Peanut butter

gmphmac · 06-05-2011, 23:03

I am so addicted to this stuff, it's unreal. I love to spread it as thickly as possible on brown bread, with sour cherry preserve on top. Mmm, just delicious!

Any other peanut butter addicts?

gemma-the-husky · 06-05-2011, 23:18

i prefer whole earth. i can taste the sugar in sun-pat.

why do the chisellers put sugar in peanut butter, is it just to save a few pence.

come on!

Thomas Poots · 06-05-2011, 23:37

Love the stuff!

Recently got a jar of PB&Jelly brought back from the states as well, it was amazing.

Clunk · 06-05-2011, 23:46

Love it !!

So much so that I have had to stop buying it (dieting - and it leads to too much bread consumption

).

Has to be crunchy too !!

simonmoore · 06-05-2011, 23:47

Skippy brand the smooth one spread thickly on thick brown bread. I sometimes put a banana cut up on it

labelsandlove · 07-05-2011, 09:05

Love love love peanut butter but I need to know where to get sour cherry preserve from

I would be in heaven with that spread on my peanut butter!

whackyracer · 07-05-2011, 11:46

I love it! I like it with jam on toast or crumpets, in smoothies with banana, honey and natural yoghurt and also in cookies.

ardwark · 07-05-2011, 12:21

Peanut butter and banana sandwiches are the biz.

Spooning it out of the jar isn't bad either. Is it?

degsyhufc · 07-05-2011, 14:14

Two slices of milk roll, lightly toasted.
One with crunchy peanut butter and the other with nutella. Put together to make a sandwich.

Sallysally · 07-05-2011, 16:22

Oh lord - this is making me so hungry!

I have had to stop the peanut butter habit because I need to lose some weight - and it has been a struggle. I could happily eat it out of the jar - but my very, very favourite is peanut butter and morello cherry or failing that, blackcurrant jelly. I used to eat 2 slices of homemade wholemeal and that combo virtually every day for a year.
Which is why, of course, I now have to lose weight!

degsyhufc · 07-05-2011, 16:47

Don't think I could eat it by the spoonful. It's just to gloopy and sticky

Sweet FA · 07-05-2011, 17:06

Yep, always get Sunpat crunchy which I spread on wholemeal or multigrain toast. Have never added anything into the mix but may try it with sour cherry preserve at OP's recommendation.

I buy it from Aldi. Look out for "Grandessa" - it's divine

Baking-Girl · 07-05-2011, 20:21

I love peanut butter on toast, it doesn't matter if it's crunchy or smooth. I am a big fan of Skippy peanut butter.

Bunnyfoo · 07-05-2011, 21:42

Skippys is the only peanut butter for me! So pleased that its for sale over here now. I would always buy in bulk when i was in the US.

Cstar2229 · 07-05-2011, 22:03

I like it with apricot jam as a change from strawberry
I like to put a dollop on celery
I also like it with vanilla ice cream

Chicklette · 07-05-2011, 22:13

Gotta be honest... I hate the stuff! It's all dry and icky and sticks to the roof of my mouth. I loathe all types of jam as well, it makes me feel sick. Maybe I had a bad experience with a PBJ sanwich as a child? I honestly don't know why I have such a problem with them :-/ I like peanuts on their own...

I agree it is slightly dry tasting sometimes, I always try to have a nice cup of tea with mine to wash it down.

*weeschmoo* · 07-05-2011, 22:21

I have just made peanut butter fudge - it's truly scrumptious.

That sounds delicious. Is it your own recipe?

You can buy it in Budgens. Was it Smucker's Goober?

stud u like · 08-05-2011, 00:31

Peanut Butter Smuckers Goober is my favourite. I have it for breakfast in America but can also buy it in places with a high American demographic in this country.

I also love peanut butter and salad cream.

noise747 · 08-05-2011, 00:49

Never tried it to be honest, but the idea of a peanut type paste on bread, don't fill me with glee.

I love roasted peanuts, but I think I will leave the peanut butter idea alone

ruthiebabie · 08-05-2011, 09:21

Have it on toasted granary for breakfast. I too could eat it from the jar however the disapproving looks of my team when I do that at my desk have put paid to it!

Porcupine · 08-05-2011, 12:29

Hate the stuff. Until about 2yrs ago i had never tried it, but because i love peanuts i thought i would give it a whirl. Yuk. It was horrid stuff.
