    There's a burger place here that has a burger on its menu with cheese, bacon and pb.  I always get them to add pickles.  SO good.

  • Peanut butter and pickles? EW! I can't wrap my head around that one...

    My favorite would be PB with honey (sometimes with banana too)... followed closely by a regular old PB&J. I lived off PB and Marshmallow creme in college, but it's been years since I've had that now.

    In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!

    @lfk2013 It's soo good! But probably not good for you at all. Lol My mom used to make them, her family is all from the Alabama/Arkansas area, I don't know if it's a regional thing or just that they're sugarholics. :)

  • Mmmm I love peanut butter so much.  I have to have Dh put it on the top shelf of a cabinet that I cannot reach because I cannot be trusted with it.  So if I want it, I either have to drag a chair to the kitchen to get into that cabinet or ask Dh for it.

    I love it with chocolate, on ice cream, with cheese, just big ol' spoon fulls of it, on toast, on celery, etc.

  • Now I want to try PB and pickles. I usually do mashed berries or preserves.

    I could hold you for a million years
    To make you feel my love.
  • Also I like to mix PB with a little yogurt so it isn't so sticky.

    I could hold you for a million years

  • I like jam (raspberry or strawberry) or honey or sugar.

    Also, I love how this is prefaced with CPW on Friday. :P

    Yep. That's me and my legacy around these parts!

    The only correct answer to this poll is pickles.
