Anyone else love the stuff? I don't know if it's possible, but I think I have an addiction to it. I only eat the stuff without the sugar added, all natural. On toast, saltines with milk, or fresh whole wheat bread. But Damn, I love that stuff. Anyone else enjoy the same affliction?

mix a lil cinnamon with it and its even better

I feel the same way about beautiful women.

You need to try a PBJ that has been grilled.
Do it just like a grilled cheese.
My wife limits my intake, seems it causes a strange odor
But damn there good.

Good stuff, but only if they finish making it and don't stop half-way through the "butter-making" process of grinding up the peanuts.

Love cinnamon too. You ain't makin' this any easier.

Who doesn't? Maybe our POTUS.

Ranks right up there with milk for me. In a word, no.

For me, they're the perfect partners, along with a little fresh bread, or crispy crackers.

Besides bread it goes great with bananas or apples or chocolate.

There's a recipe for "tiger bars" where you melt white chocolate with peanut butter and milk chocolate with peanut butter, then swirl the mixture together and let it harden in the refrigerator. True decadence.

I'm gonna Google that one. I do like it with bananas, but never tried it with chocolate (other than Ree-cee cups). I'm gonna check out "tiger bars". They sound great.

I like to make my own, peanuts some peanut oil and a little honey and salt and you are eating homemade peanut butter in a few minutes.

in that case, make the sandwiches out of cinnamon bread

got a surplus down there?

When the jar is about half-empty, fill it up with syrup or honey and mix well.

There aren't many ways to make good peanut butter taste better � but these are good, if only for occasional variety.

(GUESS how I know!)

By the way, did you know that the highly esteemed researcher who gave us peanut butter and revealed the many benefits of peanut oil was Negro genius George Washington Carver of Tuskegee?

Dad knew him. Wish I'd been so fortunate. Dad regarded him highly, but I was far too callow at the time to appreciate his genius.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Washington_Carver

I of course did not know him, but I do agree that he was a genius. Too bad more blacks do not try to emulate him, instead of others. I have to disagree about the peanut butter with most here. I like mine without any additions except bread or saltine crackers. I also like cheddar cheese and saltine crackers. In fact I would rather eat bologna on a cracker instead of making a regular sandwich. miles

Had PB and raw honey swirled together this morning with eggs and wheat toast, good stuff, I eat it near daily.

I mix peanut butter with the "white" Karo Syrup and eat it on hot biscuits just out of the oven. Damn good stuff!

AAAAAHHH, Peanut butter.

peanut butter on vanilla waffers
peanut butter and grape jelly on the heal pieces of the loaf
peanut butter and bannana samich
peanut butter chewys, its a peanut butter browne my wife makes... (OMG)
peanut butter in oatmeal with a dab of honey

Nothing in my house but CREAMY Peter Pan. I won't touch that chunky crap.

Peanut butter is always fun to give to your dog, I get a big spoon then with my finger wipe it on the roof of their mouth. I laugh every time.

I like creamy and chunky PB. Prefer the natural stuff that you have to mix up.

Peanut-butter-and-crackers used to be Dad's favorite snack. He often made a heaping pile of 'em with a glass of milk a complete meal.

Have to confess that I've always liked 'em too � long before any of the debuts of the highly touted snacks that we see so much of, today.

Same with good cheddar on dry, crisp crackers.

Grandmother Fountain kept crackers at room temperature and humidity in her kitchen "safe," where they soon became almost mushy � unfit for human consumption, in my not-so-humble opinion.

The way I give pills to mine. miles

I agree, although in my younger, poorer days I would crumble saltines into milk and add sugar, and eat instead of cereal, which we seldom had. miles

Fo realz yo?

Wifey, Mom, and Granny made blackberry, peach, muscadine and fresh strawberry preserves and jams again this year, I have a multitude of goodness to go with my PB, how bout that? lol

Good stuff Gunner! Homemade Peach Preserves and Strawberry Jam are my weakness.

I'm a very lucky sap to say the least.

4-5 times a week on toast with a tall cold glass of chocolate milkor as a PBJ with home made Blackberry jam, it is whats for lunch a lot and breakfast frequently. Just gotta love the simple pleasures.

Extra crunchy PB on toasted, seeded rye with American Cheese - sliced bananas too if you want to get fancy.

Extra crunchy PB carefully applied to potato chips.

Best if you get raw peanuts and parch 'em just before you make 'em into peanut butter.

There's much more flavor in just-parched peanuts. I loved to watch Dad parch raw peanuts � a gourmet art with finer points that always eluded me. His only equal in that respect was an African woman in Jeddah (Saudi Arabia) with tribal scars all over her face. I often made a meal of a couple of bags of her freshly parched peanuts, which she parched on a tiny hibachi, right there on the sidewalk.

