Title: Peanut Butter: A Lesson for our English Friends!
Post by: Grakthis on October 10, 2004, 06:50:26 am
Peanut butter, largely credited to George Washington Carver in 1880, was part of the inventors list of 300 uses for peanuts.  Carver did this to encourage farmers to rotate crops and, specifically, to plant peanuts because of their ability to reknew the soil between tobacco and cotton crops.

In 1922, Joseph L.Rosefield began selling a number of brands of peanut butter in California. These peanut butters were churned like butters they were smoother than the gritty peanut butters of the day. He soon received the first patent for a shelf-stable peanut butter which would stay fresh for up to a year because the oil didn't separate from the peanut butter.

One of the first companies to adopt this new process was Swift &Company for its E.K. Pond peanut butter, renamed Peter Pan in1928. In 1932, Rosefield had dispute with Peter Pan and began producing peanut butter under the Skippy label the following year. Rosefield created the first crunchy style peanut butter two years later by adding chopped peanuts into creamy peanut butter at the end of the manufacturing process. In 1955, Procter & Gamble entered the peanut butter business by acquiring W.T. Young Foods in Lexington, Kentucky, makers of Big Top Peanut Butter. They introduced Jif in 1958 and now operate the world's largest peanut butter plant, churning out 250,000 jars every day!

One-half of all edible peanuts produced in the United States are used to make peanut butter and peanut spreads.

Peanut butter is an excellent source of protien, niacin and magnesium.  As well as being downright tasty with chocolate, grape jelly, bannanas or just a glass of milk!

To help our confused English (or just taste impaired) friends, here is a step by step illustrated guide to peanut butter.

*YAWN*

It's early sunday morning.  Whatever will I have for breakfast?   How about a healthy and nutritous peanut butter sandwich!

But do I have the neccesary ingredients?  Let's see!

(http://grakthis.com/images/peanutbutter/BreadAndToaster.JPG)

Bread, Check.  Toaster, Check.

Wait, I'm forgetting something.

(http://grakthis.com/images/peanutbutter/jiff.jpg)

Oh yeah!  Peanut butter! hahahahahahahaha!

So, first things first.

(http://grakthis.com/images/peanutbutter/AddBread.JPG)

Take 2 slices of bread and add them to the toaster.

(http://grakthis.com/images/peanutbutter/Toast.JPG)

When it's done, the tast should be nice and toasty brown.  If it's not, then you forgot to turn on the toaster!  Silly n00b!

(http://grakthis.com/images/peanutbutter/AddPeanutButter.JPG)

Next, take your knife and gently spread the peanut butter on your two pieces of toast.  Make sure to lick the knife when you're done!

When you're done, putt the two pieces of toast together with the peanut butter coated sides facing eachother.

(http://grakthis.com/images/peanutbutter/Finished.JPG)

When you're done, add a glass of milk and enjoy!

(http://grakthis.com/images/peanutbutter/Eating.JPG)

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmm good!

(http://grakthis.com/images/peanutbutter/FrodoToo.JPG)

Even Frodo loves it!

Now go make your own peanut butter sandwich for breakfast.

And remember, JUST SAY NO to vegimite and marmite!

OMG. i'm seriously going to pee myself. :razz: this is the greatest thread created - i <3 peanut butter to the max

and you forgot to specify to use a butter knife - if you use a sharp one and then lick it you run the risk of slicing your tongue (note - this is something i acutally have not done - but almost did :-X)

The very fact he uses Jif, toasts his bread, makes a historical reference to the state he lives in, and ACTUALLY gives lessons, I would say Grakthis is a peanut butter freak.

Toasting = Tasty.  I don't do it for BP&J though.  Just for PB or PB and Bananna!

And just for the record, Peter Pan BP tastes like cardboard.  :)

Now I know there's something wrong with you.

Banana ruins EVERYTHING. There is NOTHING that you can add banana too that will taste nice. It's the worst.fruit.evar. In fact, I think the banana was a joke that God played on us. And you're falling for it.

If peanut butter is say, 6 or 7 on the all time rank scale (which it is), then Banana is 9, if not 10.

It's called peanut paste over here.

Vegimite is an aquired taste. You have to work up to it. Start with some bug flavored glass, move up to radioactive goo, then somehow concentrate the smell of sulfur into a solid and eat that, then when scientists invent a way to compress the taste of several crazy hobos into a spreadable paste, munch on that too.

Then all you have to do is cut off your tounge and shove an icepick into the part of your brain that registers taste and you are set to eat vegimite.

What happens if you skip right to the vegimite.....without icepick and with tongue intact?

If you think you can't make a speadable paste out of the taste of several crazy hobos, you haven't met any crazy hobos.  And how the hell do you munch on a spreadable paste?  Oh wait.....crunchy peanut butter....crunchy hobos.....

From the makers of "edible Radioactive goo" and "mystery meat pie" comes "Hoborific!" a new spreadible paste. Contains all the ingredients for a balanced diet including:

                                     Shopping cart filled with cans
                                     Insect filled beard
