JimShortz Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 If you can't find any good peanut butter retaurants you can of course buy it from the supermarket.... or if that's too expensive why not make your own peanut butter. Here's a really interesting way to make your own peanut butter, and it's reall cheap. Enjoy!
Ajarn Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 If Fritos corn chips did not cost so much to be imported here, I would insert them in my PB PB sandwich. But potato chips (crisps) work fine. My toaster is only used for toast for PB s/w.Jelly means jam. It is my understanding that Jelly is the heavily processed and filtered stuff. But Jam has the fruit seeds and other parts of the fruit... and tastes better to me
BigSnake Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 HMMMMM!! Peanut Butter Sandwich in a Restaurant, a never ever for this old cowboy, maybe worthy of a try if I ever see such a Restaurant. I just get my jar of Skippy Chunk, Lotus/Tops supermarket and skip on home and make the sandwich myself
gpdjohn Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Munch, munch, much a bunch of Frito's, Corn chips. Elvis was a PB and banana fan, no jelly or jam. And they had to be pan fried.
PeaceBlondie Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Ajarn, maybe we were what LBJ addressed as 'mah fellow Ah-murricans.' Brits seem to call jelled fruit 'jam' and reserve 'jelly' for Jello. I think Smuckers sells a blend of pre-mixed PB and jelly.
mongoose Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Why dont you try suang prung. Im sure theyve got a nice restaurant there.it might get you away from your computer. Thank you very much for that, ajarnpim, on behalf of Ian, and for your concern, on my own behalf. Could you kindly provide some directions to Suang Prung? No need for directions mate, free transport, they will pick you up.
Rasseru Posted May 16, 2009 Author Posted May 16, 2009 Could you kindly provide some directions to Suang Prung? No need for directions mate, free transport, they will pick you up. Boy oh boy, someone else with information about the acquisition of which one hesitates to contemplate.
WinnieTheKhwai Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 I'm afraid that can be mostly blamed on the small minority of very vocal posters who are so offended by such threads. Um, strangely for other topics if there is a small minority who complains then the topics ARE closed. Those people complaining obviously being the ones who don't want any information getting out on the topic...
orang37 Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Oh, oh, uhhh ... Fritos, Skippy chunky peanut butter. The ghosts of my farang's past taste buds are clanking their chains and screaming in the radioactive hel_l they've gone to ! I can get down some smooth Skippy by mixing it with mayonnaise or rice-bran or other oil, but currently have found heaven in the tahini (Kasem sells it under the name "sesame cream") from Mae Hong Son mixed into soy-milk. Fritos, and as big a possible a jar of Skippy Chunky, was one of my standard requests to ask friends coming over to bring along for me along with Savrez high-tension nylon guitar strings, Scientific American, Discovery, and a few other magazines for computer programmers. Look : you've squeezed tears out of the coprolithic fossil that once was a Farang's heart ! ~o:37;
WaiWai Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 O, orang, I fear the dark clouds of contention threaten to overwhelm yet again, not just in the coprolithic fossil that once was your Farang heart, but in this very thread; deceptively bland as it may appear, its inherent stickiness has quickly oozed into view. Why is a peanut butter made in the USA called Skippy? Skippy is an Australian icon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skippy_the_Bush_Kangaroo). Australian peanut butter brands are Kraft, Sanitarium and Eta, I think ... or were? I was a crunchy Eta eater. Best on Uneeda biscuits (crackers). Then again, Vegemite has been called the peanut butter of Australia. The best chips/crisps are Smith's (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Smith's_Snackfood_Company). Of course, if you haven't munched through a packet of Twisties, you simply haven't lived.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twisties) I do hope my use of Wiki references is non-contentious.

