I was just leaving my flat to go and buy some obligatory Saturday night peanut butter (crunchy, of course), when dmesg -w, which I was running to troubleshoot my network, suddenly looked pretty in the dark.

      Where did the crunchy peanuts came from? Isn’t it the same peanuts as the creamy ones, just less blended?

        Apparently, both ways of doing it exist:

        To make chunky peanut butter, peanut pieces approximately the size of one-eighth of a kernel are mixed with regular peanut butter, or incomplete grinding is used by removing a rib from the grinder.

        Personally, I figured, it could be bad when you don’t grind them fully, because you might end up with very large peanut chunks still left, but I guess, that’s kind of answered just before the previous quote:

        Peanut butter is usually made by two grinding operations. The first reduces the nuts to a medium grind and the second to a fine, smooth texture.

        So, I guess, you just do an incomplete grind for the second grind…
