National Peanut Butter Lover’s Day

Peanut butter is so delectable that we almost have bacon when we pair it with creamy and dreamy chocolate.

We digress. We digress. Peanut butter ice cream is another favorite of mine. A peanut butter lover's dream come true is a blended smooth with a few chopped nuts and a drizzle of peanut butter syrup.

A monkey at Kellogg's one day dipped his banana in a jar of peanut butter, and he's been ape over the combination ever since. Quite well, banana slices with peanut butter sandwiched between them and chocolate coated in peanut butter make a delectable snack.

Peanut butter and bananas were a dish that was even appropriate for a king. Elvis Presley used to have a peanut butter and banana sandwich or two.

Then peanut butter became a passport and travelled the world. It went well with some shrimp and added a little saucy. The result is a Thai peanut butter shrimp that is so delectable it had to be true love.

Things sparked a little as peanut butter stepped into the stew pot to sweat it out with a spring chick seasoned with some cayenne. African Chicken Peanut Stew is the best tasting thing ever.

With marshmallows, one of the best times peanut butter has ever had is at night. Fudge has a delectable dessert reputation that should be envied.
