Peanuts are legumes/nut-esque peas and cashews are fruit from a biological perspective, sure, but like the claim that strawberries, raspberries and blackberries aren't berries, but bell peppers and bananas are, it's just a case of the "official" definition being wrong rather than the average person

These are strange times for Berry Club... Strange times

I don't know what Grape Nuts are, but I know they're pretty fucking tasty and they got the absolute CRONCH. They could sit in a bowl of milk for a week and still be crunchy af.

They can also pave a 4-lane freeway in North Korea.

As a kid we would add milk, heat in up in the microwave and top with honey. Not much crunch this way though.

I liked to mix them half and half with granola, then add milk and microwave.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 year ago

Grapenut base, granola topper, add milk. It's basically perfect.

They're called that because they are the size of grape seeds. Why anyone thought that made them appealing is beyond me. Grape nut flakes are pretty good though

I thought it was because the guy who invented them called glucose "grape sugar" because cereal people in that era were entirely detached from reality, and he thought they tasted nutty. And that baking the cereal released glucose.

Oh, well that makes perfect sense. Wait, no it doesn’t. I don’t call lemon seeds Lemon Nuts.

grapeseed oil peanut butter isn’t immensely uncommon.

I don't think I've ever heard of grape jam. Usually I have them with strawberry jam, and I guess raspberry jam would work just as well too.

[–] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, but grape jelly is a pretty common choice for PB&Js.

[–] blackn1ght@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Can't say I've heard of grape jelly either. When you say jelly, do you mean jam? Or are you talking about the wibbly-wobbly stuff that kids love? Because I dunno how you'd put that into a sandwich

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

So alike... So different...

Jam is made of fruit. Jelly is made of fruit juice, so it's smoother. Jell-O is the wobbly thing and would not make a good sandwich.

I'm sure it's different in different parta of the world, but atleast in the US, Jelly is pretty similar to jam, but usually more processed, without any little chunks of fruit in it.

Over here Grape jelly and Strawberry Jam/Jelly are the most common to find in stores.

lingonberry jam makes the best PB&Js in my opinion.

So the teal is just other variety of nuts?

And y'all don't put them in pb&j sammies?
