Haha I love it. I don't like peanut butter (or peanuts), but it's still a humourous read. Apparently the existence of smooth peanut butter is controversial, as per the article but also the comments.

Courtesy of Ben G:

I was hoping to open this article and see a single sentence, or at least a list of zero out of ten scores. Smooth peanut butter should be banned.

I prefer crunchy and wonder about the stability of the “smoothers”. Watch out for them! In fact, once introduced to a stranger it should be at least the third question as to which is their preference. Right after “What’s your name?” and “How are you?”. Mustn’t be impolite after all.

All joking aside…seriously don’t trust them. They’re shifty. Those shifty eyed, unstable smooth peanut butter lovin people! How can you not want crunchy? It’s incontheivable!!

What do you think about people who don't like crunchy or smooth?

Smooth in cooking. Crunchy in a sarnie.
