Why does this exist? Who is the demographic that this item targets? The connoisseur who demands not just peanut spread, but fancy gourmet peanut spread, who also has a healthy caffeine addiction, but who is too lazy to acquire and separately enjoy a caffeinated beverage along with his (or her) (or xer) (or whatever) specifically selected specialty peanut spread?
@shahnm No idea, but as someone who loves peanut butter, and loves caffeine, this caught my attention fast. I’m in for a set of the 4 peanut-based spreads. (Yea I know it isn’t actually peanut butter, I hope it doesn’t suck)
@shahnm I think it is for the protein powder/fitness crowd. This stuff sells at GNC for $10 per jar. So I guess the target demographic is overly caffeinated gym rats who want a change from chugging protein powder while juicing.
@shampshire I would like nothing more at this time than a spirited discussion regarding the relative merits of whey vs. soy based protein supplement products. I wonder if any Mehtizens will enter into such discourse…?
@mike808@shahnm You do know that dairy cows live a relatively luxurious life, right? Most large dairies even have a machine that massages them. It’s a fact that happy cows make more milk. The cows themselves even get to choose when to get milked. Basically, household pets are the only animals that generally live better than most dairy cows.
/giphy happy cows
@shaconaqe You do know that cows only produce milk after birthing a calf, so dairy farms must necessarily keep their cows in a constant state of forced pregnancy. The milk we consume is merely a byproduct of that process. The “luxurious life” they lead is merely to assuage our societal guilt over forced pregnancy, similar to the “luxurious life” men provide for their wives in exchange for birthing only their husband’s children and genetic legacy.
@shahnm I bought one of these about a year ago because I, too, love both things. Unfortunately I found it to be grainy and not terribly tasty. It was definitely VERY caffeinated though.
@Thumperchick Dear Disney rabbit lady, I believe the paternity test came back this is the offspring of Mr. Penut and Juan Valdez, if palpitations are your only concern then go for it the proud parents would be happy to hear your heart is a flutter over their offspring!
Oddly, I think you might have solved part of my “I hate breakfast” problem. I really adore breakfast burritos, but they’re not healthy, because eggs/bacon/salsa/tortilla combos are delicious. Nut butter/crackers is better, but often I end up hungry an hour later, so at that point, what’s the difference between that and cereal except sugar? Maybe best of both worlds?
I found the perfect marriage for my new diet. Protein nut butter with caffeine I think I’d be Angry also if someone Mills my nuts into spreads! OUCH! But it might be taste…hmmmm
@yeppers or about half what they’re charging for it on Amazon.
/giphy productive-teachable-judge
…Oh, and I can never get too much caffeine, P-nut, or protein…
@PhysAssist Yeah, I caught that this is a significant savings over Amazon too - I’m trying to decide whether my love of caffeinated things and my fondness for peanut butter means I should buy this, even though I had no idea such a thing existed before tonight.
I’m pretty sure I’ve just lost the battle and will click buy shortly.
@PhysAssist Oh God, what did I just do?
/giphy scarlet-preeminent-gold
(editing because the first image was a broken link, and I couldn’t leave it that way)
So this stuff is so weird and has thrown me off so much I don’t have a clever way to really link this to Pop sockets today, maybe I’ll post something later when I’ve recovered from this.
@Zigzagoon I think that’s supposed to be confined to Reddit, Imgur, and Pornhub.
Besides, except for the Almond flavor, the rest aren’t actually nuts- they’re legumes.
I kinda really want this, but my supplement stash is big enough to stock a Fallout vault at this point, and if I get any more of this stuff, my mom is gonna kill me.
Tell you what, Meh: sneak me a single can of the white chocolate stuff, and I’ll post a funny review of how swole it got me.
You can buy 5 lbs of Jif and 2.25 lbs of chocolate flavor whey protein for less than twenty bucks at that Jeff Bozo place if you want to make your own. Add another six bucks to throw in some caffeine pills.
I was actually going to post about this being made of Hemp but it takes away from the cannabis deal props @givemehdeal
Yeah so there is this product out there and I know that now… if I want to get dead I could suicide myself by caffeine and nutzballs.
This one is a weird one meh, I am going to levitate over it which would be easier with a Dolby Atmos system and some Eurosocks to boot! So yeah get off my back a bit I have had the flu with pneumonia. Oddly enough I went jogging today in the single stupidest event in history… but I hate feeling like I am getting pudgy. Man was I fking wiped.
@sippinndippin Dude- with pneumonia you havta stick with active rest:
Listen to your body and sleep/rest whenever you feel like you need it.
But when you are awake, at least every 2 hours, you havta get up and walk round:
Go to BR, Get a drink, and/or snack, etc, whatevs, as long as you get up and move around for 10-15 minutes to stimulate blood flow, to encourage taking deeper breaths, and thus prevent worsening of infection by getting a collapsed lung, or clots in your veins, [AKA DVT]- which can lead to pulmonary embolism [PE]- AKA- a clot traveling into the blood vessels of your lungs.
Prognosis: Not good.
You can look on any medical web site [XC WebMD- there you already have cancer] just search “complications of being sedentary because of acute illness/injury”.
BTW, just having an acute infection can also increase your risk of clotting inappropriately.
@sippinndippin I didn’t mean to scare you, XC enuff to get you to 1) listen to your body…
and 2) move around enough, to avoid the complications.
How do I know these things? It’s not just my screen-name, it’s my job title too.
I really would like to try this but the macros don’t fit with my current situation. I hope you all report back with vivid reviews of how it was! Try some for me too!
But how do they taste? Intrigued by the flavors. Confused by the concept. I just want to know if it is going to taste like nutella without the guilt, or if it’s going to taste like chalky peanut butter with weirdness wrapped around it like a wet blanket.
What? Why? Perhaps they would have had me if they added in Alleve and Ben Gay for post-workout soreness, immodium for post “Not Nut Butter” diarrhea, maxilax for constipation, pepto for my obvious upset stomach and lithium to calm my 'roid rage.
@jhamowy You might want to see a medical professional if all of that is happening to you at once. Especially the ones that are considered to be mutually exclusive.
@rtjhnstn@tmilker Thanks an awesome idea!!!
Has anyone had the soda from Taco-Hell with the pop-rocks in it- it’s supposedly a Mtn Dew variant, and the one time I had it, it was pretty good.
So much meh. Why are they adding protein powders to a nut spread, which already is a good source of protein. And caffeinated?? “Protein infused” – oooohh, it’s “infused?” Then it’s gotta be good, right? More like infused with too much added oil. (All that being said, if this is your thing, or might be, it seems to be a decent price – well, if they were simple nut butters, that is, anyway.)
I am trying to order this but I only see a way to pick one flavor per order. Normally after selecting the first option I would see more but nothing today. Am I misreading this and it’s only a 4-pack of the same flavor?
Wait why are you psychos selling 4-packs of each flavor? Let us mix and match. Not a lot of people are going to take a risk on this being super disgusting if they don’t at least have a chance at one of the others being better.
Why does it have so much added sugar? A good chance to market the product to a keto / lowcarb crowd, but 4g of sugar in 2 tablespoons is basically a ticket to diabetes.
Did anyone else have a lot of separation in the caramel one? The others all seem fine, but the caramel has a creamy white liquid layer on top (haha. I know. But seriously)
So far I’ve only tried the Chocolate Craze flavor. I like it! Not too sweet, melts well when applied to a warm carb (toast, toasted pita, etc), and the caffeine effect is noticeable to even someone who routinely drinks energy drinks. Very slightly gritty, but so are most nut butters that aren’t jif, so eh. Put it on something warm, and it’s fine!

