Favorite PB?

Oh! I forgot to answer your question. When younger I preferred chunky (store-bought), but my teeth have deep crevices and I'm starting to lose them besides, so nowadays I prefer smooth.

Blech. Never liked pickles and can’t imagine hot sauce going well with PB.

I used to eat PB, mayo and American cheese sandwiches and thought those were awesome. Haven’t had one in a while.

And gotta have a bread of substance - like multigrain - for a PB sandwich, though lately I try to confine myself to low-carb bread.

You know why PB and milk go well together? They apparently complement each other protein-wise. PB’s an incomplete protein.

Such a smooth operator:

I should have included, as subtopics, whether people prefer PB with jelly on a sandwich and what they think of those jars where PB and jelly already have been mixed together.

I think PB and something called Fluffernutter (marshmallow?) was a thing way back when, but I never got into it.

But I am curious how PB made only with peanuts and salt has the same calorie count, if not a little higher, than commercial brands of PB that include sugar 🤔

Yeah, we had American cheese too when I was kid. What was that about? I'd be completely in favor of specific regional cheeses from the USA, but that was not that.

Moving on, you might already know this, but I'll say it in an expository lump for the RHP massive: peanuts have a lot of the amino acid arginine, which promotes nitric oxide production (not nitrous, you clow ...[text shortened]... tides that act as ACE inhibitors, similar to one class of meds prescribed to control blood pressure.

I go back and forth. Some days I like chunky, some days I like smooth.

I really oughta avoid the commercial brands and stick only with brands made only of peanuts and salt ‘cause I read (or heard) hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is in the commercial brands, is really bad for you but don’t remember why.

Completely get you re: having previously known some reasons and then later reducing some choices to: "nope, to be avoided, and I remember there was a good reason for that."

PB and relish sounds gross, but I never liked relish either.

I used to watch Happy Days when I was a kid and don’t remember that, though it’s definitely possible.

I didn’t Fonzie knew his father or maybe his father ran out on him when he was a kid. Obviously if his grandma knew him, he knew his father.

The episode is called Grandma Nussbaum, 1982. Fonzi and Chachi are concerned their grandma is too senile to take care of herself. Grandma Nussbaum's Nick name for Fonzi is Skippy lol

Looked it up:

<<Hydrogenated oil is bad for you because it contains a high level of hydrogenated fats, called trans fats, that increase your risk of developing heart disease and other health problems. There are some foods that also naturally contain trans fats, but these kinds of fats the biggest problem when they come from artificial and processed sources, like hydrogenated oil.>>

Peanut Butter and marshmallow cream was promoted by Kraft
I'm sure they sell most of it for making fudge Nov-Jan then sales lagged. So they had a picture on the side of the jar, kids dressed as pirates eating PB & MM cream sandwiches.
Goober Grape by Bama was the most popular PBJ mix. You normally refrigerate jelly, but the PB gets too stiff and is hard to spread.

Once you mix the PB and syrup it thickens and is hard to stir. A little heat in a microwave helps
