creamy or crunchy?
depends on how many teeth you have left……
and whether or not you have diverticulosis…… :}
Creamy.
Chunky is stuff that was pulled before complication.
^^^ completion
CRUNCHY, ON TOASTED ENGLISH MUFFINS, IRISH BUTTER, HONEY, BOYSENBERRY JAM
I CAN EAT HALF A DOZEN, WITH SAME NUMBER OF COORS, LOTS OF MARIACHIS WEARING SOMBREROS ADDS A GREAT TOUCH
PERFECT FRIDAY NIGHT
Reese’s & Haagen Das ice cream are %100 proof that chocolate & peanut butter are made for each other. Period
As for crunchy? Yes, because sometimes you feel like a nut…
Creamy, we’re not animals.
Yes
I had an unopened jar of Peter Pan peanut butter in the pantry that was 5 years expired. It tasted fantastic. Ate the jar in two sittings using only a knife…
^^^ proof that chijaujau’s don’t care
I rarely eat it. I’m okay with either version and I like chocolate w peanut butter.
However.
I can’t stand the smell of peanut butter when it has been left on a plate or spoon that has been sitting around for several hours. It smells like a dirty ashtray + gym shoes. 🤮
Yes to both, but different virtues. Creamy for flavor, chunky when you need some chew. Chocolate is okay but most combinations have too much sugar which blows out the flavor on both parts.
Creamy (I aged out of chunky), preferably natural.
Chocolate makes everything better.
I learned to appreciate peanuts as part of a savory dish when I was in Ecuador. In fact, the meal on my first flight to Guayaquil (on an Eastern L1011, beautiful plane), was llapingachos smothered in a delicious peanut sauce (look it up).
Besides the possibility of triggering anaphylactic shock, peanuts might contain aflatoxins. Everything can kill you.
Reason why I don’t like Milky Way or Three musketeers it’s because I need some type of resistance to my bite. biting into a mushy candy bar is gross. biting into a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with no crunch is also gross. creamy peanut butter is un-American and unholy.
I eat both with relish… I add chocolate when I want to be adventuresome… At times it just depends on my day and what jam I have to put it with
Crunchy – with grape jelly and milk.
I prefer Adam’s peanut butter, usually creamy but I will also eat crunchy peanut butter. Peanut butter and raspberry jam sandwiches are the best.
either works, as long as you butter the bread before you spread the jam or peanut butter, that way it doesn’t stick to the roof of my mouth, and it chews better and has better flavor.
Yes.
In my ‘youth:’ creamy peanut butter, raspberry jam, mayonnaise and banana on good country white bread. Though I don’t eat them anymore. Back then, I could burn that up in an hour playing ball.
Creamy but not too smooth.
Creamy peanut butter… Yep.
Roasted peanuts… Yep.
Roasted peanuts smashed until they are a lumpy paste that’s not even close to creamy…Nope.
If you’re gonna put a crunch in your peanut butter then put in something that’s not already there… Bacon.
I like smooth. Teddy’s natural smooth, salted.
And I use my grandmother’s old family recipe for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
Something about peanutbutter that both scares and also impresses me-
Has anyone- anyone- ever successfully removed the seal from a large jar of Teddy’s in a single piece? The glue they use for the seal is amazing. I think it is the same as what they used to hold the tiles on the space shuttle. I would buy what ever it is and use it around the house to fix things. But it also scares me, as I wonder if I am eating some of it, somehow. And I don’t like plastic jars for PB, as getting the last little bit of the PB probably results in increased microplastic intake. I save the jars, with some PB still inside, and give them to my dogs to lick out on rainy days. I’ll have my usual PB, no jelly, on whole wheat toast this morning. And they’ll be two doggos, watching me at every bite, waiting for their piece at the end.
as far as the chocolate thing-
a friend, who is also a good cook, once told me: you can improve any recipe by adding either more chocolate of more garlic, but never both.
