Which is better? Creamy or Crunchy peanut butter?

I don't know where you got that idea from. We're regular purchasers of peanut butter and there's always plenty on the supermarket shelves. I generally prefer smooth but I'm more concerned about the salt levels than the texture. Crunchy is a good variant from time to time.🥜🥜🥜🇦🇺
Every time peanut butter has come up in this forum, Brits wrote that they couldn't understand the American fascination with peanut butter, and they never ate it. :unsure:
So Aussies like peanut butter. :)
 
I used to like the extra crunchy as a kid. But my stomach no longer tolerates nuts, so it's smooth for me. I only buy the kind that I have to stir. If all that's available is unsalted, I just add my own salt as I stir it.

"Once Again" brand is really good but I only get it if it's on sale. A spoon out of the jar is a problem for me also. That pesky bread gets in the way of all the PB goodness. Though a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with coffee for breakfast is good.
 
Smooth, though will buy crunchy if that’s the only option. I will only buy natural - no sugar, no salt, absolutely nothing added. It is a pain having to stir it. Worth it though.
I so hate stirring the PB. It's the only kind I buy also but I buy the salted or add salt if it's not. I found a couple of large stainless knives at PAWS thrift with no serration, they are like little paddles. They work so well for stirring the PB.

They both taste good As an adult I now choose smooth over crunchy because those crunchy bits of peanuts always get stuck between my teeth and it's uncomfortable. I feel an urgent need to floss so I just eat the creamy.
I’m the same. I love crunchy peanut butter but don’t like how easily it sticks to my teeth so prefer smooth. I LOVE a fresh peanut butter and jam sandwich make on fresh homemade bread.
