Peanut Butter and Fluff Sandwich...does it get any better?

yes

fluf sucks almost as much as Nutella, both are fing gross

Brown sauce is OK

Peanut Butter is awsome

Grape jelly is the worst kind of jelly
 
My PB usage that gets me strange looks/comments everytime - pancakes or waffles with peanut butter and syrup. YUM 🙂
 
PB toast such that it melts the peanut butter but not to the point where it dries it up...delicious.
 
I also remember a story from someone on this board about how their English cousins would hog all the peanut butter when they came over...so not all non US residents hate it.
 
Peanut Butter and Apple Jelly is only topped by Peanut Butter and Apple Butter (FTW!!)

I'm American and I almost never eat ketchup on my fries. Honey Mustard is much, much better.

 
The Dutch, who used to "own" Indonesia, use a hot spiced peanut butter as a delicious topping on certain concoctions. Damn, it's good. I forget the exotic name for it. Someone here will know.

Commercial peanut butter in the US, what most of you mean when you say "peanut butter", is disgusting heavy on the corn syrup and other extender crap. Real peanut butter, which is just ground up peanuts, is sublime. You get to add whatever sweet counterpoint you wish.

The closest thing I can think of to brown sauce here is A1 steak sauce.

Its true. The only people that like it are residents of the USA from childhood/born here. I don't know why.. Anyone i've ever talked to thats foreign hates it.

WTH! :shocked:

I grew up with it. It didn't come in a jar, but we ground them and add water to make a dressing for steamed veggie mix. Of course, chili peppers to spice it up.

 
Brown sauce is sort of like the combination of ketchup, mustard, and a tang of worcestershire sauce. I've tried recreating it, but never actually got it down. I just know that it works really well with deep fried fish 🙂

Satay? Chicken satay is chicken w/peanutty sauce, so I dunno if that's what you mean, but that's what comes to mind for me.
