Jif extra Chunky here.
Smooth is for RINOs
-
Huh. I prefer Skippy over Jif.
Of course, I buy generic. I'm betting that makes me an ultra-conservative.
-
I'm an extra-chunky peanut butter person. We even buy Jif now and again if it's on sale, but usually we buy the store brand.
-
I don't really care about brand as long as it doesn't blow chunks. If I want nuts, I'll buy a bag of peanuts at the circus.
Couldn't read the WP article, but the other one seems to allude to the usual trope about toothless redneck conservatives don't read, but liberals do.
-
Peany Bucker (I'm still saying it that way since it used to PO my mother) of any style and any brand troweled into the trough of a celery stick is a great combination.
I guess that makes me one uh them libertarian types, huh?

Word.
-
I buy freshly squeezed peanut butter from a local store. Ingredients: peanuts. That's all I need.
And I like Trader Joe's dijon mustard best.

Jif Extra Chunky
It's pronounced gif.
-
It's pronounced gif.
Which in turn is pronounced jif =D
Pronunciation of GIF
The creators of the format pronounced the word as "jif" with a soft "G" /dʒɪf/ as in "gym". Steve Wilhite says that the intended pronunciation deliberately echoes the American peanut butter brand Jif, and CompuServe employees would often say "Choosy developers choose GIF", spoofing this brand's television commercials.[11] The word is now also widely pronounced with a hard "G" /ɡɪf/ as in "gift".[12] In 2017, an informal poll on programming website Stack Overflow showed some numerical preference for hard-"G" pronunciation,[13] especially among respondents in eastern Europe, though both soft-"G" and enunciating each letter individually were found to be popular in Asia and emerging countries.[14]

Peter Pan, creamy.

Oh, liberals read all the time....
It's just Harry Potter and other books for juveniles.
-
Jif or cheap and smooth, please. Being toothless means chunky bits hurt!

Harry Potter is a good read.

The natural stuff from Aldi. I'm a libertarian, and I poll at 1%.
-
I guess I shouldn't tell this one to my very liberal mother...
Jif Chucky is the ONLY brand of peanut butter that is ALLOWED in her house...
My conservative Dad didn't give two shits one way or another about brand and had the gourmet standards of the average swine.
-
Brand, chunkiness, refrigerated or not, politics one way or the other, flavor, I don't see anything justatory that gustifies this thread.
-
I make my own sugar-free PB using half unsalted dry roasted peanuts and half Spanish peanuts (Virginia peanuts will do.) I really don't like sweet peanut butter, unless it's *really* sweet as in a Butterfingers or a Reece's PB cup. (but Reece's Pieces are too sweet again)
That's for eating on crackers. For cooking with I either buy Aldi's house brand, or use Wife's jar of Jif. The sugar doesn't matter if I'm making peanut butter cookies.
-
Oh my goodness! Lemme see ...
- I don't eat (or buy) at Arby's
- I don't use Jif (store brand for the win)
- I don't eat (or buy) at Applebee's
- I've never owned a Chevrolet
- I don't use Tyson's anything
- I don't buy at Sonic
- I think I may own one Wrangler shirt (hangs head in shame)
- I don't eat or buy Little Debbie anything
- I don't wear or own any Dockers
- I never buy or use Cool Whip
So I guess I must be a liberal. My parents never told me -- all these years I've been thinking I was a conservative.
-
I don't buy peanut butter. I must be a commie.

"And I like Trader Joe's dijon mustard best."
Oh man, gotta agree with you there. That's some wicked good mustard!
-
On the subject of nut butters and Trader Joe's, their almond butter is excellent. The Kirkland Signature mixed nut and seed butter at Costco is meh in comparison.

My worst pun of the month. But it was only the 7th.
-
Yellow mustard, please.
I don't care which brand of PB, but I prefer smoove.
-
Smooth for me. Brand-indifferent, though I usually reach for Jif or Peter Pan out of tradition. Tried one of the local "all natural" offerings. Unimpressed, especially for the price.
Plain yeller musterd for hamburgers and hot dogs. No real preference, though French's seems to have the best balance. Brown and dijon for things like brats, strong cheeses, and certain recipes.
So glad no one has mentioned the heresy that is beans in chili.

I've been buying and eating Jif long before it was cool. Skippy and Peter Pan suck.
My brothers and I used to shame my mom if she came home with anything other than Jif growing up.
-
Yellow mustard, please.
I used to be like that, then I started trying other mustards several years ago. I know have at least 3 or 4 different mustards in my fridge, including plain old yellow salad mustard. There are a couple German style mustards that are freaking awesome on brats and hotdogs.

Have you guys tried the Trader Joe's Blue Cheese mustard?
OMG! It's good.
-

I'm super happy to have a German store in driving distance for the real deal Bavarian sweet mustard. I love that stuff.
-
The part of my life that doesn't revolve around chocolate anything revolves around Jif Extra Chunky Peanut Butter.
After suffering a spate of Skippy Peanut Butter and Salmonella sandwiches a few years ago, I discovered Jif and have been a fan ever since.

Speaking of mustard, anyone remember French's Onion Mustard? We LOVED that stuff but it hasn't been seen here in YEARS. Shopping a bit back, the wife saw this "Heinz Piccalilli Pickle" mustard-looking stuff and brought a bottle home. First off, it is NOT (very)mustard tasting BUT it IS pretty good stuff, to me anyway! It has little bites of baby pearl onions in it that I LOVE. If ya see it, give it a taste.

Peter Pan, creamy.
I buy Peter Pan as well. (I hope that doesn't make you switch brands. =) ) I have creamy and crunchy though. Depends on use.
I tried Jiff a few times. I don't think I have ever tried Skippy. I am not even sure if stores carry it in my area.

The one article had "owning an air conditioner" in the list of ways to tell if someone is white. Down here, that pretty much means you own your home or trailer. I assume they are excluding car air conditioners as that would include everyone down here.

Break out the googletron. It looks like you can still get it, but have to order it.
-

Have not seen it. Will look for it.

Once again, my privilege is absolutely *expletive deleted*ing awesome.

I've been digging this one lately, I can get it locally at regional grocery chain, HyVee for under $4 a mug. Has a sweet vinegary flavor with a subtle Dijon kick.
