Potato chips.…. with PB and wild grape jelly. I discovered it last year when I ran out of bread. lol! It’s good. :)

I’ll eat peanut butter but it’s far from a first choice. As for odd (at least for me), my mom used to love peanut butter, mayo and lettuce sandwiches.🥴

Well, I do like PB on celery, but I also love a PB and Mayo sandwich! I know it's weird, but my sister's and my lunch got switched when I was in Kindergarten, and that's what I got! I'm also not a big fan of sugary sweet stuff, so the PB&J does'nt really go into my wheelhouse!

toasted, buttered, thick sourdough, healthy amount of JIF creamy, thinly sliced dill pickles.

I was also going to post my fave with PB is dill pickles! I wouldn't spread PB on a pickle to eat but in a sandwich, it's really great. I like chunky PB but will eat either. I really don't care for any PB with sweetener in it and usually buy unsalted. I buy whatever organic brand that comes in a glass jar. My food co-op sells several brands that fit the bill. I get a craving for PB about once every 6 months, so I'll eat a few sandwiches or put it on toast for about a week, then I'll not eat it for another 6 months.

I like to put peanut butter in my oatmeal along with sugar and cinnamon.

I don't eat a lot of PB, never have. But I tried it on good bread with bacon. That was pretty darn good. Except I don't eat a lot of bacon either.

My father's favorite sandwich was peanut butter, bacon, and sliced bananas on toasted Jewish rye bread. I tried it once and spit it out.

^^^Elvis’ sandwich.

I love peanut butter and can’t keep it in the house as I eat most of it on a spoon.

Weird though? Nothing comes to mind at this moment.

Probably not the right forum to be quoting Road Trip. If you know, you know; if you don't, don't bother to look. 😂

I dislike the taste of peanuts. I recently bought a jar of mixed seed/nut butter at Costco on a whim. I haven't opened it yet, but since I have celery left over from a recipe, I might try the mix on a stalk of celery for a snack.

If I said that I like PB on chicken I’d probably hear someone say ”ewwwwww”, but that’s just chicken satay. :)

I rarely eat PB…. I use Smucker’s Natural. Once in a blue moon I’ll make PB cookies, or a PB sandwich, oh! there’s also Colonial Williamsburg peanut soup! from the King‘s Arms Tavern, I had it there originally, and I have made it a few times since. :)

King’s Arms Tavern Peanut Soup

LOL! PM, before I got to the end of your sentence, I thought ”chicken satay”, but that's not straight peanut butter. Peanut butter in sauces greatly expands its savory uses. 😉 Thanks for the recipe (mind blown). If I were very hungry and had no alternatives, she said contextualizing where such a recipe came from, I could even perhaps enjoy that, but … I'll eat bugs on a log (PB celery raisins—ugh) sooner than that soup! But I could happliy eat the cream of chicken soup, and the PB and peanuts on the side…

I love peanut butter and like FOAS sometimes eat it straight off the spoon. It was a common breakfast for me while I was still working, my secretary called it a "peanut butter sucker".

I learned to eat peanut butter and Miracle Whip from Aunt Bea and eat Ants on a Log since the girls were in Girl Scouts. I make peanut butter sauce for rice noodles and make peanut butter chicken, like satay but without the sticks. Peanut butter pie and a peanut butter topping for ice cream are really common here. I sometimes stir a spoonful of peanut butter and some grated chocolate into my oatmeal, it's much like a No-Bake cookie but not really all that healthy, LOL.

My favorite peanut butter is Koeze's Cream Nut, a local company. Even the smooth is kind of gritty, the little pieces of peanuts are still there. The label says two ingredients, peanuts and salt. The same equipment is used since the 40s or so and they do a small batch and taste test each batch before the next batch is started. It's like eating a handful of peanuts.

My guilty pleasure is Peter Pan Honey Roasted. Creamy, sweet, full of things that aren't peanuts.

Annie

I love Oriental, but will not touch anything with peanuts or peanut butter. I detest peanuts.

Well, I‘m getting really excited about peanut butter after reading Annie’s pro PB post! :)

I love PB and will est it off a spoon as a midnight snack :-) As well as using it in sandwiches, cookies and satay, I also have a Nigerian chicken recipe that uses PB, so good with jollof rice!

I supposed people might think a grilled PB (no J) sandwich is a little odd, but I like them :-D

Any recipe that calls for Sesame Tahini, I sometimes substitute non-sweetened peanut butter.

dcarch

Hair- it does remove gum and is a good hair deep treatment. Labels/sticky- since it's solid, it can sit on a label overnight to be easier to get the goo off. Clothes- again, the solid overnight, makes pine resin easier to remove. Pinecones- it's a great glue for birdseed :)

o m g, beesneeds, I have a hard enough time just getting the shampoo out of my hair. I'd be busy for a week if I added peanut butter to it. lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DCarch, opposite for me. I'll eat techinah off a spoon, in a sandwich and in most places calling for peanut butter! 😁

THanks, dcarch, I'll have to try that. I'll put tahini in hummus, but that's about all. To me it seems too astringent, makes the inside of my mouth pucker. Not like sour pickles pucker, but something else. Anyway, I don't like it very much.

