Has anyone had any problems with peanut butter or pickles? My kids and i LOVE pickles with a smeer of peanut butter on top like you would with crackers. BUT, after fixing them for the kids, i got to thinking how bad it would be if i could never eat them anymore. It would not be the end of the world for me, but it would realy be a bad storm.... Thanks Brent PS.. Im not a pregnant man, just weird i guess. lol

Crunchy is a little dodge sometimes as it's just weird to "chew" peanut butter.  Creamy is okay.  Nutella is the bomb.  No problems with pickles.

Well now I thought I was the only one!!! My grandmother used to make PB and sweet pickle sandwiches ever since I could remember.  I didn't like sweet pickles so I made one with dill pickles and that became a solid staple for me (especially on Bunny Bread....yummm!) I haven't had that combo since banding but I know I don't have trouble with peanut butter in small doses. .....LOL.....I admit I lick the butter knife when making my daughter's sanwiches (she refuses to try pickles but I'm holding out hope for her since she's only 5).   I do believe that the pickle along with the PB would keep it from gunking up.  Kinda like when I worked at a residential facility and the dietician would mix a bit of rice in the mashed potatoes for the resident's so they wouldn't get stuck.  It helped it fall apart better when swallowed. Oh yeah, I know I'm weird because those tubes have been cut, tied and burned!

I love peanut butter and pickles.  I haven't had it yet since being banded but I have had peanut butter and so far so good, but I haven't had a fill yet either??  I hope we can still eat them.

i have no probs with peanut butter other than once i start , its hard to stop. if u are eating it , make sure it is  natural peanut butter. most peanut butter like kraft or skippy is made with tons icing sugar , thats why it is so smooth. try adams , or make your own. tara
life is what you make it, take what you need , throw out the rest

OK - that is just plain weird - Pickles and peanut butter.  Maybe the universe is just telling you that those 2 things are not meant to be together!  LOL!!! I haven't tried either pickles or peanut butter since getting restriction - so I can't help you with that!

OK now you got me drooling! I forgot all about that combo and now I'm gonna have to go give it a try. DH turned me on to those and I thought he was nuts! But they are delicious>
