Same! I love fresh ground nut butters🙂 we sell all kinds of flavored ones with protein powder, etc. Not my thing- plus the ingredients aren't great. Smuckers crunchy 100 percent natural is awesome too! I do not want oil or sugar added in any form.
also, crazy richards is great!1 -
I love run-of-the-mill store brand peanut butter, smooth or crunchy!!! A big spoonful! Bring it on! (OK, a smaller spoon, ‘cause, calories.)3

I like it (so long as just peanuts and salt) but do generally prefer other nut butters.0 -

Yes, agree that peanut butter is not especially sweet. If one chooses peanut butters with sugar added, than the sugar is sweet (I also don't care for sweetened nut butters, but I don't blame the nuts).2 -
Haha I am the opposite about peanut butter! (Which is why I have to post since it is the unpopular opinion 😂)
I can’t stand natural peanut butter. I prefer the super smooth brands with added sugar that are creamy and sweet. Love jiff and skippy and all flavored ones like pb and co.6 -
I grew up thinking peanut butter (jiff et al.) was awful, and only realized I actually liked it when I tried the peanuts and salt only kind.2

Even the small spoon is still WAY too many calories for my liking. When you place that small spoon on a scale, you start to question life.
...life is not fair and this supports that! That is why I always have a jar of 'PB and Me' on hand.1 -
I just started eating walmarts brand of pb 2 powder I can totally handle those calories!! Yummo 👍0

That’s why I eat almond butter — or one reason.
You grind it fresh yourself in the store, vs reading labels trying to find the peanut butter that’s closest to just peanuts.

Sounds great...except that the calories still exist😥1 -

Couldn't you do that with peanuts too? I often do it with all nuts, but at home, although it's nice to be able to just buy it too.2 -

This is the problem, true. (Although I do find nuts in some form tend to fit in okay.)2 -

Every part of the tomato except the fruit is poisonous and tomatoes are in the same plant family Solanaceae which has as it members nightshade and wolfsbane. Many members of this family are indeed poisonous or hallucinogenic or both. That the family also contains many edible members such as potatoes, chili peppers, and eggplants is interesting.
It is also believed that you can summon Werewolves using members of this plant division.
Tomatoes are known in Italian as “pomi d’oro” (golden apple) or the even more evocative French “pomme d’amour” (love apple).
I do love a toasted BLT with Hellman's Mayo.
What I won't eat is any organ meat [including liver] and most fruits, it is horrid stuff the mere thought of eating such a thing makes you want to retch.

If it is satiating, so be it. But I find drinkable calories far from satiating... same with soup1 -

Or *good* craft IPA . . . even a nice sweet-stout ice cream float. Not even gonna say how many calories . . . with the real whipped cream on top, besides . . . but worth every single one 😋🤣
ETA: Satiation isn't the only important thing in a balanced life, when it comes to budgeting calories. JMO.7 -

Today, I baked a nice number of Japanese sweet potatoes, and made a lovely warm salad by saute-ing the greens and twice cooking the potato. Came out nice.4
