I love peanut butter on warm toast. When I go out for breakfast, I can get a side order of toast, and there are usually individual sealed plastic containers of jelly, jam and marmalade on the table or counter. How about peanut butter in the same form? I know it would make mothers with small children forever grateful, too.

Peanut Butter Slices https://web.archive...//www.pbslices.com/
Exist(ed). Who knew! [jutta, Aug 25 2006, last modified Sep 04 2022]

Smucker's 3/4 oz Peanut Butter http://www.smuckerf...details.asp?code=85
More like what the poster had in mind, I'm guessing. [jutta, Aug 25 2006]

Inspiration? Cream_20Cheese_20Rings

Jif to go http://www.jif.com/...ails.asp?prodID=572
This is slightly larger than single-serving - maybe a good size to take on vacation? Smuckers owns Jif. [jutta, Aug 29 2006]

love or hate? [xenzag, Aug 29 2006]

[+] from me. Even if it does exist it's not widespread enough yet. I can't really see how a peanut butter slice would work and pbslices.com doesn't enlighten me.

Individual portions of peanut paste available at any McDonald's in Oz. Shirley you have them too?
-- ConsulFlaminicus, Aug 26 2006


No. I don't really think they have them commonly here. & Why do they look at me so funny when I want a Peanut Butter & Cheese grilled sandwich? It's frickin' American! (Elvis, Hello?) Maybe it's their perception that I have a foriegn accent.

[marked-for-deletion] widely known to exist. In my experience, peanut butter is almost always present as a single-serve option in these situations, along with jam, marmalade, marmite etc.
-- Texticle, Aug 28 2006


Why not add a mini plastic spreader under the foil cap? There, now it's a new idea :)

//peanut butter is almost always present as a single-serve option in these situations//

It makes sense in an obvious duh sort-of way but I have never seen pb in a single serving option even though I work in a grocery store and I go out to eat in actual restaurants and stuff. So there.

The single slice of peanut butter in the link looks kind of creepy to me. I'm not sure I trust peanutbutter that retains its shape like that. It's just not right.
-- NotTheSharpestSpoon, Aug 28 2006


I don't think i'd like the sliced peanut butter. I'd have to spread the slice again to make it gooier.

/I have never seen pb in a single serving option/

Clearly neither has the author of the idea. It's out there, though. Believe it.
-- Texticle, Aug 28 2006


I can't believe it. I just can't, the whole fabric of my life will be forever change. Don't you understand that what you are saying, if true, will destroy everything that I hold dear and true? < Looks at Smucker's link>

Hey, looky there! A single serving peanut-butter package. Well, clearly [marked-for-deletion]. I mean dang [Rm Brz], you should do some research first, instead of posting ideas that *everyone* already knows about. Sheesh.
-- NotTheSharpestSpoon, Aug 28 2006


My research has been of the hands on variety. As someone who has worked in the restaurant industry for many years, in many capacities, I have access to wholesale markets to the trade only. (Yes, I can buy steak and lobster wholesale. No, I won't get it for you.) I have seen single serve sizes of many things in these trade-only markets, from pancake syrup to sugar packets, cheese, crackers, jellies and preserves. I have never seen peanut butter, which is why I felt reasonably assured that this did not exist. And what is this "Marmite"? Sounds like a spread made from bugs.

[Rm Brz] marmite marmite marmite marmite marmite marmite marmite marmite marmite !!!!

Now there's a thing to start a war. I'm declaring my hand as a Marmite lover. Now who's in my gang?
-- xenzag, Aug 29 2006


I love marmite. Salt, yeast, tar-like appearance - what's not to like?
-- Texticle, Aug 29 2006


I've never been, but apparently the saying is true that one doesn't visit G.B. for the food.
