Readers give thumbs-ups to Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups but say Peanut Butter Kisses are misses.
Both come in orange and black wrappers.
Both have a peanut buttery flavor.
And both contain the mysterious ingredient “soy lecithin. ”
But that’s where similarities end between Wichita’s most loved Halloween candy (Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups) and Wichita’s most loathed Halloween candy (Peanut Butter Kisses).

MOULTRIE — Tifton businessmen were spreading their love of peanut butter at Sunbelt Expo this week.

The Miss Peanut Butter and Nutter Butter Kids Pageant will be held at 6 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 7 at the We Piddle Around Theater in Brundidge.
The pageant is sponsored by the Pike County Branch of the American Red Cross and all proceeds will be used for Red Cross programs in Pike County.
“We have 15 participants in the pageant from the Nutter Butter Kids division to the Miss Peanut Butter Queen division,” said Jane Thrash, local Red Cross director. “We invite everyone to come out and support these young people as they compete for the opportunity to serve as ambassadors for their community.”
Thrash said the winners in each division will represent the Peanut Butter Festival during the month of October and on Festival day, Oct. 28.
“They will also participate in the Troy University Homecoming Parade in November and other events in Brundidge throughout the year,” she said.
Featured entertainment for the Miss Peanut Butter Pageant will be SheBANG! cloggers from Troy.
“Pike County Junior Miss Courtney Brunson will be the emcee for the pageant,” Thrash said. “She is a member of SheBANG! and will also be performing.”
Miss Pike County Rachel Watson will also assist with the pageant.
Admission to the pageant will be $3 for those ages 12 and older and $2 for those under 12.
Members of the Collegiate Red Cross and the Junior Red Cross will assist with the pageant.
“The purpose of the Miss Peanut Butter and Nutter Butter Kids Pageant is to select young people who will assist us in promoting the Peanut Butter Festival and the agricultural community during the coming year,” Thrash said. “And in doing so, we are able to raise funds for the programs offered to local residents through the American Red Cross.”
That is no workout accident. That’s creamy peanut butter on a stationary bike.
Here’s a simple sandwich I made with peanut butter and eggs.
Ingredients:
Peanut Butter
3 eggs
2 toasted slices of bread
1 teaspoon of oil
Salt to taste
Toast the bread. Slab on your peanut butter of choice on the toasts. Make sure the toasts are hot enough to melt the peanut butter. Fry your eggs (eggshells optional). Place the fried eggs on the toasts with peanut butter. ENJOY!!
This one was kinda special. I was getting a little hungry so I thought about building myself a peanut butter sandwich. As I was building my sandwich, I go t to thinking about what other “sandwich” can I make with peanut butter. How about a laptop sandwich!!! So i immediately booted up my laptop to give it that extra toasty feeling, and dumped two spatula-size peanut butter globs on it. TADA!!! Peanut butter on a toasty dell laptop!!
I was thinking of just spreading a very thin layer on the guitar’s top, but decided not too. Instead, I slapped on a whole glob of creamy peanut butter. As you can see, gravity decided to take over, and it started to slowly creep down the face of the guitar, onto the carpet. Don’t worry PB lovers, I was able to save it.

Mine is 4 pounds of creamy peanut butter.
Every day they come, from far and wide, making the pilgrimage to the Downbeat Café with one thing on their minds: peanut butter. Or, more precisely, peanut-butter cookies: crispy, flaky, slightly crumbly, sand-dollar-size handmade cookies, pasted together with preternaturally smooth peanut-butter filling, that have developed a following. Some fans are casual snackers. Others are die-hard devotees. All are comforted by the sight of that giant glass jar on the counter, which fills up each morning with the day’s batch. And when that jar is empty, there is often panic. I’ve seen it happen: A customer in search of cookies enters, glimpses the barren glass and turns ashen with grief. Recently, a two-day cookie dry spell threatened to sow chaos and confusion into some people’s lives. “Now, they’ve started planning,” says Crissy Carter, who works the morning shift at the Downbeat. “They call in to make sure they’re here.” Arrangements are often made ahead of time to pick up a batch for a party. “I don’t even call them cookies anymore. I call them peanut-butter crazies!” says longtime Downbeat peanut-butter-cookie enthusiast Kelly Sears.
