Peanut Butter Jelly Time was released by the Buckwheat Boyz in the early 2000s and became famous through a Flash animation of a dancing banana chanting the hook. The clip spread across forums, eBaum's World and early YouTube as one of the internet's first viral music memes, later quoted in Family Guy. Its absurd repetition and cheap, joyful energy made it endlessly remixable. Creators still pull the ten-second chorus for food jokes and throwback edits because almost everyone recognizes it within a second.

This ten-second clip captures the unforgettable hook from Peanut Butter Jelly Time, the early-2000s dance track by the Buckwheat Boyz. A squeaky, high-pitched voice chants peanut butter jelly over a simple, bouncy hip-hop beat with a wobbling bassline, repeating the phrase until it sticks in your head. It sounds silly, hyper and instantly recognizable, even to people who never heard the full song.
