Good morning and happy Monday - Today is a "sticky" day - its March 1st and do you know what holiday today is "National Peanut butter Day!!!" Peanut butter is probably the most popular spread for sandwiches in the United States.
Some facts about peanuts:
1. Peanuts are actually not nuts at all - they are ac
tually legumes, like peas and lentils!!!
2. Americans eat 3 pounds of peanut butter per person each year!!!
3. One acre of peanuts will make 30,000 peanut butter sandwiches!!!
4. Arachibutyrophobia is the fear of getting
peanut butter stuck to the roof of your mouth!!

ReplyDeleteahhh PB is the best (except for almond butter)
ReplyDeletebut omg I swear I probably eat way more than 3 lbs of PB in a year...1 jar is like a pound and I go through a jar like every month. (It's the cheapest of all my nut butters)
Great post! I hope your week has been fantabulous!
And happy March, too! I hope your MONTH will be a lot better than mine was last month!
February is so icky, non?

oops! I forgot! Favortie brand: Maranatha roasted, unsalted, no stir PB
ReplyDeleteFavorite way to eat it: on carrots, in a peanut-butter-carrot sandwich, or with whipped banana oats and cinnamon. YUMMY! It's good on EVERYTHING! Sweet and savory!
