Both are pastes made of mashed beans (peanuts and chickpeas are beans.) They also have a similar nutrient profile and are both used for similar dishes.

    I’ve had that. I thought it was vile, but to each their own. The friend that made it for me loves it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      It tastes like… peanuts? What could be vile about it? I guess you could mix in some sugar and other oil if desired, since that’s really all other peanut butters have.

        It was the hot sauce. Some combination of something in the hot sauce flavor profile mixed with the celery and PB didn’t work for me. I like celery and PB, just not with hot sauces (I’ve tried a few over the years).

        Edit: I love peanut sauce in Thai food, if that’s what you were talking about

          Oh, I get it, you don’t mean the fresh ground peanut butter but the celery-pb-hot sauce thing. I thought you replied to a different comment I made.

          I eat hot sauce on absolutely everything so it seemed really normal to me.

            Oh, fresh-ground PB can be kinda “blah” for me. Also the constant need to mix it because it settles… I prefer the sugary, processed stuff! Although, at least I’m a crunchy guy!

            Hot sauce, on the other hand, I like, but not on everything, lol
