The ratio is hard to get right but when right it is very good. Especially considering the peanut butter isn’t a great product to start with. It pairs better with vinaigre in my opinion.
I’ll assume this is a very European take, and point out that Europeans don’t even ever eat peanuts or peanut butter anyways as it was written off as colonist fodder unfit for their ‘queenly’ pallette. They also don’t like corn, which has the juice, so like yea man we know their tastes are stuck in like the 18th century. Go on darling, have your fermented herring and duck pate 😬 we’ll continue actually using the spices and flavors from the new world
L + ratio
Abysmal take. Chocolate ice cream with frozen peanut butter swirled in is proof that god loves us.
Real. Peanut butter in general is so ass. Basically every other nut butter is superior yet Americans love to shove that gross, musty shite into everything.
It’s okay. I prefer dark chocolate with peanut butter rather than milk, but Reese’s gonna reese.
Or even better:
Yeah but… Reese peanut butter cups 😍
I laugh my ass off when every few years someone combines peanuts and jelly on the Great British Bake-off and literally every single time all the other British people are like “wow, you have invented literally a brand new innovative and delicious cuisine”.
There was an episode I remember where they explored Mexican cuisine and a contestant said ‘Gacky-molo’ for ‘Guacamole’ and that has stuck with me since.
I thought I knew what a bad taco was before that episode. They proved me wrong.
Pineapple on pizza
Ham and pineapple complement one another with saltiness and sweetness. One amplifies the flavor of the other.
If you put canadian bacon next to the pineapple, its delicious. Also, really important to have pineapple that’s not super fibrious in a mixed dish.
I’ve executed drone strikes in 3rd world countries for less than the absolute anger this post makes me feel
When I was a kid, my family went to go visit some extended family in rural southern France. It was going to be over Halloween, and since the French don’t celebrate it, we brought some American Halloween candy for them to try. To our surprise, they loved it, especially the Reese’s cups. We had expected them to find it gross, since they had much higher quality chocolate in Europe.
A bar of Hershey’s, you can really taste the butyric acid that forms during their unique process. In a Reece’s cup, the high sugar content of the filling (it’s not really even peanut butter) overpowers it. I actually like Reece’s but Hershey’s is a last resort chocolate.
Woah Woah Woah. I’m Canadian and peanut butter and chocolate is also a thing here. Peanut butter may be my favourite thing. Why am I catching strays?
Canada is part of America, just not the USA.
Peanuts and Cocoa are distinctly (South) American, if you can distance applying the term American just to the USA.
Yeah because when I’m aboard ppl always assume I’m Canadian or from Honduras when I say I’m American
I’m not arguing the colloquial use of the term “American” here.
No, I cant
I get that the connotation is Americans are people from the USA but it does erase some of the identity of the rest of the Americas.
All I was saying was it’s not surprising that the person from the Americas enjoys a combination of flavors distinctly from the Americas.
Peanuts and Cocoa are distinctly American, South American to be precise.
I don’t like this food.
Ok, there’s lots of stuff I don’t like. Why not grab a Snickers?
It’s an abomination!
Whoa there, it’s just a Reese’s cup…
phillistine depravity!!
Look, that’s excessive, isn’t it? And there’s only one L in phi-
AMERICA BAD!!!
Calm down, psycho! Holy shit touch grass!
I just ate some choco coated peanuts. Here, have a choco peanut cookie.
You shut your dirty whore mouth
Well, that’s that. Close the thread
Agreed. Close thread.
Happy cake day!
Oh for real? I’ve always rolled my eyes at such a thing, but :-)
Exactly the kind of lively discussion I was hoping for!
