I am addicted to peanut butter. I realized this today when for dinner I sat at my desk and used a little packet of peanut butter as a dip for my 94% fat free kettle corn. I also love to eat both fresh fruit and dried fruit with peanut butter, with one of my favorite snacks/desserts being sliced bananas on a peanut butter covered graham cracker. I am not sure why I have developed a taste for peanut butter, because although it has always been something I’ve tolerated, I can’t recall ever having a passion for the food. Also, it is only actual peanut butter or peanuts that I have a taste for right now, not peanut butter flavored things such as cookies. I think I shall jot it down as a weird quirk of mine, ranking right up there with my love of gravy during BEAST, especially on a piece of bread, as well as my love of a rice-tuna-cottage cheese-Texas Pete combination for dinner during crew season. Later on I’ve gone back and tried those foods and didn’t find them nearly as appetizing.

Dad chimming in,
ReplyDeleteI laugh at the contrast: Your grandfather had no taste for peanut butter save for one time after not eating for a few days during some kind of re-deployment during WWII. At a Red Cross tent he was given a peanut butter sandwich and thought it great.
Peanut butter is good food and has good oils necessary for vitamin processing, etc. I wonder if you are getting enough oil like foods from other sources. I wouldn't sweat it much. Your APFT score says you are healthy.
Much love,
Dad
