In our house it’s the exact opposite. The girls in the family love crunchy peanut butter and the boys like creamy. I always have both kinds on hand 😉

Thanks for dropping past my blog! I like your blog, great idea! I’d have to disagree with you on the peanut butter thing though, I much prefer crunchy and in Australia crunchy has way more shelf space devoted to it in the supermarket! I’d get pretty annoyed if I accidentally bought smooth! 🙂

No way! I can’t believe that my fellow women-folk don’t love the crunch. When it’s crunchy, every bite is a little bit different. That’s what makes me unable to quit eating it straight out of the jar.