Aardvark,
Exactly the same here. Crunchy when I don’t read the label properly.
BENITO,
Just out of curiosity, LAGER, ALE, or GUINNESS with your CORNFLAKES?
I remember “crunchy” was a fad back in the 70s. I grew out of it after a jar or two.
I just bought some “slightly” crunchy peanut butter with no added vegetable oil or sugar. I can’t recall the brand. I didn’t realize it was chunky when I grabbed it off the shelf. I can deal with it.
Chocolate and peanut butter are meant for each other.
Have you ever eaten a One Pound bag full of circus shell (unsalted or salted) Peanuts for breakfast?
I have.
I prefer crunchy, but either will do on a halved apple.
Mix peanutbutter, Sesame oil and sriracha sauce and heat it up. Pour our stir fried chicken and veggies. your welcome
Creamy almond butter……
That sounds good, I would eat that with chicken stir fried veggies and brown rice.
Or pork or beef as well.
Wy wife puts creamy peanut butter on bread at dinner. Loves chocolate with peanut butter (Reeses)
Me, I like a PB&J sandwich with a glass of milk for lunch sometimes.
For breakfast I like an English muffin toasted dark, then put peanut butter on it. In both cases it’s gotta be caaaaa runchy!
I can’t go to a baseball game without getting a bag of salted peanuts in the shell and a beer or two or three. Nine innings of bliss especially if we win!
Warmed peanut butter over ice cream. Delightful.
Neither.
GMO’s destroyed the natural peanut and modified it for huge yields for peanut farmer Jimmy Carter. This has caused people, mostly children, to develop serious allergy reactions that can be near fatal. Another example of how man has altered what G-d created
Hell, I saw where Jif is now making “Chocolate Peanut Butter”. Saw it in Food Lion a couple of days ago. But as far as combining the two I don’t think they can beat Reeses…
Chunky Smucker’s that’s just peanuts and a bit of salt. I like it on waffles with strawberry jelly, but oatmeal whole wheat bread will suffice.
Kudos to H.E.B.
Made in Texas
Crunchy (Smooth if Crunchys sold out)

now, I still crave those Alabama / Georgia Valencia mini-me Peanuts. Tasty. Just can’t catch ’em round these parts.
Happy Saturday
On a side note, peanut butter has changed a lot.
As a kid in the 60’s anytime peanut butter sat for awhile the oils would separate and you’d have to stir it up.
Now they add all kinds of emulsifiers and who knows what else.
Can sit for years and never separates.
Mm – Interesting. I have to tell a peanut butter fiend at my house about the ice cream thing.
I used to spread peanut butter on chocolate chip pancakes when I was a kid.
Only faggots eat creamy peanut butter
Tuna sandwich: peanut butter on wheat bread- keeps the bread from getting all mushy.
Breakfast sandwich: peanut butter on toasted English muffler, add egg, bacon, sausage, cheese etc.
There are few things as delicious as a peanut butter and bacon sandwich. With crisp bacon, it doesn’t matter if the PB is smooth or chunky. Try lightly toasted and buttered seeded rye bread for extra scrumptiousness.
^^^ with honey.
@Different Tim — I’ve also been eating peanut butter, banana, and honey sandwiches most of my life, too. They’re almost as good as the PB&B above. It would seem almost traitorous to move the honey over.
But that got me thinking that a PB and bacon with a little maple syrup might be worth a try…!
Post cancer I don’t eat any of this shit. Meat and salad. That’s all I got.
All of these comments without mentioning Elvis….Peanutbutter, banana and bacon…There was a greek restaurant later near me that was owned by the guy who first gave it to Elvis…
My Dad had his chemo treatments with a former Denver cop who was called on when Elvis flew to Denver and he flew in a lot. He also knew the name of the Denver newscaster who gave her “all” to Elvis….Elvis went to any port in the storm when the gal was willing and freaky….
