I work in the food industry...a couple weeks ago I had a Chef tell me that, "Bacon is the Duct Tape of the kitchen. Anytime I eff something up, or more usually one of my cooks fucks something up, I just add bacon to it and everybody loves it."

Bacon is clearly superior to PB, though PB is high on the versatility chain.

I also find Cinnamon to be quite the versatile ingredient...I used to make a burger that had onions that I simmered in red wine & cinnamon for about 30 minutes blended into the beef...I really need to make me a batch of them soon.

how about how people lose their crap if you bring peanut butter to places that have weird peanut allergy people at them?

They are weak. If the ancient Spartans would have had access to peanut butter, they would have fed it to every baby. Any baby who showed a reaction would be cast into a pit, and those weird allergies would have died out with them.

I do not like peanut butter unless it is completely surrounded by chocolate.

You ever put a lil' PB on celery with maybe a raisin or 3 on top? Takes a miserable food (celery) and makes it ELITE!

i think peanut butter is a little overrated actually, unless it's in a reeses or paired with jelly on a sandwich.  i don't like how it dries out my mouth.

but i can understand how people would feel the oposite.  one thing i'll never understand though is the freaks who put pb on a hamburger.  what a white trash thing to do.

You're wrong about the so long burger. The pb/siracha gives it a Thai kick that brings it all together.

I, Metalhead, join Dlew in his dissent against PB on burgers. I've had the So Long PB burger and I was not impressed.

It's good when paired with super sweet stuff (jelly, chocolate, etc). 

I like peanuts a lot fwiw.

Yeah, I've never tried them, but whenever I walk past a boiled peanuts truck (they have a ton in NYC), the smell draws me to it like a siren.

Would never get them though.

my dad recently bought boiled peanuts in a can from the grocery store and they looked, felt, smelled, and tasted rough ridin' disgusting.

that's not to say real boiled peanuts prepared in a gas can on the side of a county road in the south aren't good though.
