  • Daily Q: Peanut Butter Or Chocolate?

    *ick*

    I thought of this after I had been perusing the tons of awesome submissions y'all have been sending in and this one was just taunting me. Though I could perceive its scrumptiousness, I was not tempted by it. Not in the least. In fact-I was repulsed.

    You see, years ago, I subsisted solely on peanut butter was once a normal American child.

    But sometime later, in college, during either the horrific aftermath of an intoxicant-binge or a cigarette-fueled fit of anti-comfort-food-nausea I realized I could never eat peanut butter again. It was like waking up blind or naked in the woods-like I knew some integral part of me was missing. I just suddenly realized it was too creamy, too peanuty, too buttery, too-UGH-I-JUST-CAN'T, y'know?

    Oh, you don't? Well I don't really know either, I just know I've hated peanut butter since that day and staring at that cake was like watching the post-trauma of a car which had overturned several times off the highway and landed upside down in a river-horrific, scary, confounding, but you can't stop staring. You're just trying to wrap your head around it-it makes me feel so icky and yet I keep exposing myself to it. Why? WHY!?!?!

    I just--can't.

    Anywho, since I randomly gave up one of the world's two best ingredients, I wondered-if y'all had to choose one or the other, which one would it be?
