Peanut butter.... why? (beehaw.org)

Today I made crêpes for breakfast like I usually do....

And I tried some smooth peanut butter inside one of them. It doesn't taste horrible, but after a bit of eating it, I felt like I was in the 3rd circle of hell.

I asked my mother and my grandma for an opinion, and they too agreed.

Why do Americans torture themselves like this?

Yeah, that sounds like it would be a textural nightmare with how thick and heavy peanut butter is.

It's very rare to eat peanut butter on its own. It's most famous for the way it pairs with other flavors. Peanut butter and jelly (strawberry jam is a classic), peanut butter and honey, peanut butter and chocolate, or if you want something super extreme peanut butter and marshmallow fluff.

I would bet you'd like it more if it hadn't been peanut butter only.

I raw dog peanut butter all the time.
