@blp Grew up in US, peanut butter was OK as a child. Much prefer chocolate sunflower seed butter now!

Technically never grew up

I don't know about peanut butter anywhere else but here in the US it typically has a metric-fuck-ton of sugar in it. (I checked, that's an actual unit of measurement.
)@401matthall @blp I only buy the peanuts only kind ... no added sugar, no added salt.

@blp peanut butter is surprisingly healthy. it's so healthy one must argue that it cannot be intrinsically American -

@blp South African here, and I like peanut butter. But only on its own. No syrup/jelly/jam/anything of the sort. Just plain peanut butter on bread.
-
@blp Almost 80% positive about peanut butter so far, didn't expect that.
Try root beer next. -

@blp I used to love it and eat it daily, often with Vegemite or bananas. But then a sibling kept eating peanut butter sandwiches in the car and now it's very rare for me to find any kind of peanut dish that doesn't trigger disgust reactions. Don't eat stuff with a strong smell in enclosed, moving spaces with other people!
I did not grow up in the US at all. -

@blp
Incas were the OG peanut smashers. We just slapped it on bread with some jam.

@blp the Dutch have their own _brands_ of pindakaas. Funny thing, you can get Skippy too, but it's the local brands - less sugar and processed crap - that come in big jars.
My Scottish cousin needs to use his passport more.

@blp this was probably more true 5-10 years ago. Nowadays nut butters are trendy and this appears to have changed tastes

@blp I am US born and love peanut butter, but my Russian born husband can’t stand the stuff. (And no, not a sugars thing. Only natural peanut butter allowed in this house.)

@blp I have a Swiss friend who smuggles peanut butter from here.
They are much weirder than you think.

@blp I think it's more likely that a person from the U.S. has *had* peanut butter, but in my limited experience, people I know outside the U.S. who have tried it tend to like it. Ex: Reese's peanut butter cups are popular abroad.
Now, Root Beer is a different story. That one is much more likely to be something you like if you grew up with it.
