It’s been a while (I think) since we’ve talked about food, so I come with a question: How do you like your peanut butter?

I like mine totally smooth and plain — just the peanuts. I like the natural saltiness it has in that format, and the flavor profile it brings to something like bananas or chocolate. I usually eat it with foods that bring other flavors, so I don’t need it to be anything other than its natural self. That said, I have enjoyed it on its own and find it lovely.
