Forget Pineapple on Pizza. Does Peanut Butter Belong on a Cheeseburger? We Did a Taste Test

let's put aside the great debate on whether pineapple goes on pizza (it does, but that's not important right now). Peanut butter... does it pair well with bacon? What about a cheeseburger? How about both?

Sonic apparently thought so. In January, the fast food franchise offered a peanut butter bacon cheeseburger for between $6-7 and, nutty enough, tossed in a peanut butter bacon shake as a drink option. Both were available for a limited time and are no longer available on the menu.

Maybe that's for the best. The calories alone are as high as our skepticism. Peanut butter already has a best friend — jelly (also chocolate, when jelly isn't watching). Why add bacon and cheese when "PB" and "J" have been BFF's forever?

from Dominos Japan.....
“As shown above, the Crispy Fish and Chips Pizza is topped by fried fish and potato slices, basil, tartar sauce, tomato sauce, and actual slices of lemon. For those not used to some of their more unusual toppings, it’s certainly a jarring dish to feast your eyes upon.

When Domino’s Pizza Japan noticed the surprise surrounding the situation, however, they offered up some quality customer service that included an apology for any offense as well as a free pizza.”

Peanut butter is delicious on hot dogs.

If you like peanut butter and bacon, you’ll love peanut butter on hot dogs.

One of my old haunts served a burger with peanut butter, honey and bacon. Not bad for a little change up on occasions.

I always thought that too. Until I tried a pineapple & ham pizza. It was soooo delicious!! That sweet/salty thing hit just right😋😋

My wife and I like pizza with ham and pineapple and sliced jalapenos once in a while.

I won’t try to convince anyone to eat what they don’t want to, whether they’ve ever tried it or not.

Talking about crazy places for peanut butter:

Madonna and Kennedy

I give it a solid "meh". They used peanut butter sauce, not actual peanut butter, and most of it ended up in the wrapper.

C minus. would not recommend.

Had one in Tucson back in the mid 90's on a dare. It was stellar!

Elvis Presley was a fan of peanut butter, bacon, & banana sandwiches.

[dragonblustar]

Sold. I’m trying it.

[Twotone]

My sweetie always put peanut butter (creamy) on his hamburger. I never tried it.

[sonova]

I’d try it. Minus the egg..

My dad liked Peanut Butter, bananas and mayo. He was from the deep east texas woods. Turns out that was a favorite of Elvis also. No thanks.

[Drew68]

It’s actually pretty good. I had one yesterday.

Peanut butter goes well with a surprising number of things, as does bacon.

One of my favorite things to eat is PB&J on white toast with bacon in the center.

[crosdaddy]

I had that as a kid, as Mike Tyson would say; its its malicious.

[cyclotic]

It’s an unusual taste but a very good unusual.

[HIDEK6]

I can accept peanut butter on a hamburger.

God bless George Washington Carver.

People often gag at the thought of my specialty. The peanut butter and tuna fish sandwich. Until they try it. Now they won’t eat tuna sandwiches any other way.

Mother in law ate hamburgers with peanut butter. Also in my opinion, better than it sounds. But, I’d skip the jelly.

I love Thai food and they use peanut butter in a sauce I just love.
