I'm an American and as a child I hated peanut butter. I liked peanuts but not peanut butter.

I've had a big weight problem for years and have lost a LOT of weight over the last couple of years. Anyway I am following a diet plan that suggested peanut butter as a snack - but it specified "Natural" which is with NO Sugar. I found I like that. I eat it on a spoon or spread on banana or apple slices. I remember as a child my mother eating in on apples.

If I really had to I could eat peanut butter on saltine crackers but I still can't stand it spread on bread. Also the idea of jelly or jam with it is revolting. I was just not your typical American kid. My favorite lunch was tuna fish sandwiches.
