    So good to know I'm not alone in my love of PB!! My college roommate 35 years ago introduced me to PB on bread for breakfast. Ate many a slice while running across campus for an early morning class. I think I can almost count on my hands the number of days I haven't had PB/bread for breakfast. If I go a day or two without it, I'm craving it and can't stand it til I break out the PB jar. (Been known to raid the jar at midnight, like now, when everyone else is sleeping and I have a major craving. lol) I have risen to eating it only on healthy whole-wheat bread, though. And I can eat it at 8 and not be hungry til noon and/or eat it at 10 a.m. and can go til 2-3:00 for lunch. If I try to go "fat-free," and eat cereal, I'm hungry in an hour.

    My usual breakfast is PB on whole wheat with half a banana if have one on hand and a small glass of OJ. I'm trying to quit drinking my calories, though.

    I spread peanut butter on a rice cake and then top it with fresh fruit like blueberries or sliced banana. Great for breakfast!
    Peanut butter and honey is one of my favorite food combinations! I love peanut butter and honey on a waffle or toast! My grandma used to make me peanut butter and honey sandwiches!

    That is my 5yo's fav!! She loves her PB & honey sandwiches. I made her one for lunch at school almost every day this year! :laugh: She also loves PB & honey on pancakes or waffles. Much better option than syrup!! :huh:

    Well your 5 year old has very good taste!
    Yep, peanut butter and honey on a waffle is far superior to syrup...in my opinion anyway! :tongue:
    Never tried it on a pancake. I like cream cheese and strawberry jam on my pancakes. But that's a whole other subject! :laugh:
    Mmmmm...now I'm hungry!

    LOL peanut butter helped make me fat, I went through a jar of it within two days each week! But man...I'll never give it up. Never never never!!! I'm relearning how to eat in moderation now =)

    For some odd reason, I forgot or was too busy to eat much today, so I splurged tonight and ate vanilla wafers with peanut butter and cream cheese frosting. I think I'm in heaven!

    I had a PBJ for lunch today, and I swear I am ready to reach for that jar again after reading this thread! Hmmm, wonder how pb and hummus would go together? :laugh:

    I love PB --any kind-- on top of my banana... and if I have some good local honey around, a drop or two with each bite =)

    BTW I heard that God serves this in Heaven ! ! !

    I see your "MMMMMMMMM!!! " and raise you 5 "MMMMMMMMM!!! 's"
    You just rock!! I have to say!! Excellent taste in spreads!! :wink: :laugh:

    How do you like yours? On a sandwich? Celery? Sliced Apple? Cracker? Directly out of the jar on a spoon??

    Or all of the above? :tongue: :glasses:

    I love my peanut butter!! I love it on toast, right out of the jar, on a sandwich, apple, you name it. When I was a bad girl I used to get a tub of Betty Crocker milk chocolate frosting and a jar of Jiff and sit in front of the TV eating alternate spoonfuls. Ahhhh, the good ole days. LOL :bigsmile:

    I need some peanut butter soon!! :glasses:

    I make my son a peanut butter and jelly sandwich every day for his sack lunch. I just got done making his lunch and I didn't dare even lick the knife.

    The writing's on the wall after that. You'd find me in the corner passed out, fat and happy, in a peanut butter spun stuper, with a spoon and an empty jar of Jiff. Peanut butter on my nose from trying to lick the jar clean. LMAO

    I have been searching for this peanut butter:

    Naturally More (www.naturallymore.com)

    Site says you can purchase it from Wal-Mart here in Michigan. No luck so far.

    Yes, I think this thread could get to be like the hummus one!

    Hey, we are a bunch of smart chicks!! :wink: :tongue:

    I like peanut butter and sliced banana on toasted bread! :love:

    It is a great "treat" to have, especially if you have a lot of calories at the end of the day.

    I love peanut butter too, but too many spoonsfuls has lead to jarfuls so I no long allow myself to eat it like that. I used to insist (to myself only) that if no one saw me eat it, it didn't count. Now if no one sees me eat it, it counts twice!! :laugh: No more closet eating for me!

    I love a Tablespoon of Naturally More PB on a Tortilla Factory Whole Wheat Low Carb (the little ones) with 1/2 banana sliced and wrapped like a buritto! It's a wonderful on the go snack or breakfast and it packs pretty good in a pinch too!

    I got my Naturally More PB at the WalMart in Alpena, MI. They don't carry Agave though, which is disappointing.
