Guest guest Posted January 15, 2001 Report Share Posted January 15, 2001 >Why is peanut butter so popular in the US? I have heard that some >people practically live off it there, is that correct? > Hi , There have been times when I have practically lived on peanut butter. It is tasty but I am not really crazy about it. I think it is the ease and lack of preparation time. Kinda hungry but don't really feel like making something? have a spoonful of peanut butter...and you are satisfied for a couple of hours.

That is all they would eat at times!! I too get hungry sometimes for a good old PB and J , maybe soon when I find a good low carb bread and some good spread....got the peanut butter all ready. Our local health food store has organic peanuts that you can buy and grind on the spot. ressy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 15, 2001 Report Share Posted January 15, 2001 Why is peanut butter so popular in the US? I have heard that some people practically live off it there, is that correct? My Dear , There is nothing quite so " scrumptious " as a good ol' peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a great big glass of milk. Unfortunately I have become lactose intolerant and can only have a tiny bit of jelly made with juice and no sugar and maybe once every other week I'll eat a slice of whole wheat bread. Yuk! I don't even like whole wheat bread. Oh well, things could be worse. At least I have some control over my diabetes by being very " picky " about what I eat. I can even stuff some celery with peanut butter occasionally.

Kids love it.... with jelly in sandwiches. etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
