Crunchy or smooth peanut butter? - A question for the ages.

[LagoonaBlue]

Which one do you all prefer?

Crunchy all the way, Trader Joe's brand is really damn good.

I like both equally but I currently have smooth peanut butter in. It's nice on toast.

 

[fire_fly]

I prefer smooth, honestly. If I wanted to eat peanuts I would just eat peanuts.

 

[Too Many Crooks]

I like smooth more on sandwiches & bananas, but I still enjoy crunchy PB.

 

[Trombonista]

It's called peanut butter, so it's gotta be smooth.

Melted Crunchy Peanut Butter on Toast!

both on toasted raisin bread

Peanut butter sure is fattening. Just one serving (about 16 grams) is 25% DV of fat.

That said, I like both creamy and crunchy. Can there be an option for both?

Added an option for both. Sorry I didn't put that in to begin with.

It appears most of you prefer smooth over crunchy PB.

Long live crunchy peanut butter!

Depends on what I'm eating it with. If it's in a sandwich, with apples, or just by itself, I like it crunchy. If it's on toast or with bananas, I like it smooth.

Depends. I usually like smooth peanut butter if it's commercial, but if it's custom ground fresh, I like leaving it a little bit chunky.

Most commercial crunchy peanut butter just involves adding ground peanuts into normal smooth peanut butter, which seems completely pointless.

Also the best peanut butter only comes in smooth...

on toast or with bananas

You know, I thought I was weird for eating PB and banana on toast/sandwiches. Nice to see I'm not alone.

PB and Nutella also go well together.

Not peanut butter, bacon and banana? Elvis weeps.

I don't get America's obsession with putting sweet stuff on bacon. I tried bacon with maple syrup one time at an American-style diner here in the UK and hated it.

 

[The Queen of Trash]

TBH, it depends on what I'm eating because I'm a huge texture-influenced eater. On sandwiches or with veggies like celery and carrots, smooth is fine. But on bagels, toast, and apples, I gotta have crunchy.

crunchy works amazingly well in peanut butter fudge

smooth belongs in reese's cups and only reese's cups

Elvis preceded that weird fad. It's probably part of why he Elvised his way up to 300 pounds or so, but it's tasty.
