I don't meant to pick on you @RodB651, but it wouldn't be a controversial thread if some people weren't getting stoned for their choices... So I have no choice but to pick on you.

CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER??

Really, Rod, really?!

I'm not sure we can be friends anymore. :cry:

Creamy peanut butter is half a step away from paying taxes! :sneaky:
No no no... Getting stoned is what they do in a different denomination, not ours.

First you pander to liberals, now you're getting stoned...

I am very offended that no one mentioned the banana - that is not at all inclusive.
Also the bread shown prevents leakage from the underside - again not inclusive at all

Next thread idea: "When Is a Banana a Hot Dog?" :oops::LOL::p
When you can put chili, cheese, and onions on it and eat it without grimacing?

I'm sure there's a verse in Leviticus that teaches us that a banana masquerading as a hotdog is unclean.

Ain't nothing better than my Grandma's homemade smooth peanut butter and homemade blackberry jelly served on one of her hot homemade biscuits. That's a real PB&J.

That sounds AMAZING. Everything made from scratch??!!

Wow, I'm not jealous.

Not one bit.

My go to peanut butter is Jiff, preferably crunchy but smooth is OK too. I enjoy all kinds of jellies and jams, mostly Smucker's but occasionally private labels. Good eating for sure. Yeah, like the crust too.

She taught my mother, my mother taught my wife and my wife taught my daughter. The best all of them could do with my granddaughter is also know to the rest of the world as "Ellie Mae" biscuits. You can use them for ammo when hunting rabbits.

For some reason or other, after pondering the deepest questions about the PB&J, I felt a hankering for a couple of chili dogs smothered in cheese and onion, and some Carolina Reaper sauce. I doubt I'll ever be able to connect the dots on how my brain transformed PB&J thoughts into a desire for chilidogs, but I'm enjoying that just now.

Don't mind if I do probe your thoughts....

Hmm, it seems in finding pb&janana, frankly, a'peeling,' you smacked yourself in the forehead and thought, "oh, cheese, I could've had a V8 only with organ meats substituting for the celery!"

Now...

As much I want to say I just can't support your alternative lunch-style (as opposed to lifestyle,) considering that some people are deathly allergic to peanuts...

I guess I'm going to have to make like a politician or large corporation and pander to the liberals. :cautious:

Hopefully this will be enough token acknowledgement to satisfy your activism (and secure your vote!)







Funny thing, I saw the little cap on that nut in the "Hazelnut" category -- and automatically assumed it was an acorn. Then I was thinking, "Oh great, now PETA is going to get involved because they will say our consumption of acorn butter will ruin the natural habitat of squirrels, starving them into extinction for the sake of our own lunches..."

Alas, the never-ending spiral when we who have NOTHING but the people's BEST INTERESTS start catering to "special interest groups." :cautious::giggle::LOL:
*shrugs shoulders* what do I care? I have no food allergies, and will eat good ol' peanut butter right from the jar any day :p

but acorn butter...
Now that might be something to try.

As far as the squirrels go, well...
Them critters don't even gather the nuts up round here! They wait till I'm ready to mow the yard and I remove the nuts (don't wanna ruin that mower blade ya know) and once the nuts are gathered in one spot then they come for them...
*grumbles* lazy, no good, rotten vermin mumble mumble mumble mumble.
Theres so many squirrels round here it aint even funny! Makes one wanna take on a new hobby...
squirrel hunting!
Now, :unsure: what to do with 'em all once they've been grounded er, I mean rounded up?







(I'm bad... I know :p )

Shoot, that's the easy part! Nothing better than a good squirrel pie.

I just mow over acorns though. Don't hurt the mower at all.

The english walnut and black walnut trees, now... I could horse-whip the guy who planted them. Downright pain in the butt, they are.

It's pine cones and pecans around here. Squirrel and dumplings does a lot towards keeping the population down, but they seem to multiply faster than we can eat them.

Next Thread Idea:

"101 Squirrel Recipes and 102 Uses for the Tails."

Now if anyone here says the tails are good eatin' as well... :oops:

I think I'm going to have to take a break from these controversial threads for a while.

Way too traumatizing for a simple suburban girl like me. :cry:

Squirrel and dumplings, that's good too.

If you can't beat em, eat em.

btw - cut a slit into the pumpkin, press in peanut butter, let sit until seeds are gone

The squirrels will be healthier than us, pumpkin seeds are super nutritious. My mother-in-law would make pomegranate jelly with ones that I brought her. The squirrels are after them each year, they seem to know the good stuff, lol. Oh, and organic almond butter with the pom jam is almost heaven😂
