Why do Americans eat peanut butter?

[Pliny The Elder]

Its all the result of childhood conditioning, perpetrated by the evil peanut-farmer mafia. Don't believe me? Ask why you need a liscense to grow peanuts, similar to tobacco....the gov. only allows a certain acreage of peanuts to be grown. Hmm...I think they've bought off the CIA, too...probably put mind-conditioning drugs it.

That is just them being soft, and trying to extend their taste onto you.
It is not that strong, nor that salty, and is quite mild and pleasant.
Packed with Vitamin B.

Okay, whatever you say. Like I said before, I've never tasted it. But then, you've probably grown up with the stuff, so you have a tolerance to it that a foreigner wouldn't.

Mmmmmm, nutella...

I was going to mention Nutella. Have been a big fan of that ever since I saw 'Life is Sweet' with Jane Horrocks.

Peanut butter is a good source of protein for those who don't eat meat.

I used to be a peanut butter fiend. I ate a peanut butter sandwich for lunch every day from about second grade to seventh grade. Now I hardly ever eat it, having consumed my entire lifetime's allowance of peanut butter in those five years.

But I do love Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

Peanut butter is one thing, anyone outside of New England eaten Peanut Brittle? Ugh, that's a nasty trip...

BTW, you're all whingers.

Have you ever had those individually wrapped slices of processed cheese that are so popular in America? That is why peanut butter is so popular!

 

[Irish Caesar]

Nutella is pretty good...

I've seen plenty of those processed cheese things here, but there's just something about a single slice of processed cheese in plastic that just looks...kind of...well......not too good.

Certainly a good reason for Peanut butter's popularity.

BTW, I like peanut butter but am a Republican...

Brazilnut is a legume as well.

Not an extremely funny one, though.

Would you say I'm more of a left whinger or a right whinger? Those are the only kind of whingers I know.

You mean that peanut butter tastes like cheese? Why not rename it as "cheese 2.0" ... ;-)

Peanut butter tastes nothing at all like cheese. Where did you get that?

 

[Gastric ReFlux]

Because it tastes good. Nuff said.

 

[dannyevilcat]

You're all nuts, Nutella is gross! BTW, If anybody wants to buy some pork pies... not sure what those are exactly... I'm selling them at a discount...

 

[Pliny The Elder]

How can anyone not like peanut brittle??

 

[Armydude]

Peanut Butter is good!

This makes me look insane. I have NEVER, I repeat NEVER, had anything other than a peanut butter sandwich for lunch at school. So that makes 11 years of peanut butter sandwich eating.

Peanut butter is good. That is all there is to it. It is not open for debate. RM, just turn in your flag, gun, and passport on your way out!

Peanut brittle is okay.

As for this vegistuff, or whatever it is, I would be concerned about it if Simon Darkshade likes it. I may hold with his politics, and believe that he will be the one to lead the world to true unity, but that doesn't mean my stomach is equiped to deal with what he powers his evil with.
