Romney campaigns on peanut butter and honey sandwiches

Peanut butter and honey sandwiches are the preferred campaign trail food for Mitt Romney.

Romney and his new running mate Paul Ryan have kept up a rigorous campaign schedule since Romney's VP announcement on Saturday, but thanks to Romney's personal assistant the world knows they had time to stop for a sandwich.

Garrett Jackson, Romney's "body man," is the source of some of the most reliable behind-the-scenes information on the GOP ticket. He tweeted the first picture of Romney and Ryan together before the announcement. 

And he later tweeted a photo of Romney teaching Ryan his method for his favorite snack.

This is apparently something Romney shares with both his VP choices and other likely contenders for the position. On Tuesday, Jackson tweeted a photo of Romney sharing the same snack with Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio).

"We're peanut butter folks, if you can't tell already," Jackson told NBC News earlier this summer.
