To think dh is perverse...?

He made DS a peanut butter sandwich and put a thick layer of butter on the bread first

It's not just me is it? That's weird to the point of perversity. What kind of freak would do that?

DS very sensibly refused to have anything to do with said sandwich. I was cross at the waste but not at DS.

What the heck?! Peanut BUTTER

Dirty, dirty bastard.

PB needs butter first
Do you eat toast with just PB?! The butter is there to soften and lubricate the toast
Get in the sea

I had this debate with a roommate once she said you need butter in addition to peanut butter because otherwise it sticks to the roof of your mouth. I, like you, felt that you're doubling up on butter and it's clearly food that needs to be thrown in a fire.

What's wrong with that? You do know that peanut butter doesn't actually have any butter in it, right,

I just had two slices of peanut butter on toast, it never crossed my mind to put butter on it??

It's all dry without butter
Warburtons crumpets. Butter AND peanut butter. Food of the gods

Vile bastard peanut butter

Are you not supposed to put butter on it?

Peanut butter is mashed peanuts with a bit of oil and salt. There's no butter in it.

I always use Meridian, and that needs a bit of butter(-like-spread in my case) else it's too rugged to swallow, even in a PBJ.

Ugh. Peanut butter needs no lube. Filth.

If you find it dry you add honey or jam.

I tried a mouthful just to see if maybeDH had a point (so sure me. I'm open minded) it wad the greasiest grimmest thing I've put in my mouth since i was a teenager.

Yuck - how horrid to contemplate peanut butter in a sandwich WITHOUT BUTTER
Peanut butter is all sticky and claggy without proper butter to lubricate the bread.
Next thing you'll tell me is that you make jam sandwiches with no butter either . Weirdo

I agree your husband! I also have butter and Philadelphia. Delish :)

There’s another thread going on about butter with cheese.
Come on people!
My feelings are it’s totally 🤢
BUT if you want butter with cheese or peanut butter then you go there!

Why on earth would anyone eat peanut butter (on toast, bread, bagel, ryvita or anything else) without spreading some butter or margarine first. It would be so dry and (like the extremely perceptive roommate mentioned above said) stick to the roof of your mouth.

It isn't called peanut butter because it spreads into a layer of butter and layer of peanuts. It's called peanut butter because the peanuts have been crushed and combined with oil to create a spreadable consistency.

How is peanut butter dry?!

Butter is absolutely required. However one must have a light hand, be judicious. Your DH has let us all down with such lavish excess.

But the texture is buttery

YABU. Peanut butter definitely needs butter! Sounds like your DH knows how to make a good sandwich!

You need butter otherwise it's a clumpy mess that doesn't spread properly! (unless you have the awful smooth stuff which is an insult to peanut butter )

Ds and I are slightly obsessed with corncakes & pb atm, mmm now I'm hungry

*Peanut BUTTER

You need butter. It's claggy otherwise.

I think we have a split between people who use oily peanut bitter like Sunpat smooth, which I could just about tolerate withouth butter as long as it was on white bread or crumpet, and people who use much drier smashed-peanuts-inna-jar like Meridian which really need butter because they're not as squidgy.

Peanut butter on its own is claggy (provided it's thickly spread enough) but slips down easily with marmalade. Certainly no reason to add another layer of oil to it.
