Difficult to tell, since while Tolkien would have been well aware of the original meaning of "spoil" (loot), there's no reason to think that PBJ were, so in the movie-universe "not eaten" might have been intended.

"Why don't we search them and find out? We might find something we can use ourselves." "That's a very interesting remark," sneered a voice, softer than the others but more evil. "I may have to report that. The prisoners are NOT to be searched or plundered: those are my orders." "And mine too," said the deep voice. "Alive and as captured, no spoiling. That's my orders." _________________________ "In addition to unspoiled simply not being used in English to refer to spoils of war or plunder," Um, no. Quote:
