So what do people think of peanut butter? It's a staple of many families, so I'm wondering how people use it or if they use it at all.

It's super gross plain, though a lot of people I know just grab a spoon and eat it that way.

I like it on sandwiches (with jelly, honey, or marshmallow fluff) or on fruit. Nothing too exotic.

Peanut butter and vegemite. Soo good, although everyone looks at me funny when I say that.

Peanut butter by itself is good, until you end up feeling like your throat is full of stickyness. Thats usually a good time to stop eating it, or to go put it on something, or obtain delicious peanut butter cookies instead.

I don't always want peanut butter, but when I do, I want loads of it. If I'm not in the mood, it has this horrible aftertaste.

As for coffee, I'm under the impression that few people actually like it. They can't stand it unless it has loads of sweeteners or whatever in it. Am I correct in this observation?

I don't think so. I like the actual flavor of coffee. But for me, it's hard to taste it above the bitterness and how metallic your mouth tastes after half a cup of black coffee.

Cream mellows all that out to the point where I can actually taste the flavor and enjoy all the subtleties. Kind of like how some people water down their booze just a bit so they don't have to make the painface when they drink it.

As for the sugar, meh. I put sugar in my tea. Doesn't mean I don't like tea. It means I like sweet tea.

I love fruits. Oranges, cherries, watermelon, cantaloupe, grapes, honeydew... you get the picture. However, I hate mixed fruit bowls/cups more than any other sweet thing. I couldn't explain why, but something about mixed fruits just engages my gag reflex with every spoonful. I try my best to avoid them.

Peanut butter isn't really a 'thing' here, though you can buy it. While I'm not a fan, it does taste quite ok. I suppose one could use it in cooking or baking to make something.

As for coffee, I'm under the impression that few people actually like it. They can't stand it unless it has loads of sweeteners or whatever in it. Am I correct in this observation?

Most people I know like coffee. Over half of those like it with a bit of milk and/or sugar. The rest prefer black. They like the taste. It should be said that around here coffee consumption is very ingrained in the culture which probably helps hooking a lot of people in on the stuff. I myself don't really like cofffee, but when I do drink it I put some milk and it become quite drinkable, while even a teaspoon of sugar makes it far too sweet. I guess it goes in the same category as salt liquorice, olives, alcohol and others as an acquired taste.

I have trouble with mixed fruit bowls too. Fruit cocktail, for example. Maybe it's all the different consistencies mixed together, or maybe it's because I'm not a big fan of pears.

Otherwise, I love mixed fruit tastes.

I actually don't eat fruit. There's just something about the texture of virtually every fruit I've ever tried...either too pulpy, too seedy, too "fleshy" (this is why I don't eat tomatoes either, unless pulverized into sauce).

I'm fine with fruit juice, though I don't drink it that often.

Fruit is awesome. Maybe not mixed fruit so much (especially when mixed together with that corn syrup stuff), but individually they can make just about any flavor you can imagine. Gimme an hour, and I might be able to give a complete list of every fruit I like :P

Anyway, we were supposed to have some sea bass tonight for dinner. Sadly, it wasn't thawed all the way. So we had grilled cheese sandwiches and oven fries instead. While those were tasty, I still wanted that fish.
