Hazelnuts are great. I can't find them easily here.

I love eating peanut butter with apples and with celery. Or sometimes straight from a spoon. I'm partial to crunch PB. 😋

This was so interesting! Peanuts are my go to when I have the munchies. Great for protein intake as I don't eat meat or fish. My favourite chocolate bar when I was younger was a Cadbury's Star Bar - it had peanut butter running through the middle! I love peanut butter with banana on a toasted bagel. Now I'm peckish!😆

Writing about has that effect. I'm munching all day.

I have so much more knowledge now after reading this, thank you! And here I was just loving one of my fav snacks (PB sandwiches) without knowing all this stuff!

By the way: fresh bread that is preferably wholegrain or seeded with crunchy peanut butter. YUM YUM YUM.

I like toast! I mean I prefer toast over bread for most things and definitely as a medium for peanut butter. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for all the peanut facts. My larder informs me that I have replaced peanuts with almonds and, most recently, hazelnuts. Perhaps this is about product placement? I am a fan of peanut butter and bananas: salt + sweet.

I didn't know that peanuts were not nuts. Fascinating. Thanks for sharing, Cathy. I love peanuts that are served here in Mexico toasted with chile and garlic. Delish!
