    To further continue this discussion, those of you not from The States, what are some things that you're "weaned on" in your home country?
    Thinking on this further, wouldn't it be considered more of a national food rather than something the we are "weaned on"?
    For example in Iran, we were always having Feta, Rice and a carbonated yogurt drink...

    i dont know about all american kids, but in my house, we ate jif daily. on a banana or piece of toast for breakfast, in a sandwich at school, on crackers for snacks.

    yup except we were a skippy house. I hate it in spoonfuls, pb&j, peanut butter and apples/celery, peanut putter banana and honey, as i said peanut butter and pickles. Im actually bummed because we buy no sugar/oil peanut butter and its soupy and grainy so i don't really ever touch it.

    natural peanut butter is just nasty, and i have tried several brands. Its like grainy/oily...yet also dry. Blech.

    The peanut butter has 12 grams of fat for 2 TBSP's. So, the fat would be 3,000 + calories. Hmmm, maybe I need to walk more than I think. . . .
