Peanut Butter - Smooth or Crunchy ?

I like to have a couple of crackers with peanut butter on as a sometimes afternoon snack.
Just gone to the cupboard to find I've bought the smooth instead of crunchy - found it very cloying and not very nice .
Which do you prefer ?

I'm with Stripsorspots, crunchy for eating, smooth for cooking

mydogisthebest · 18/08/2022 17:56

Only ever crunchy for me. Don't see the point of smooth. M&S is the best in my opinion

Crunchy, and it's got to be the cheapy one too...none of this 100% peanut rubbish.

Has to be crunchy for me, but husband complains that it's too difficult to spread!

KittyCatsby · 18/08/2022 19:55

I think crunchy wins 😄

Smooth peanut butter is just wrong

JaneJeffer · 18/08/2022 20:33

Smoooooth

ChiefWiggumsBoy · 18/08/2022 21:30

Crunchy every step of the way.

Great now I need some toast. I’m holding you entirely responsible @KittyCatsby !

mamaduckbone · 18/08/2022 21:30

Crunchy every time. Smooth is much too claggy.

ChiefWiggumsBoy · 18/08/2022 21:30

Smooth is disgusting I can’t bear it. Weirdos the lot of you that eat that muck!

uncomfortablydumb53 · 18/08/2022 22:37

Crunchy( whole earth is my favourite)

CakeCrumbs44 · 18/08/2022 22:41

Both are good. I usually buy smooth so I can also use it for cooking and smoothies. I like the whole earth one

Itreallyistimetogo · 18/08/2022 22:45

Crunchy, but DS and DP only like smooth so I am outnumbered!

PinkBuffalo · 18/08/2022 22:46

Smooth

GotTheConch · 18/08/2022 22:48

Crunchy. Obvs.

MysteriesOfTheOrganism · 18/08/2022 22:49

It has to be crunchy for the texture. And always 100% peanuts with no palm oil. Smooth is just claggy and horrible.

whimsicalwillow · 18/08/2022 22:50

Smooth sunpat on very brittle toast. My teeth can't take the crunchy!

Redshoeblueshoe · 18/08/2022 22:51

crunchy with marmite

HaveYouAnyDreamYoudLikeToSell · 18/08/2022 22:51

Crunchy everytime.......and it has to be Whole Earth as well. Sun-pat and smooth gives me the actual ick.

fruitpastille · 18/08/2022 22:54

Crunchy generally but smooth is good in smoothies. None of that whole earth bland oily stuff - I like a bit of added salt and sugar.

PlanetNormal · 18/08/2022 22:55

Crunchy, obviously. The chunks add textural contrast & mouthfeel.

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 18/08/2022 22:56

I get both
Crunchy for toast
Smooth fir cooking, baking and DD
I get Suma or Pip n Nit, sometimes Proper Nutty "smunchy".
