There are virtually infinite things to shit on us Americans for, and most of them deservedly so. But this one ain’t it.
Give me peanut butter and chocolate or give me death.
Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 2 months ago
gives you peanut butter and chocolate
That being said, this regeme might still give you death if you happen to be too brown.
Zachariah@lemmy.world 2 months ago
peanut butter brown
or
chocolate brown

I’m pretty sure it is ragebait written by an American. Non-Americans don’t really care about this at all.

Isn’t that the same? If you’re eating peanut butter and chocolate together frequently, you’re probably not long for this world…

The same idiots that say this are the ones who think Nutella is some transcendental ambrosia even though it’s more palm oil than either hazelnuts or cocoa.

Nutella mixed with the cheapest American peanut butter is heaven. Thank you globalisation.

AA5B@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Thank you. People love it or hate it but don’t seem to understand it’s just bland palm oil. I want to like it. I’m their core demographic in many ways but there’s not enough flavor to like or dislike, and why would I eat palm oil?

I laugh my ass off when every few years someone combines peanuts and jelly on the Great British Bake-off and literally every single time all the other British people are like “wow, you have invented literally a brand new innovative and delicious cuisine”.
ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
There was an episode I remember where they explored Mexican cuisine and a contestant said ‘Gacky-molo’ for ‘Guacamole’ and that has stuck with me since.

To whom it may concern:
Please be advised that your meme will be slathered with creamy peanut butter and drizzled with melted chocolate. Afterwards, you may immediately go and pound sand.
Should you decide to spread this misinformation further, we will be forced to place a bounty on you. When you are captured, you will be taken to Hershey Park and doused with Hershey’s chocolate syrup in front of many peanut butter & chocolate lovers.
For good measure, the public will be armed with crunchy peanut butter balls dipped in milk chocolate if you attempt to escape (dark chocolate covered peanut butter balls sold separately).
Sincerely,
The American Committee for Chocolate & Peanut Butter Advancement
and
The Reese’s Foundation

Maybe some dark chocolate?

Dark chocolate sold separately, my friend.

I’ll assume this is a very European take, and point out that Europeans don’t even ever eat peanuts or peanut butter anyways as it was written off as colonist fodder unfit for their ‘queenly’ pallette. They also don’t like corn, which has the juice, so like yea man we know their tastes are stuck in like the 18th century. Go on darling, have your fermented herring and duck pate 😬 we’ll continue actually using the spices and flavors from the new world
FishFace@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Europeans don’t eat peanuts? Or chocolate?
rockstarmode@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Why not have both? I’ve lived in the western US my entire life, but I think pickled herring is delicious, and I made rillettes (which is like a pate) just the other day.

Woah Woah Woah. I’m Canadian and peanut butter and chocolate is also a thing here. Peanut butter may be my favourite thing. Why am I catching strays?
prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
Canada is part of America, just not the USA.
Peanuts and Cocoa are distinctly American, if you can distance applying the term American just to the USA.
Cosmonauticus@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Yeah because when I’m aboard ppl always assume I’m Canadian or from Honduras when I say I’m American

I’ve genuinely never understood how people can stand chocolate and fruit together. Or fruit and coffee for that matter. Chocolate and coffee taste kinda similar to me though so those mix well…
But fruit with either is just super nasty to me.
All that said, the best chocolate I’ve ever had was some imported thing that tasted vaguely of raspberry, but wasn’t actually supposed to. It was just chocolate that got stored with other candies.
proudblond@lemmy.world 2 months ago
If chocolate and coffee taste similar to you, I can see why you wouldn’t like it with fruit!
I like chocolate with my fruit (berries, apple even) but I don’t care for fruit in my chocolate bars, funny enough.

When I was a kid, my family went to go visit some extended family in rural southern France. It was going to be over Halloween, and since the French don’t celebrate it, we brought some American Halloween candy for them to try. To our surprise, they loved it, especially the Reese’s cups. We had expected them to find it gross, since they had much higher quality chocolate in Europe.
BanMe@lemmy.world 2 months ago
A bar of Hershey’s, you can really taste the butyric acid that forms during their unique process. In a Reece’s cup, the high sugar content of the filling (it’s not really even peanut butter) overpowers it. I actually like Reece’s but Hershey’s is a last resort chocolate.

This is so undeniably, objectively true.
Peanuts end up in everything because they're very cheap, not because they're that good.
Peanut butter is ... fine. That's all you can honestly say. PB&J is edible at it's best, and then only rarely. Reese's is a testament to how easy it is to sell coagulated sugar and salt. Bougie peanut butter cups are just polished turds.
Thai is the only cuisine that knows what to do with peanuts.

D_C@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
A gazillion years ago I was in a shop that had an american aisle, so I bought some some american chocolate that had peanut butter in it. Reese’s, I think?
Anyways it tasted slightly like chalky chocolate vomit with peanut butter on it.
I thought I’d got a bad batch so the next time I saw some I got something from Hershey’s. Again, chocolate vomit.
Never had any of that shit since.Cadbury’s in the UK have been adding extra things to their chocolate bars for years now. My cynical brain tells me it’s to mask the fact that they’ve changed things and lowered the quality of their products.
When did this happen? A few years after it was sold to Kraft, an american ‘food’ company…BlueAure@infosec.pub 2 months ago
The common explanation is that Hershey’s chocolate contains some amount of butyric acid which tastes/smells like vomit. Adam Ragusea on YT did a pretty solid video on it.
Why Hershey bars taste like vomit (and I love them)
Not all US chocolate tastes like Hershey.
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 2 months ago
American regular grocery store brands of chocolate are horrible. Hershey’s and all the rest. Of course it’s the cheapest ingredients drowned in sugar to cover the otherwise poor taste. Cadbury’s now tastes waxy to me. Used to be pretty good. All in the name of profit.
Aldi in the US actually has really decent chocolate, their Choceur label for milk chocolate is quite good. Good luck finding it, I think the tariffs killed the availability, haven’t seen any for weeks.

Idk how other countries do peanut butter, but ours is usually sweetened. Goes great with candy, dessert, acai bowls, milkshakes, pancakes, crepes, etc. etc

This is truly a shitpost. That man is wrong and should feel bad for ever having uttered that nonsense.
VicVinegar@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I think we think it goes together because of Reese’s. Like we see it as some classic combo. Ill say I’ve tried the combo several other ways and it really only works when the peanut butter is extremely, extremely sweet.
gmtom@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Real. Peanut butter in general is so ass. Basically every other nut butter is superior yet Americans love to shove that gross, musty shite into everything.
