peanut butter is gross. i buy it sometimes just to be curious and end up throwing it away after one loaf.

Peanut butter comes in loaves where you live?

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Never tasted it tbh.

after i ate one loaf of bread with peanut butter on it. i didn't know how to express myself correctly, i don't know the right words i'm sorry.

 

[Wallach]

Call me a stupid tasteless American like you always do, I don't give a fuck, I LOVE peanut butter and jelly! Man, I could eat PB&J sandwiches every day.

Fuck that, this is their damage to rationalize. Peanut butter is awesome.

 

[Meus Renaissance]

Peanut butter and jelly is actually peanut butter and jam. No, the Americans do not put this...

...in their toast like we assumed for all these years

 

[jaypah]

Fuck that, this is their damage to rationalize. Peanut butter is awesome.

*sticky PB highfive*

 

[spats]

I bought a jug of peanut butter once because americans eat it so it has to be good.

I think I ate one sandwich with pb and never touched the shit again. It's fucking disgusting.

 

[qazqaNii]

Sorry, peanut butter tastes like sh*t! Makes my throat go dry!

 

[Shiggy]

Peanut butter tastes awful. Seriously.

We've got Nutella.

 

[SolidusDave]

I'm from Germany and I put peanut butter together with Nutella on my toast.
It's awesome!

Then again, I very rarely eat breakfast or toast.

 

[Meus Renaissance]

Peanut butter on toast and a hot cup of tea is fantastic breakfast

 

[Combichristoffersen]

Peanut butter tastes pretty good, but it's unhealthy as all fuck, so I'll just stay away, thank you.

 

[JessicaPadkin]

I'm British and all, and I'm usually down for some wholesome American-mocking, but peanut butter and jam sandwiches really are pretty amazing.

One of the contestants in the most recent ep of MasterChef made a peanut butter and jam macaroon. It looked so fucking good...

 

[ffdgh]

Pb&j is timeless. I enjoy to eat one every now and again.

 

[Magypsy]

I can recommend cucumber with peanut butter

Serve it either as a snack (cucumber slices with peanut butter on top) or as a salad!

(be sure to get the crunchy kind!)

 

[SmartBase]

I've had smooth peanut butter and one with bits, I don't know how you people eat that shit.

Dude, you've got to eat it with jam and a cold glass of milk. The combination of the sweet with the mild, nutty, salty peanut butter and a cold glass of milk....fucking hits the spot.

Peanut butter is the perfect complement to any sweet flavor to help balance the sweetness. Peanut butter and apple wedges is another classic.

Peanut butter tastes pretty good, but it's unhealthy as all fuck, so I'll just stay away, thank you.

It's not that bad if you get the all-natural varieties. Don't get the ones with hydrogenated oils.

 

[0OoO0]

It looked so fucking good...

There is no pic in that link

*is disappointed*

 

[Choke on the Magic]

Peanut butter and Nutella are awesome. Mix them together and you will find it makes a delicious sandwich. Especially with sliced bananas.

 

[zoukka]

I wish people would stop calling Nutella "peanut butter". It's liquid fucking chocolate.

 

[Raw64life]

Peanut butter is awesome. Nutella is awesome. Why not have both?

 

[Spiffy_1st]

Do we know why jam is called 'jelly' in America?

 

[PjotrStroganov]

I wish people would stop calling Nutella "peanut butter". It's liquid fucking chocolate.

Nobody calls it peanut butter?

It's hazelnut chocolate cream.

 

[Combichristoffersen]

It's not that bad if you get the all-natural varieties. Don't get the ones with hydrogenated oils.

Wouldn't it still be fairly high on carbs, fat and energy though, at least compared to the boiled, sliced ham I usually eat on my crips bread?

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Anyone who calls Nutella peanut butter should not be in your life

 

[xenist]

Wrong. Wrong.

 

[xptoxyz]

Butter and jelly would just make a sloppy, mushy sandwich by lunchtime.

Maybe not pack a sandwich of sweet foods for lunch at all?

 

[edgefusion]

Maybe not pack a sandwich of sweet foods for lunch at all?

I was thinking the same thing. It seems wrong to be giving your child that for lunch.

 

[chaosblade]

Do we know why jam is called 'jelly' in America?

Jam and jelly are two different things. Jam is made from actual fruit while jelly is made from just juices for the flavor. You can buy both here.

 

[Tha Robbertster]

Sate is much better anyway.

 

[yonder]

I'm European and I eat peanut butter almost every day, usually mixed into oatmeal. PB&J made with toast is pretty great, though. Don't like nutella that much; it's too sweet.

 

[Shiggy]

Then again, I very rarely eat breakfast or toast.

I can see why

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

Jam and jelly are two different things. Jam is made from actual fruit while jelly is made from just juices for the flavor. You can buy both here.

American Jelly is rest-of-the-world Jam. American Jello, or Jel-O, or however they spell it, is rest-of-the-world Jelly. They have it different because they are stupid and wrong.

 

[NinjaFridge]

And they think the plural of Lego is legos. Goddamnit America!

 

[Mister0079]

i eat peanut butter with nutella

 

[7threst]

All hail Pindakaas

This. Pindakaas rules!

 

[iddqd]

I remember eating it for the first time in my twenties, I'm now "used" to it.
But it's still something pretty much no one in my family likes or would buy.

If you dont grow up with it, the gap gets filled with jelly/nutella/cheese/sausage.

 

[braves01]

Euros need to give up their Old World arrogance and just deal with the fact that peanut butter is the new thing.

 

[cbox]

Stop comparing Nutella to PB, one is sweet and the other savory.

I love both, especially chunky natural PB.

 

[shanshan310]

Well, US peanut butter does taste awful and synthetic compared to the stuff here. Much sweeter.

 

[WanderingWind]

You people have some odd ideas about America. We have Nutella, too. We also aren't handed a national loaf of bread stamped with a soaring bald eagle, either. Same with peanut butter.

And if you don't like peanut butter, then you're basically the worst person on earth.

 

[zoukka]

Wrong. Wrong.

Take a can of nutella in your hand. Then a can of peanut butter on your other hand. Read the ingredients and nutrients labels and compare them.

 

[chaosblade]

American Jelly is rest-of-the-world Jam. American Jello, or Jel-O, or however they spell it, is rest-of-the-world Jelly. They have it different because they are stupid and wrong.

I was just referring to America since that's what he was asking about.

And I have no idea if American jam or jelly is what the rest of the world uses, but they are different products here. The consistency is pretty different, jelly is more solid almost like "Jello."

Yup. We also have jam and jellies here. There is a difference.

 

[TAJ]

Peanut butter is delicious and the problem to be eliminated replaced with honey is actually the jam.

 

[DBT85]

I eat peanut butter. No idea if it is American though.

I have it on toast and in sandwiches with jam.

I am older than 5. I am British.

I eat Whole Earth Crunchy Original and these are the ingredients

Roasted peanuts (97%), Palm oil, Sea salt

No extra sugar in MY Peanut butter.

 

[MrHicks]

simply called "CHOCO" (storebrand nutella clones count too)

"CONFITUUR" (aka strawberry....stuff/jelly/jam whathever the english word is)

[Funky Papa]

What's the story? If not peanut butter, then what the heck do you put on bread with your jelly?

Butter. Like real Europeans.

Peanut butter is ok, but it gets kind of gross and tiring after a while.

 

[SJRB]

I eat 6 slices of bread with peanut butter EVERY SINGLE DAY.


I'm doing my part.
