Would you eat one?

[Kyanimal]

I'd have it if someone bought it for me, wouldn't shell out for it myself.

I'd be willing to buy you one just to see the look on your face when you tried it!

I don't eat meat so obviously a no.

This weekend I was up in Leeds, and a restaurant across the road from my friends house was serving a PB&J burger - a menu item alone that told us all never to go there.

I can understand, and completely appreciate, the vegetarian approach. So, of course, I can "get" your not wanting to try it.

However, for those of us that are omnivores, PB&J Burger?

Hmmm ... might have some possibilities.

Would that maybe include cheese and bacon?

 

[LilBit]

Oh, hell.

 

[JohnnyAnger]

Yeah it was two beef patties, bacon, 'American cheese' (I don't know what that means), crunchy peanut butter and raspberry jam.

I would gladly try any dish with peanut butter introduced. I would not accept a savory dish with sweetened chocolate.

"American Cheese" is processed crap...and it actually does make me gag. I hadn't had it in years and years but last month..I order this omelette from a busy hipster Restaurant with sausage and green peppers and onions and cheese and they actually gave me American Cheese. I had no idea anyone even used that crap anymore..I was shocked. I took it back (to go order) and they said they didn't have anything else...wow! Really????? I told them to throw it in the garbage where it belongs...and I insisted they just keep the money and use it to buy some real cheese for the nest customer...

No. I find peanut butter too sickly.

No I remember a few years ago in Toronto there was a huge news story about people who went to an amusement park ate some strange burger filled with junk food and they had the worst bowel movements for days. Toronto public health was called in and I think they stopped selling the burger.

I keep my skeptical (do I mean cynical?) nature in check by being adventurous.

I would taste.

And fie on American cheese.

Sir Ron LOVES a great hamburger (yes, I am hopelessly American!) but even he has his limits.

Peanut butter cups (Only Reese's or Boyer's Butterscotch Smoothies) are meant to be consumed solo, in my humble opinion.

Hamburgers, the Cadillac of sandwiches, should be adorned with veggies and condiments worthy of its royal stature.

I am partial to Bacon-Blue Cheese burgers, and I can't remember where it was, but I had a reuben-burger (swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Thousand Island dressing on grilled marbled seedless rye bread) that was to die for!

 

[HorndogPaul]

I would definitely try it!

I went to a burger place that had "The King" burger and it was a burger with peanut butter and banana on it and fried. It was super delicious! So I figure this can't be all that bad.

"American Cheese", is basically just Kraft singles eh?
The only place where it's edible is on cheeseburgers. Otherwise it's just like congealed Cheez Whiz to me, and I hate Cheez Whiz. Actually, I've been putting Havarti on my burgers, and it's so much better than the processed shit.

My cousin used to eat Kraft singles plain, he'd just take a bunch to the couch, unwrap them, and eat them in front of the TV. Eeeew! (then again, he also used to eat instant noodles raw; he'd just eat the noodle brick dry. He also put ketchup on his Kraft Dinner, which I know is popular, but I still think the combination is unpleasant.)

I do no like Reese's peanut butter cups. I do not like chocolate and peanut butter combined at all.

Chocolate covered peanuts on the other hand...

 

[Daximus]

Elvis would have loved that shit.

 

[lambdaboy]

NEVER but it certainly makes me understand why some London Theatres are putting in wider seat for people from North America LOL.

Me too. In-N-Out, which you won't be able to try anytime soon without some serious traveling, is by far the best chain-burger I've had. I like hamburgers to "speak on their own merits" and not drown them in condiments. My ideal way to eat a burger is with one slice of tomato, and some lettuce (lettuce is good for adding moisture, and irrelevant for the taste).

Sauteed mushrooms and/or onions (and, no, NOT raw onions...Gack!) are optional.

Though I DO NOT like peanut butter cups (because I don't like peanut butter), I agree that they are ONLY intended to be eaten by themselves, not mixed with other stuff.

"American Cheese", is...just like congealed Cheez Whiz to me, and I hate Cheez Whiz.

I have yet to figure out **WHY** Cheez-Whiz is actually an acceptable ingredient on "traditional" cheese steaks AT ALL, even in some or most of the authentic restaurants in South Philly?

 

[Vitamin]

I say this as someone who loves Reese's.


NOPE. NOPE. NOPE.

The question is, would I eat one and the answer is no, but I would take a bite, just to see what it's like. I can't guarantee I wouldn't spit it out if I hated it.

I'm with Frank that hamburgers should be simple. For me, a little blue cheese and dijon mustard is good, maybe crisp bacon...no catsup, no veggies, no nothin' else. Oh, and don't give me one of those skimpy fast food burgers...make it 8 oz. or fuhgeddaboudit.

Neil!

Did Telly hijack your account?

One of my favorite ways to cook is "Curious Cupboard". That is, coming up with something for dinner with only what you happen to have on hand.

Once I did a tuna casserole with peanuts tossed in. It turned out pretty good!

Sometime later, when tuna was the most obvious base, again, I remembered the peanuts, but didn't have any. SO ... I figured peanut butter would work.

It didn't!
