Really enjoyed Larry Solway's column in the Orono Times extolling the virtues of peanut butter! Perhaps his - recipe suggestions are a bit way out, with use of onions, apples, mayonnaise, relish, etc., but let's face it, good old peanut butter is one of the really good nutritious foods the kids go for, and we all agree there are too many junk foods today! When you haven't time for bacon and eggs, give the kids toasted peanut butter sandwiches for breakfast, to start them off to school!
