    No, the title is not clickbait. Can a sandwich ACTUALLY make you a better athlete? Specifically, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. When I found out that many NBA players ate a PB&J sandwich - PB&J adjacent item - before a game, I had to figure out WHY! Theorists, this goes beyond sports and nutrition. This is about validating all of the PB&J sandwiches I've eaten over my life. Get ready to play ball!

    As soon as I heard “PB&J” I was like, “yeah, absolutely makes sense.”
    TL:DW
    Peanut butter is an extremely good source of protein and long-term energy, jelly and bread are great sources of sugar & short-term energy.
    Also, Matt didn’t mention it, but a PB&J is also a fairly light meal, so reduced risk of cramps compared to, say, pizza which would have a similar effect otherwise.

    • @truekurayami
      @truekurayami 3 года назад +17

      The bread part of the brake down for short/long term energy is debatable in practice just because some breads lean more towards the complex/long-term side, though they are usually a "heavier" option but as a single sandwich or two that usually won't become a problem.

      YMMV.
      I think the crust (chewy, plz!) is the best part, followed by the meat(s), sauce, and then the cheese is just there to hold it together.

      It definitely depends on the pizza imo. I'd say Red Baron pizzas everything is top class on those to the point any of them can be enjoyed separately, but they're also great together. Some pizzas have really good crust and sauce, but bad cheese or some variant of this.

    • @rimurutempest4945

    Once I started this episode, and when Mat mentioned the superstitions with athletes, I theorize it may be a nutritional benefit but mostly it's a mental thing, a placebo effect that helps them and also reminds them of simpler times as kids, a sort of optimistic start to an intense athletic match. Since if you're mentally feeling good, you're probably going to perform better than if you're upset or not feeling well mentally that game. In the age old adage "gotta getcha head in the game"

      It happens to be this mixture of nutritional bonuses that MatPat noted, as well as being absolutely dead-simple to make and just as if not even simpler to eat, making it a perfect mix of helpful, practical, and sprinkled with a little bit of magic.

    This doesn't change the fact that there are 40 million penguins in the Southern hemisphere, so realistically if all of penguins in the southern hemisphere band together and surprise attack Swaziland after crossing South africa, they could invade the country of Swaziland with a 40-1 ratio, as there are only 1 million people living in the country of Swaziland. Therefore, with a bit of planning, advanced logistics, a few years of training and guerilla tactics, if all the penguins in the southern hemisphere banded together to attack Swaziland they could defeat the nation and create their own penguin empire, a terrifying thought isn't it.
