Celebrity recipes have a way of stopping us mid-scroll because it's intriguing to get a glimpse into how our favorite stars live and eat. One minute you’re minding your own business, and the next you’re deeply invested in what someone ate growing up and wondering if you should immediately recreate it in your own home. From Sophia Loren's spaghetti to the bluberry muffinsBlythe Danner makes for daughter Gwyneth Paltrow, there’s something exciting about learning what Hollywood personalities make and enjoy at home.That curiosity is exactly how I found myself standing in my kitchen, making a celebrity-approved sandwich and questioning every life choice that led me here.On a recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Julia Roberts casually revealed her favorite childhood sandwich, and it got a lot of reactions because it's not at all what you'd expect from someone as chic as Julia."GenX sandwich!!!" said a commenter on the Instagram clip. "Sounds like the sandwich of champions," added another. And a third IG user felt very seen by this combo. "I can't believe that you ate the same sandwich as me!!" they said.As someone who lives for a good food mashup and proudly embraces odd combinations, this one surprised even me. Initially, it felt like it might be a step too far, but my curiosity won out. And if Julia Roberts grew up loving it, who was I to argue?So I made it. Twice, actually! Here’s what this sandwich is all about, plus my honest thoughts about whether it deserves a spot in your lunch rotation.Related: I Tried 15 Different Brands of Potato Chips and Found a New Favorite??

What Was Julia Roberts’ Favorite Childhood Sandwich?
As Roberts shared on The Late Show, she preferred wheat bread because it didn’t stick to her teeth the way white bread did. The chips were added for texture and flavor, transforming an everyday PB&J into something unexpected.

Ingredients for Julia Roberts’ Childhood Sandwich
To make this sandwich, you need bread (wheat bread, like Julia, or sub in your favorite), peanut butter, jelly and sour cream and onion potato chips. On the show, Julia didn't specify what kind of jelly or type of peanut butter, so I went with grape jelly and creamy peanut butter.

How To Make Julia Roberts’ PB&J
Making this sandwich is as straightforward as it gets. Start by laying out two slices of bread and spreading peanut butter evenly on one side. On the other slice, spread your jelly of choice in an even layer.

Next comes the defining step. Take a small handful of sour cream and onion potato chips and gently crush them with your hands. You’re aiming for small pieces, not dust. Sprinkle the crushed chips generously over the peanut butter side, creating an even layer of crunch. You can also leave them larger, if you prefer.

What I Thought of Julia Roberts’ Favorite Childhood Sandwich
I approached this sandwich with serious skepticism. I love unusual food pairings and am a fan of sweet-and-salty combinations, but onion-flavored chips with peanut butter and jelly felt like a gamble (kind of like when I tried the viral peanut butter and jelly hard-boiled egg trend).

By the second bite, I was fully on board. By the end of the first sandwich, I was reaching for another slice of bread. Yes, I ate two.
Sometimes, the weird ones really are worth trying.
