Settle a debate for me Grin 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

Has to be real butter not margarine, but yes, it'd be too dry without it!

You lot are heathens, the only way to eat peanut butter is crunchy,slapped between 2 slices of white bread. I do make my old lab toast with peanut butter though for breakfast occasionally. Dh offered to make lunch in 1st lockdown, he put margarine on my peanut butter sandwich 🤢

You are absolutely right.

The rest of my family add butter and it is disgusting and wrong 🤮

HeronLanyon · 02/04/2021 21:32

love like thkight of your old lab. Isn’t it funny how we are totally in charge of why they eat (well apart from when they swipe something).
Such a responsibility and honour and pleasure !

A bit of marmite on top of the butter, before adding the peanut butter is brilliant.

QuentinWinters · 02/04/2021 22:25

You are absolutely right.

Yes. Yes I am Grin

Nope. PB is dry, it is NOT a butter replacement despite its name.

How do you even spread PB on bread without butter first, it would just rip up the bread. Heathen.

Just peanut butter on toast- always a challenge to remain on task and spread it before the toast cools down though!! Usually doing other stuff at the same time lol.

Never in sandwiches- too dry.

Real butter and peanut butter is sooooo delicious! I have it very rarely but its so nice.

Grin Our old lab is on tablets x3 daily and will only take them in a peanut butter and jam sandwich. She's got a tumour so bugger any effect on her teeth. And yes, she does have butter.

On toast you need good bread, good butter (thinnishly spread) then honey, followed by peanut butter with Cornish sea salt.

YABU. When I low carb I miss this so much that I melt butter and peanut butter in the microwave in a ramekin and eat it with a spoon. So good!
There's no butter in peanut butter, of course it needs butter.

Nannyamc · 02/04/2021 23:30

Butter ..peanut butter.. banana and honey on toasted brown bread..food of the gods...yum

ErrolTheDragon · 02/04/2021 23:34

YA all BU. You should be eating almond butter, with or without butter, and ditch the palate-clagging PB.

Merename · 02/04/2021 23:37

Butter for me and marmite PB. Soz if it’s been mentioned already. I am seriously addicted.

Dinkydody · 02/04/2021 23:37

@Mydogisagentleman

YANBU, but some sliced ripe banana elevates it
This 😋
Alexindiamondarmour · 02/04/2021 23:38

I had this about ten minutes ago for breakfast. It is butter, peanut butter always!!

You need to report your opening post OP and add MNHQ to edit the title. You spelled “delicious” wrong.
