows do they..

Now I'm confused... Aww heck.

[katz20two]

LOLOLOL!!!

I don't know what they call marshmallows... I think it is marshmallow... but cookies are biscuits ;) that took awhile to explain... "what is a cookie?"

O.o um...

[czechwindboy]

I love banana jello

[Mainyard48]

"... maybe banana."

No, the kind with shredded carrots in it!

[katz20two]

oh my goodness!

I know the exact kind you are talking about!!! *gag* what were they thinking???

[VioletKitty411]

Ah the mysteries of the common language that divides us!!!

[katz20two]

Yes! but how lovely comedy brings us back together =)

[thisiscd]

Haha, wow. XD But, I'm now craving peanut butter and jelly. =O

[katz20two]

LOL!  let me know how that works out. the texture just has to be weird!

oh wait.. you mean jelly as in jam or jelly as in jello?

[gyloir]

No Jello? How can they live without never having jello, a travesty. In my hospital stays jello was about the only thing they'd give me that i actually looked forward to and didn't taste like it was made of cardboard.

Speaking of jam, have you ever had homemade blackberry jam?

My grandma used to have us pick some for her when they came out and then she'd make up jars of it, delicious.

[katz20two]

oops! sorry! actually they do have Jello in a way... they just call it Jelly instead. Hence the confusion =)

any homemade jam makes me happy *beam*

[SeanSmash]

yay! another video to make me smile. thank you.

[katz20two]

you are very welcome Sean

[ssjautobot]

yeah, no wonder the world thinks we are nuts

[kalaway]

I though our jam was their preserves. Like our jelly with junk in it is technically jam.

I can just imagine asking for jelly on a biscuit and receiving a cookie with a big blob of jello on top :)

[katz20two]

LOL! that last image still has me laughing!

[ChaosHammock]

:) You're awesome.

So, let me get this straight....Their Jell-o is our jelly, but they don't have OUR kind of Jell-o? And both our jelly and jam is their jam?

Gaaahhh!

[katz20two]

OHHH!! Soooo Close!

One thing. They don't have Jell-o. It is called Jelly instead of Jell-o. 

But yes, our Jelly & Jam is their Jam.

LOL! clear as mud now?

Thanks!!

[ChaosHammock]

Haha, okay. Thanks!

[slimjimpui]

And the term "jelly donut"(jam doughnut in ye olde english talk) does rather lead one to suspect you chaps favour bovine matter in your sugary treats. each to their own!

[katz20two]

Jelly Donut!!! That's right!!! *thinks* eeeeew... nope. the texture would just be soooo wrong.

lol! cheers!

[slimjimpui]

*hehe* I can imagine the advertising execs trying to work out how to indorse "the squelchy donut"

[factorblank]

Haha! I just had a PB&J for lunch.(rasberry jelly, not jello!). Peanut Butter and banana sandwiches are good too!

[katz20two]

lolol! your comment inspired me to make a peanut butter and banana sandwich... yum.

thank you!

[kardez13]

ohhhh.

you need to grill the bread.

then add the peanut butter.

then slice some banana on it.

THEN!

add honey....

hmmmmm.

grilled peanut butter, banana, and honey combo.

it's the best.

=)

[katz20two]

ooooo! honey! that is a great idea! I will definitely add that next time!

Thanks!!!

[xVancha]

That makes so much more sense...I've always had this mental image of Americans spreading mashed up jello (well, jello to you, jelly to me) onto their peanut butter...similar to the consistency of marmalade...(the jello, not the PB).

So hang on...you're actually eating peanut butter and *jam* sandwiches? I can't imagine that tasting any better. If anything I'd have thought it'd be worse....

Now I'm tempted to try a peanut butter and jello sandwich.

[katz20two]

oh!! you did think we were eating the jello and pb.

lolol!! yup... strawberry or raspberry jam are favorites of mine... you should give it a try :)

I took a lil' sandwich to school in AU one day before I knew all of this... a students asked me if I was eating a peanut butter and jam sandwich. I casually responded yeah... he then smiled, he thought it was "cool" to know it was actually true we ate it. :)

[Syntox]

You make-ah me brain hurt!

[katz20two]

lol! head explody?

[Zublime75]

hehehehe the differences between countries can be really confusing lol

[katz20two]

tell me about it!!!  toss an accent in and I'm lost for months :)

[insomniac4ever]

yet another great vid from Kat!

[katz20two]

thanks again! hmmm... still not sleeping eh? *wink*

[Arthur40TwoDent]

Lol, some great random thoughts. Jelly = Jelo

Jam = Jelly

[katz20two]

exactly!

[adrianRK]

Im not from the US but I would love to try peanut butter and jelly some times. I love peanut butter and chocolate :D

[katz20two]

it is actually quite good. I prefer strawberry or raspberry jam/jelly.

I agree!! peanut butter and chocolate and for me sometimes peanut butter and banana or apple are always a good treat too ;)

[funkwurm]

Ok, the helpdesk thing was no problem, but now I'm confused...

Jelly is what you put on bread, often strawberry or blueberry flavoured, right?

What's this jello you speak of then?

[katz20two]

LOL!! sorry koos!

Yes. That is our Jelly and also our Jam. Made from fruit. The difference between Jelly and Jam is whether it has seeds or not (preserves etc... at least that is what I was taught).

now... Jell-o or Jello is a brand name that stuck for artificial flavored Gelatin... (like semi-solid koolaid) um... I'll see if I can find a pic and drop it on twitter for you ;)

[funkwurm]

Thanks Angela, I noticed the tweet indeed. We call it jam either way.

What you tweeted I would've first called pudding, and after getting weird looks I would've explained its the transparent-ish kind of pudding until someone suggests I might mean gelatin, which is indeed close to the Dutch word for it.

We don't have koolaid here, but I'm guessing it's a lemonade, right?

O how YouTube opens up possibilities to explore the wonders of the world, eh? ;)

[supervillan]

lol i could respond wth some of my random thoughts XD, buy eayh banana jellow and penut butter sandwich sounds tasty

[katz20two]

oooo... tooo weird. simply because banana jello is more banana flavored as opposed to actual banana's. ;)

[supervillan]

shh thats the worlds greatest secret :P

[elrodjones]

PBB's! Add some bacon and you have Elvis' favorite food. He wasn't from Australia but I think he was an alien... Randomly thinking, of course.

[katz20two]

Peanut Butter and BACON??  eeeep! seriously?

[elrodjones]

That's the way I heard it.......they did find him all plugged up you know. (eeww)

[KBuzz07]

that must have been a pain in the ass to say... lol but it makes sense

[katz20two]

lol! yup!  talk about talking in circles :)

[ae01r]

I have random thoughts too

[katz20two]

touché

[karaxxjolly]

XD I love you Kat! ♥

[katz20two]

Thanks! love how you can put an actual heart in your comment!!
