Hi, Ted:

> I still do. Does that mean I am still a child?No. It just means you didn't learn your lesson about thighs.
> Beardy, it has about the best nutrition you can get. It is *full* of protein and vitamins. The latest "food pyramid" has nuts listed as a significant source of protein, and I definitely get my share of PB, usually as PB&J sandwiches.
Yes, but in moderation. It's excessively high in sugar and fat. I like to slather on the PB thickly, sans jam (which, IMO, is far preferable to gooey, blobby, icky jelly).
> Just make sure you get some exercise to take care of that "excess" weight,
I'm the queen of exercise, but it doesn't counter the peanut butter; it counters the other stuff.
>and stick with the PB.
Would that be peanut butter or psycho babble? : )>
> (PS: I think PB is primarily an American thing. I don't think most other cultures eat PB much.)
I think the Brits eat that hazelnut spread--what's it called? Nutella? Yum.