Jingthing Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 (edited) Careful. Trans fats! Even when the label says no trans fats, they are lying unless it is 100 percent nuts (legal US trick). Edited May 16, 2009 by Jingthing
Rasseru Posted May 16, 2009 Author Posted May 16, 2009 Freud would have a field day with that baby. In some 'kindergarten'? Horrid thought!
Jingthing Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 (edited) Freud would have a field day with that baby. In some 'kindergarten'? Horrid thought! The PB clearly represents feces, and feces represent money ... Baby Bernie Madoff perhaps? Tip to baby: do NOT open a peanut butter restaurant! Edited May 16, 2009 by Jingthing
EndofDays Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Our dear friend Mr Ian Forbes is a little too shy -- pause to stifle uproarious guffaws -- to start this thread himself, so as a favour to him, I will launch it.Mr Forbes very much wishes to know which restaurant in Chiangmai offers the best peanut butter sandwiches, and on his behalf I am seeking here your recommendations. I am unable to say whether he prefers a creamy or chunky style of peanut butter sandwich, so please offer suggestions in both categories, but be careful to note in which type of sandwich your recommended restaurant specialises. Thank you all kindly, in advance, as I quickly duck out to avoid the kicks and blows. Uhm, I'm confused. We are not talking about actual peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches, are we? Because I really like peanut butter and jelly sandwhiches, the real ones...I'm fat leave me alone. So is this code? If it is a code, use something that won't attract fat people to this post...

God, I love fritos...my battery commander once started eating my NEW bag of fritos when we were in Iraq...I showed back up at my vehicle and there he was...muchning away...I could have killed him. So are we still talking about food? Edited May 16, 2009 by EndofDays

This is a pure corruption of the PBJ!!!!!! Fight this evil concoction. If God, or Bhudda, wanted PB and J to be mixed he would have created it that way. This is a ploy to dumb down and lazify the world! It is meant to be seperated and then layered together into a beautiful piece of culinary art.
WaiWai Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 In some 'kindergarten'? Horrid thought! Absolutely . This is a perfect example of the inevitable ugliness towards which all discussions can be assumed to lead.

Sawasdee Khrup, Khun EndOfDays, May I say what a delightful nym you have there ! My farang once considered trying to change his name legally to "Apocalyptico Thanatos," but then, fortunately, he was, you might say, re-possessed by moi before he could complete such shenanigans. And then Mel Gibson made another of his "snuff movies" using the title "Apocalyptico;" imho, the best thing about said movie was that Gibson was not in it. A movie I liked by the way; some great shots of jungles, but far too few close-ups of ripe fruit. "Confusion" is good ! One of the one-melon teachings of Ur-Orang is : "confusion is the vine that will not bear your weight and gives you the fall on your face into a termite mound that will teach you something as well as being lunch." I used to love pbj sandwiches myself ! Blueberry jam, ahhh. If you are tormented in any way by other people revelling in peanut butter, you have do have my deepest empathies, since I too find just the thought of Skippy Crunchy doing a weird tango with my farang's ninety-percent-dead salivary glands. Perhaps the kind of feeling that a bronze equestrian statue in a park has as pigeons annoint with dooky ? I'd cut a deal with the Dark One, Gnaro-Ru, himself if I could get the farang mouth slobbering again ! Of course this is code, as is everything else written here, but here we hide pictures, and the nakedness of the heart, in a fur of words. And I think you'd probably agree with me that human fur is really pretty pathetic. best, ~o:37;

I am just saying that you should use something else...I don't know, like bead sheets, I mean who really cares about bed sheets...you can't eat them and it won't get people like me mixed up. How about brussel sprouts or some food that the majority find torrid. How about cauliflower? To me its sponginess represents nothing less than the finality of our benign lives. PBJ, the real kind, is hope.....

Ulysses G. Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Steamed or stir fried broccoli on brown rice with shrimp is very nutritious and the flavor can't be beat.
gpdjohn Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Or Broccoli, steamed, covered in either a bleu or chedder ( sharp ) cheese sauce. Surley not nutritious, but darn it, its good.
Ulysses G. Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 It IS nutritious and lots of calcium and protein, but lots of fat as well.
