Even before appearing in the iconic flash animation 'Peanut Butter Jelly Time' the dancing banana had gained considerable internet fame as a popular emoticon on many forums and message boards. By the time Peanut Butter Jelly Time hit the web in the early 2000s, the dancing banana had already achieved more than most memes do in a lifetime. Still, the fateful pairing of the pixelated banana's dance moves and DJ Chipman's Peanut Butter Jelly Time propelled the banana to Internet immortality. PBJT has been referenced many times on television (most notable on Family Guy) and was the inspiration for countless other videos including Peanut Butter Federline and Fat Kid Dancing to Peanut Butter Jelly Time.