@shahnm I’ll take a shot. Which source is morally worse: raping cows to source milk or raping the land with crop monoculture and GMO soy?

So that’s a thing.
Deez nuts.
@Abyssrea thank you for your service
I’m super torn on this. I want it, but I’m almost certain I’d give myself palpitations.
@Thumperchick Settle down! Don’t worry so much about it!!
@Thumperchick I know. If it wasn’t caffeinated I’d have already bought. Still might, though.
@Thumperchick pair it with those gummies from the other day.
@shahnm You should’ve seen what happened when I used the cold brew coffee maker and forgot that it was concentrated…

My preferred peanut butter is the kind where they just grind up some peanuts and put it in a jar.

@deathbynoodlez If you let the peanut butter dry out forever it becomes like cement so you can shape a pop socket from this stuff. You are welcome.
@Kidsandliz and lick it for energy!
@deathbynoodlez Eat too much of this caffeine spread and it’ll make you pop your socket.
It’s late.
I generally like mills.
Seriously. Caffeinated? Are you kidding me? Why?
Caffeine pills can be rough on the stomach.
I would buy this but it no nut November
@Zigzagoon I think that’s supposed to be confined to Reddit, Imgur, and Pornhub.

@ShotgunX Funny- that’s the one flavor, I had no interest in trying.
You can buy 5 lbs of Jif and 2.25 lbs of chocolate flavor whey protein for less than twenty bucks at that Jeff Bozo place if you want to make your own. Add another six bucks to throw in some caffeine pills.
What’s the odds these things will sell out? You think it’ll beat the spread?
The HORROR! Peanut and milk allergy. Death in a jar!
@mehmef And with the added caffeine your heart rate will spike higher while you die!
@janelane1980 @mehmef Or, it might simulate epinephrine enough to counter the reaction ala epi-pen.
I was unable to say no to any part of the contents of this deal, from the company name and label tithe contents and additives.

Meh knows its customer base of caffeine junkies. They won’t sell out today, but please relist them for repeat buyers (and the awesome stories).
Forgot to add cannabis as well?
@givemehdeal or at least the CBD oil.

@enville I tried them all and they are all good. No funny after taste like the caffeine gum. Honey Grim was my personal favorite. I’m in for 4.
@moofi You are a saint! I always hesitate on caffeine-enhanced anything due to fear of aftertaste. That gum - blargh!

@k3p13r There is a minimum of 4 per order so you need to add 4 flavors. If you look at the bottom, each one you choose adds $5. $5 x 4 = $20
@k3p13r It’s a build-your-own 4-pack. You pick 4 flavors to create your 4 pack.
@moofi duh, thanks. I will return to my day job as cybersecurity minister of Japan now.

@Telanis Build you own 4 pack. You can choose any combination of flavors.
Why does it have so much added sugar? A good chance to market the product to a keto / lowcarb crowd, but 4g of sugar in 2 tablespoons is basically a ticket to diabetes.
