Why do non-Americans hate peanut butter? Especially the Latinos and Irish.

I read something recently that said American peanut butter is required to be 90% peanuts but that European countries don't have the same requirement. USA actually exports a lot of peanut butter to Europe because peanut butter made in Europe is supposedly a lower percentage of peanuts and doesn't taste as good, and a lot of people don't like it.

It's just not part of the culture here. I actually use pure peanut butter for cooking and to make my own protein bars, but I'm in the minority.

I can't blame them if they have to eat whatever garbage is on the shelf. The only good nut butters are freshly ground and contain only that nut and nothing else.

It's not fucking peanut butter the process sucks every drop of peanut oil out of it.
If you see skippy "natural" or the like it's the same exact process except they shove a tiny amount of peanut oil back into the finished product along with palm oil that hasn't been hydrogenated.
It's not peanut butter and I don't care what the feds legally allow brands to print on their labels.

Yeah. Mine has imported cheese too. As well as some imported cured meats. Still some things I cannot find that I had access to when I lived in the cities, but shocking.

The produce is actually higher quality than the damned grocery stores in the neighborhood too for some odd reason, though that may not be the case everywhere.

Maranatha is pretty good, but expensive. I usually get the cheap uncut stuff from that store without brands or that store for people who don't want to shop at Wally World.

I was making it at home before that store was here because the peanuts I was buying were cheaper than any uncut butter I could find. It's never good to add oil. Just peanuts becomes pourable when ground finely enough.