It's all good, I can eat all the peanut butter and plllog can have the tahini. As Mother used to tell me "you can just have all of that". LOL

Colleen, I just had a grilled PBJ last week with homemade raspberry jam!

PM, we gotta keep those peanut farmers in business. (grin)

Annie

Annie, the homemade raspberry jam (which I once made succesfully with your guidence) is a perceptual game changer. I can imagine it with good peanut butter on firm whole wheat bread and think it could be good. Thanks for the insight!

I wasn't there, and can't know, but if I'm guessing right about the sesame ”astringency” my first thought is that the seeds weren't fresh enough. Sesame seeds start turning rancid very fast and the flavor goes off a bit before they actually spoil, and sometimes it goes in the jar that way. There are also some sesame varieties that are just bitter. Sesame is my very favorite flavor, so I've come across all kinds…

I like peanuts. I like them included in a recipe or chopped/ground in a sauce, usually something Asian but I am otherwise like Lars. I do not put peanut butter on anything I intend to eat. I've not even used it on a mousetrap - I've never had a mouse (knocking on wood here).

DH would eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches every day for a while. He would make his own. They didn't require refrigeration and he could put one in a zip lock with a bottle of water into one of his engineers vest pockets and had something to eat during his day. Now that he's retired though, he rarely seems to want one.

I do like peanut butter cookies. It's a shame I'm not much of a cookie maker. Something about fooling with all those little individual 'thingies' and I would much rather bake a cake or pie.

I'd read where someone in training for something strenuous had eaten a few spoonfuls of peanut butter from the jar daily, gaining the weight they wanted. Wanting to gain just a little, I bought a jar a tried it. I lasted about 1 day and couldn't handle the mouth/throat feel.

Morz, Annie's Cuppa Peanut Butter Cookies would be perfect for you. No fuss and really really easy to make. I couldn't find a thread to link, so I hope Annie won't mind if I paste an old post of hers here (i.e., my recipe). I just mix it with a fork in a medium sized prep bowl and it makes a perfect dozen.

I (Annie) also like the simple "cuppa" peanut butter cookies, I often make them, they are very easy. I've also made them tiny and sandwiched them with nutella. Yeah, I like nutella, LOL, but I've also use a mini muffin cup and put a ball of dough into each cup and pressed a mini peanut butter cup into that, make it fancy by using a pastry bag and adding one dollop of chocolate frosting on top.

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

1 cup peanut butter

1 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix ingredients together in a large bowl until well-blended.

Roll peanut butter mixture into Tablespoon size balls.

Bake 12 minutes for chewy cookies; Bake 15 minutes for crisp.

Can't think of anything odd - just the usual things like bread, noodles, in cookies. I eat more right off a spoon than in anything else - as a pick-me-up when I need to eat but don't have much time. That and a banana tides me over for several hours.

I used to make a spicy peanut butter dip, good with carrot sticks and other raw veggies. It was basically the same thing I've used on noodles, with garlic, ginger, citrus juice, soy sauce and chili peppers.

I like tahini and sesame too, and make a dip for pretzels with tahini and honey. I make one with peanut butter and maple syrup too.

My PB&J of choice would be strawberry 🙂

I buy both PB & tahini @ Trader Joe's - both organic as well.

Thank you plllog for the recipe. One dozen does sound like something I could manage without finding it too tedious......😊

Thanks, plllog, for posting that. I actually make it even more simple when I make it with the younger kids because I wanted them to remember it without a recipe so they could be baked at a friend's house or while camping, etc. So I told them to make a "handful". One cup of sugar, one egg, one cup of peanut butter, one teaspoon of soda and if they remembered their thumb, one teaspoonful of vanilla. I find that with my extra large eggs one is enough and the baking powder isn't really needed but it does make the cookies "fluffier". I think the vanilla makes a difference but no one else does, LOL. It also works well for "make ahead" if I mix everything except the egg in a small bowl with a lid. Just pop the lid, add the egg and it's cookies.

So, if you want to make it simple enough for small children, remind them that if they have a hand, they have the recipe!

So, I was eating random things for breakfast and had avocado oil mayonnaised my slice of kimchi bread, when my eye fell on the not-yet-gone jar of peanut butter. Several of you had mentioned PB with mayo. Seemed odd but not horrid or anything--just my mother's voice saying no fat with fat--so thought I should try it. The texture of the solidified PB didn't go well with the soft kimchi bread, so I tried the crusty ends--and added more mayo because they were a little dry. I still couldn't taste the mayo through the PB, which was pretty thick (so is avocado oil mayonnaise--high viscosity), so I added a dab on top. Still couldn't really taste the mayo through the PB, but I got it. The point that is. The mayonnaise cuts the sticky like sugar does. That's a good trick! Stuck to the roof of your mouth always reminds me of the elephants.
