Have any particular reason?

Over here Jif is a household cleaning product. Peanut butter is a rare product, but when I lived in the UK the number one brand was SunPat. SunPat peanut butter and Branston pickle sandwiches has always been a bit of a guilty pleasure.

Well, mine is Jif. They add molasses, which makes it taste better in my view. I buy the creamy natural, which by using palm oil, they don't need to stabilize it with emulsifiers.

Anyone who has never eaten a peanut butter and banana sandwich has missed out on a great treat.

Try one and tell us what you think.

Heya LOP. :2wave: JIF in our household. Tastes better and spreads over the bread better. But I will buy others mixed with honey. I use to like the PB they had when I was in the Service. It was always mixed with honey. Don't know if they still do it today. I would hope that they would. Good stuff there. ;)

I voted Skippy, but in reality, it's whatever has the Crunchy in stock at the time it's needed.

I will gag on the smooth stuff, MUST have the crunchy........ :)

You know, if ever there's a kangaroo character introduced into Game of Thrones, Skippy of Jif would be the ideal name.

Natural Jif is my preference. I like it on apple slices. Yum.

I'll eat just about any brand name PB. I prefer smooth to crunchy though. :)

There's also pistachio butter and cashew butter too! I've had the cashew (delicious) but never the pistachio.

I like actual peanut butter. The standard Jif/Skippy have partially hydrogenated oils / sugar in addition to peanuts.

Well then sign me up for a Sandusky camp, because this "teeny, tiny little kid" still loves his creamy peanut butter. :lol:

Indeed. I don't know how people can like super chunky / chunky. If I wanted chunks I'd just eat peanuts.
