Peanut butter and butter on toast is wrong

[QuentinWinters]

Settle a debate for me If you are eating peanut butter on toast do you butter the toast first? I don't because it seems like too much fat but DP does and calls me weird.
YABU - Toast, butter and peanut butter
YANBU - toast and peanut butter doesn't require extra

No butter, it’s peanut butter, so no point in adding butter

I must be a complete perv because I like smooth and crunchy peanut butter...(both with butter of course)

And particularly lovely is butter - PB - apricot jam. Unbelievable. I could eat an entire loaf of bread with this on.

Never butter but always something else to wet it a bit - I favour sliced gherkins (but I’m originally American). Or some kind of jelly/jam.
Never butter. Not even in p butter sandwich - always a different wetting agent.

Lovely thick, cold Lurpak, thin crunchy peanut 'butter' sprinkling of sea salt

YABU I'm afraid. I used to always have it without for the same reason but I've realised it's so much better with butter

We're the other way round, I like it with butter (extra tasty) and DH likes it without (HIBU).

Urrrgh! No butter! However peanut butter thickly on good toast followed by fine cut marmalade! Yummmmm! 😋

Hot buttered toast. While the bread is toasting, eat a big spoonful of peanut butter out the jar. Put the jar away and then enjoy hot buttered toast. Or PB and raspberry jam with the pips in, on toast.

Oh bobbin that is so TRUE !

And particularly lovely is butter - PB - apricot jam.
My favourite is actually cinnamon bagel/PB/apple jelly. Mmmmmm

YADNBU.

But what peanut butter toast DOES need is Nutella (other chocolate & hazelnut spread brands are available).

Oh yes! I think I actually have some Nutella type spread in my cupboard- will try it for my next elevenses. 🌹

I’ve realised I have never had Nutella. That’s quite shocking. Not sure why really.

I love butter to a ridiculous degree but I quite agree it has no place on PB on toast

There's no butter in peanut butter. So always butter first. Then peanut butter. Then raspberry preserve.

I am generally of the opinion that when making a sandwich, or topping toast, butter is not necessarily at all if the filling/topping is moist eg jam(don't like it) honey( don't like that either, cheese spread anything with mayonnaise etc. Butter is only required for dry fillings like meat , cheese salad etc...............However if I am having peanut butter on toast I feel that butter( not margarine or spread) truly enhances the taste and so I make an exception.

I always put butter on, then peanut butter. It's too dry otherwise and I want the extra calories.

Always butter on EVERYTHING to do with bread/crackers. Doesn't matter what goes on top.

I love butter.

Peanut utter is grim. A mouth full of sludge.

My husband has disgusting habits and covers his toast in a dense layer of marmite topped with a thick layer of gritty peanut butter. Just grim.

Agreed PufferFish I love butter.

Me too a lot.

Noooooo, ,you are soooooo wrong. I would love to do this but, though I could take the fat, I’m low carbing so can’t do the bread. God I miss it so.

Totally agree with you op. No need for butter and I actually hate it if it has butter on.

I used to think the same as you about butter and chocolate spread - I really couldn't understand why it would be necessary. Then I saw my niece spreading her toast with butter before putting on (an obscene amount of) chocolate spread we I tried it. It is sooooo good! The melted saltiness of the butter just sets off the chocolate spread. I imagine it might be the same with peanut butter (but I don't eat peanut butter because it is disgusting).

judas I’m imagining a small crunchy lettuce or even endive leaf with everything loaded onto it - would that work ?? Hate to think if you going without everything !
