Another version, make a french toast peanut butter and banana sandwich. My kids love them and it's all good stuff.

Peanut Butter, are you kidding me, at last something I know about eating.... I wonder if NinjaBowler knows how to eat Peanut Butter... Never mind... different thing...


I regularly eat


Peanut butter with:
Coffee, as a creamer/taste aid...
Celery
bread
cereal
ice cream topping
add to hot chocolate
add mustard to PB and dip for: chips/pizza/pretzel/etc
apples dipped in PB tastes like Carmel apples
I confess I knew I was addicted when two Christmas ago, my daughter, as a gag, gave me a 3 lb giant mega sized jar container of PB, and didn't open it till New Years night, and by Jan 13th it was gone....


Cosmo Magazine in an issue two years ago, called Peanut Butter, "A Super Food"

it was recently brought to my attention that there are places in the world where peanut butter is completely foreign and is not eaten, and it blew my mind. (i was stoned at the time.)

but since the topic came up, i really only love natural peanut butter, meaning just peanuts and salt ground up. the kind that you have to stir or it's dry. i recently got skippy's "natural" and it was almost no different from their regular stuff. it had added sugar and oil. fucking PALM oil. all that jif and whatnot is an abomination. it's full of molasses and corn syrup and weird oils and shit. smushed peanuts need no dressing up besides a little salt, and the gritty texture of the natural is a nice midpoint between crunchy and smooth.

this is how toast should be eaten:

butter the warm toast with real butter (not margarine). then scoop a glob of natural peanut butter on there (i like smucker's or the grind your own type). onto this glob squeeze a blob of honey. stir that shit around and spread it. the pb, butter and honey combine to create the height of deliciousness that will never be replicated in a jar. no gelatinous fruit spreads on my toast.

peanut butter toast and coffee. fuck yeah.

the question really is.. who are the weirdo's that are allergic to it? (sorry weirdo's :)
This is a huge problem unfortunately. I can't send peanut butter to school at all with my kids. One of their class mates has an off the chart allergy. To the point where even if it's on someone's breath, it could send her into AFS. This is a big issue for parents struggling just to make ends meet and trying to provide an inexpensive way to get protein into their kids. IDK what the correct answer is but I think if my kid were that allergic, I'd consider home schooling. It's a pretty big responsibility to place on the teachers to always have to monitor every kids lunch. Who's to say that one day a Grandparent who doesn't know better won't be babysitting and send a PB sandwich to school. They also say the allergy has become much worst in recent years because of people avoiding it. I don't quite understand it all but it sure sucks.

I personally love peanuts and all it's variations but my wife and son are allergic, we know enough to keep an eye out for signs of nuts in genreal but it's hard when you have no idea who was there before you.
What I mean by that is a relatable occasion for someone who doesn't drive or uses public transit.
I was on the bus one day and a woman gets on who is in an obvious rush for work and has with her a coffee and bagel with peanut butter {loaded on mind you} and I can smell it even though she's a good 6 seats away. Being a people watcher I've seen people eat on the bus before and it's usually a non issue, but this woman was ravenous and devoured her bagel in such a rush that she stared to cough, sending bits and pieces of peanut butter flying around. By now that whole area is contaminanted with an allergen whos make up has the potential to kill a select few of our population. I'm thinking about this and I'm stuck in a mire of what to do or say and is it my place to speak out.

As I leave I quietly mention it to the driver, he's looks at me and says "what it's only peanut butter"

OH god you bastards. I just ate then smoked, then started reading about peanut butter. Fuck me if i'm not hungry now.
Peanut butter and nutella taste like resee's on a spoon.
Peanut butter and pickle sandwich, I can dig it.
Peanut butter on waffles is one a buddy introduced me to.

i always get shit for saying so, but if a kid is so allergic that he goes into shock by smelling it on someone's breath, a school full of kids is probably not the best place for him to get an education. so the other kids can't even eat peanut butter on their morning toast before they go to school because their breath might kill a kid? or if there's a toddler at someones house who gets his peanut butter fingers on someone's pants, some other student could go into shock?

it's not that i don't feel for their situation, but putting a whole school on a pb ban because of a single kid is fucking vulgar. making exceptions for kids with disabilities is perfectly fine up to the point it starts effecting other kids. things like wheelchair ramps don't impact other kids at all. banning a staple food does. it's fine for dictating what the school itself may serve, but telling people what to feed their own kids is ridiculous.

the kid shouldn't be "denied" an education but he shouldn't get to dictate what kind of lunch another kid gets to bring to school. an allergy of that magnitude amounts to "special needs" well beyond what an ordinary school should be expected to accommodate.

Tastes just likes Reeses cups :) ♥

** makes 1 - 9x13 inch pan**

2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 1/4 cup peanut butter
1 cup butter, melted
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons peanut butter

Directions

In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, graham cracker crumbs, confectioners' sugar, and 1 1/4 cup peanut butter until well blended.

Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13 inch pan.

In a metal bowl over simmering water, or in the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the tablespoons of peanut butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Spread over the prepared crust.

Refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.

OK, here's one for ya...

Add peanut butter to Ramen noodles. You'll be surprised
I toss the salt pack and do curry, minced garlic, diced chicken, cayenne, course ground pepper, red chili paste, ramen noodles, then the last minute 2 tablespoons of crunchy peanut butter. Awesome!

I do the same with coconut milk for a pad thai peanut sauce for other dishes.

Loves me some PB
