I Do NOT Have Arachibutyrophobia !!
.....because that is the fear of getting peanut butter stuck to the roof of your mouth.
I count peanut butter as one of my top ten foods of all time. Specifically Skippy Extra Crunchy. It is a pantry staple in our house.
How about you??? Skippy, Peter Pan, Jif, All-Natural Brand, Don't Like It (is that possible?) and also creamy or chunky or it doesn't really matter. Post your preferences in the comment box.
Did you know....
Consumers prefer creamy to chunky by a 60% to 40% ratio
More Skippy has been sold than any other peanut butter in the world.
It takes 772 peanuts to make a 16.3 oz. jar of peanut butter.
2 peanut farmers have been elected President of the United States...Thomas Jefferson and Jimmy Carter.
I was feeling a little nutty today....hence this post.
All fun facts found here.
i prefer creamy. pec usually buys the cheapest which is unfortunate because as you know not all peanut butters are created equal. i'm not a huge fan but pec and levee are.keegan & finn take a peanut butter & jelly in their lunch each day by choice. pec can eat it with anything or alone. that makes me a little sick. chocolate, jelly, that's one thing. but spaghetti, chilli,chinese food. i know this only means i am not an aficiando and should not comment on other peoples' tastes. i like creamy, thank you.

Hey Lindsey, you and I actually have something in common!! I love Jif too, but I like creamy AND crunchy. (It depends on my mood.)

i am all about creamy jif. i try to pretend that i like the healthy stuff "real" or smuckers... but creamy jif makes me all nostalgic... 'cause my mom is one of those "choosy moms." when it comes down to it, if i get to share it with a pal i would eat any kind (even aldi) and be happy.

I currently enjoy Cream Nut peanut butter that I got from Zingerman's deli. Ingredients: peanuts and salt. I like it as close to natural as it can get. Creamy or chunky - it matters not. BUT if I really had my druthers, I'd take Nutella ANY day!

Wow it looks like Jif is in the lead. Choosy moms must choose Jif. I'm sticking with my Skippy. Which peanut butter did Annette Funicello sponsor. I loved her.
And what is Nutella?

Sweet Sweet Megan - I will be bringing you some Nutella tomorrow.
(hint: it is NOT peanut butter)

annette funicello (mike calls her "annette funny-jello") was indeed a spokeswoman for skippy.

I loved Annette funny jello when she was in the Mickey Mouse Club. She was so cute. That's probably why I am a Skippy fan.