I keep a jar around for baiting mouse traps.
Give the dog a spoonful for amusement once in a while too.
Other than that, I don't have much use for the stuff.

Toasted english muffins, lots of extra crunchy Jiff peanut butter, and a little black raspberry all fruit jelly. Breakfast before work nearly every morning.

Especially fresh potato chips deep-fried in peanut oil just a few moments earlier.

I used to make special trips into town to buy cases of freshly fried potato chips from a local producer. Then Lay's bought him out, just to get rid of the competition. Then I made my own every night, 24-7-365. Not one ever survived the night.

Had a batch just a few minutes before my first stroke (1 July 2001) ended that pleasure for all time.

Well,,,, there goes my appetite.

I eat it in some fashion pretty much every single day. I'm not sure I'd survive without it.

Mash up real butter, peanut butter and good syrup together to eat with crackers or toast.

LOL, thats the breakfast of a farm work mule.

If it's any consolation FG, Wifey put on a giant crock pot of elk chili this morning, better?

Yup, I love peanut butter too. Crunchy is my preference, but smooth is okay. Anyone ever tried a huge dollop of peanut butter on a bowl of chocolate ice cream? Wonderful!

I love a BLT with PB instead of mayo.

If it was still 1950 I'd tell my wife that stuff will never cross the threshold.

( I had kid brothers and a kid sister, the PB stuff reminds me of what I used to find in their diapers )

Geno

A PBJ sandwich s one of life's nicer pleasures, and it's even better on hot toast. PB and cheese is another winner, even if it's a plastic-wrapped slice of fake cheese like my wife buys.

Far too many blacks today would call it 'white man's science' or some such. They'd refuse to learn what Carver learned instead of holding him up for the acclaim he deserves.

You'd a really scared me there Bart if you said beautiful men.....

Always keep some PB in our emergency rations and bugout bags. We really like the peanutbutter balls, or buckeyes. Make 'em for Christmas and they're always a big hit.

If you are a devotee of military MRE meals as I am, you will enjoy Peanut Butter Cannon Balls. Here's a pictorial recipe from a website I visit: LINK

(This website is often slow to load. Give it a minute...)

O man I'm jealous. Before my grandmother died she gave me a 2 or 3 big jars of homemade blackberry jelly, not a seed one in it. I was young then and I remember I ate PB&J and chocolate milk for every meal every day till it was all gone. What i wouldn't wouldn't give for anothe jar of that stuff, or for a little more time with her, she was a ham.

You should try:

KEN,best with fresh biscuits.

Ate a lot like that when a young one.
SOPPY is what Great-Granma called it.

spoon full stuck with lots of MM's keeps my wife happy

fo realz ho.

Yes,,, tell her I said thanks.

Just the thought of some Elk chili is soothing after the image of fried egg yolks, syrup, and PB "swirled" together.

Wifey does just that, she also uses Jif? chocolate peanut butter the same way, guess being a runner has it's own rewards, she can eat anything and doesn't get fat. lol

HAHA, hell yeah, I'll tell her, I had a big bowl of the elk chili for breakfast with some fritos and grated sharp cheddar for breakfast this morning.

Maybe I'm just weird, or maybe I'm just the only one to admit to it, but I like to eat it straight out of the jar. I get my own jar of Peter Pan, and nobody else is allowed to touch it.....

It makes a great ice cream topping.

Cupple of local stores have peanut butter "machines"

You dump in the whole shelled peanuts, turn it on and peanut butter comes out the bottom.

Great stuff! Wayyyy better than the store bought stuff in a jar!

Nothing wrong with chili for breakfast as long as there ain't no PB involved.

I fixin to fry me up a couple eggs, slather em with Franks red hot, and "swirl" em together with some cheese grits.

The PB will have to remain on the mouse traps though.

Waste of time and money. ^
The mice will never know the difference.

That'll work too, Wifey puts that scriachi? red rooster hot sauce on her eggs.

Of every jar I buy, at least half of it is et that way.

I love it, myself, but my metabolism doesn't love it, so I rarely if ever eat it anymore.

I like it with cinnamon and raisins. On cinnamon and raisin toast.

So, since we had this same discussion at work, what kind do you have on your shelf, creamy or crunchy.

As one of my co-workers said. The first argument he and his wife had when they got married was over peanut butter. He got out the peanut butter and said 'what is this?'. His wife said 'Peanut butter'. 'Yes' he said 'But its not crunchy. We always had crunchy in my house.' 'Well, we always had creamy in mine' she replied. He noted that you can have all the creamy kind you want if you come over to his house.

Jif extra crunchy.

That is all.
