Same types of people think pineapple don’t belong on pizza. Fucked in the head is what I call em.

There are virtually infinite things to shit on us Americans for, and most of them deservedly so. But this one ain’t it.
Give me peanut butter and chocolate or give me death.
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 year ago
gives you peanut butter and chocolate
That being said, this regeme might still give you death if you happen to be too brown.
Zachariah@lemmy.world 1 year ago
peanut butter brown
or
chocolate brown
?

I’m pretty sure it is ragebait written by an American. Non-Americans don’t really care about this at all.
ByteJunk@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Isn’t that the same? If you’re eating peanut butter and chocolate together frequently, you’re probably not long for this world…

The same idiots that say this are the ones who think Nutella is some transcendental ambrosia even though it’s more palm oil than either hazelnuts or cocoa.
ynthrepic@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Nutella mixed with the cheapest American peanut butter is heaven. Thank you globalisation.
gmtom@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Sometimes the greatest sins can become part of our most beloved miracles
AA5B@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Thank you. People love it or hate it but don’t seem to understand it’s just bland palm oil. I want to like it. I’m their core demographic in many ways but there’s not enough flavor to like or dislike, and why would I eat palm oil?

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”.
ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
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.
ayyy@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
I thought I knew what a bad taco was before that episode. They proved me wrong.

This and avoiding taxes are the reasons why your tea is in the harbor

Mostly the taxes thing, but this didn’t help

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-

Abysmal take. Chocolate ice cream with frozen peanut butter swirled in is proof that god loves us.

To whom it may concern:
Please be advised that your meme will be slathered with creamy peanut butter and drizzled with melted chocolate. Afterwards, you may immediately go and pound sand.
Should you decide to spread this misinformation further, we will be forced to place a bounty on you. When you are captured, you will be taken to Hershey Park and doused with Hershey’s chocolate syrup in front of many peanut butter & chocolate lovers.
For good measure, the public will be armed with crunchy peanut butter balls dipped in milk chocolate if you attempt to escape (dark chocolate covered peanut butter balls sold separately).
Sincerely,
The American Committee for Chocolate & Peanut Butter Advancement
and
The Reese’s Foundation
shalafi@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Barbarism! Coating the villain in Hershey’s. You are an animal, not fit to live among civilized men!
Maybe some dark chocolate?
Chrysanthemum@piefed.social 1 year ago
Dark chocolate sold separately, my friend.
dharmacurious@slrpnk.net 1 year ago
Tar and feather then, but use chocolate sauce and roasted peanuts!
simulacra_procession@lemmy.today 1 year ago
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
FishFace@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Europeans don’t eat peanuts? Or chocolate?
rockstarmode@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Why not have both? I’ve lived in the western US my entire life, but I think pickled herring is delicious, and I made rillettes (which is like a pate) just the other day.
VicVinegar@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Eastern US checking in. Three cheers for pickled herring! Can’t get enough!

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?
prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Canada is part of America, just not the USA.
Peanuts and Cocoa are distinctly American, if you can distance applying the term American just to the USA.
Cosmonauticus@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yeah because when I’m aboard ppl always assume I’m Canadian or from Honduras when I say I’m American
CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I’ve executed drone strikes in 3rd world countries for less than the absolute anger this post makes me feel
redhorsejacket@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yeah, but you execute drone strikes in 3rd world countries all the time, CIA_chatbot, how can we tell when you’re doing it out of genuine anger?
CommissarVulpin@lemmy.world 1 year ago
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.
BanMe@lemmy.world 1 year ago
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.

I’ve genuinely never understood how people can stand chocolate and fruit together. Or fruit and coffee for that matter. Chocolate and coffee taste kinda similar to me though so those mix well…
But fruit with either is just super nasty to me.
All that said, the best chocolate I’ve ever had was some imported thing that tasted vaguely of raspberry, but wasn’t actually supposed to. It was just chocolate that got stored with other candies.
proudblond@lemmy.world 1 year ago
If chocolate and coffee taste similar to you, I can see why you wouldn’t like it with fruit!
I like chocolate with my fruit (berries, apple even) but I don’t care for fruit in my chocolate bars, funny enough.
BlueLineBae@midwest.social 1 year ago
Counter point - Justin’s dark chocolate peanut butter cups 🤤
Hegar@fedia.io 1 year ago
This is so undeniably, objectively true.
Peanuts end up in everything because they're very cheap, not because they're that good.
Peanut butter is ... fine. That's all you can honestly say. PB&J is edible at it's best, and then only rarely. Reese's is a testament to how easy it is to sell coagulated sugar and salt. Bougie peanut butter cups are just polished turds.
Thai is the only cuisine that knows what to do with peanuts.
protist@lemmy.world 1 year ago
undeniably, objectively true
proceeds to provide personal opinion
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 year ago
And an undeniably, objectively false one at that!
Hegar@fedia.io 1 year ago
The peanut mania that grips this nation and blinds people to objective fact has you in it's tentacular grasp.
0ops@piefed.zip 1 year ago
“Objectively” is the new “literally”. People are just out there throwing it in sentences without knowing what it means

Sometimes I put peanuts on top of my peanut butter toast.

Reece’s is NOT peanut butter. Not even the same flavor profile.

I just ate some choco covered peanuts. Here, have a choco peanut cookie.
D_C@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
A gazillion years ago I was in a shop that had an american aisle, so I bought some some american chocolate that had peanut butter in it. Reese’s, I think?
Anyways it tasted slightly like chalky chocolate vomit with peanut butter on it.
I thought I’d got a bad batch so the next time I saw some I got something from Hershey’s. Again, chocolate vomit.
Never had any of that shit since.Cadbury’s in the UK have been adding extra things to their chocolate bars for years now. My cynical brain tells me it’s to mask the fact that they’ve changed things and lowered the quality of their products.
When did this happen? A few years after it was sold to Kraft, an american ‘food’ company…BlueAure@infosec.pub 1 year ago
The common explanation is that Hershey’s chocolate contains some amount of butyric acid which tastes/smells like vomit. Adam Ragusea on YT did a pretty solid video on it.
Why Hershey bars taste like vomit (and I love them)
Not all US chocolate tastes like Hershey.
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 1 year ago
American regular grocery store brands of chocolate are horrible. Hershey’s and all the rest. Of course it’s the cheapest ingredients drowned in sugar to cover the otherwise poor taste. Cadbury’s now tastes waxy to me. Used to be pretty good. All in the name of profit.
Aldi in the US actually has really decent chocolate, their Choceur label for milk chocolate is quite good. Good luck finding it, I think the tariffs killed the availability, haven’t seen any for weeks.
dmasterp@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yeah but… Reese peanut butter cups 😍
DearMoogle@piefed.social 1 year ago
Idk how other countries do peanut butter, but ours is usually sweetened. Goes great with candy, dessert, acai bowls, milkshakes, pancakes, crepes, etc. etc
Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Peanut butter is an abomination. Change my mind.
Dasus@lemmy.world 1 year ago

FishFace@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I dunno about that, but I do know Reeses cups taste bad. Too much sweet and salty.
SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 year ago
I’m not American, but here’s what I know about them.
They’ll put chocolate on everything, ranch with everything, deep fry everything (but jot at home bc they can’t cook), put coffee in their melted icecream
Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 year ago
This is truly a shitpost. That man is wrong and should feel bad for ever having uttered that nonsense.
VicVinegar@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I think we think it goes together because of Reese’s. Like we see it as some classic combo. Ill say I’ve tried the combo several other ways and it really only works when the peanut butter is extremely, extremely sweet.
gmtom@lemmy.world 1 year ago
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.
