Do you hate peanut butter? I do.

Yes.

I voted "hate" but must qualify my answer.

1. I have not tasted PB since I was about 12 yrs old - the same year 1975 VP was bottled

2. I am an open-minded kind of chap and am 100% tollerant of anyone who likes to talk about or consume PB

Derek

Dare I say Peanut butter rocks !!

Prefer PB and honey on wheat bread...yummy

I eat a sandwich with peanut butter and sambal (which is a great combination) almost every day at lunch.

The very smell makes me reel back..

Tom

I agree with Tom , too much and I can't stand the smell . This beeing said , twice a week is good for me .

The current score of 5-1-4 shows a shortage of people with moderate opinions. We all seem to have firmly-held extreme views. What a surprise!

Similar to the whole advertising concept of Marmite in the UK. It's a product you either love or hate, and nothing inbetween.

Alan

Alan , I know what a marmite is french , but what does it mean in the U.K. ?

Luc,

It's a funny sort of sandwich spread. Not sure what it's made of. I hate it!

Alan

Just to be boringly informative:

A marmite is a cooking pot - the word being more common in French than English.

A savoury spread based on yeast extract (the yeast being sourced from brewers) has been made for over 100 years, and marketed under this name.

It is packed in black pots that are so designed that you can never extract all the contents....

The spread itself is nearly black and very viscous, making it difficult to spread on soft bread. A similar product (but not the same recipe) is marketed in Australia as 'Vegemite'

In moderation, I quite like Marmite

Tom , you truly can be boringly informative .

Do not spread marmite in the same quantities that you would use for peanut butter, you will regret it. This is the primary source of all "I hate marmite" respondents.

Surely you jest !
Can anyone say marmite & Port !!!

So on my bike ride this morning, I passed by the local donut shop. THey had an advertisement in the window showing they now make a peanut butter and jelly donut.

Now, nothing against a regular jelly filled donut, but the thought of putting PB into a donut too was just sickening

To each his own .

I fear this question is misleading, it’s like asking ‘Does one hate Port?’

There are several Peanut Butter producers, Sunpat being one, who tend their ware with the utmost love and attention resulting in a smooth, creamy, well-balance peanut butter that, when spread across hot toast, is heavenly with a mug of tea.

However, there are others that taste like squirrel sick.

In Canada , the expression '' squirrel sick '' is rarely used . ( In Québec anyway ) .
Is '' squirrel sick '' , the equivalent of vomit ?

I am glad to say that I have never tasted squirrel sick.

However, there are others that taste like squirrel sick

How do you know??
