This isn’t hyped by normal people I guess but when I was looking for a better pillow, these custom-sized memory foam pillows seemed like a crazy overhype and a grab for money by physiotherapists. $200 and a year later, still the best purchase I have made for my bed.
Also, peanut butter. I hated peanut butter growing up and never understood how people are so obsessed with it. Man did I miss out for years, that shit is so good and so versatile.
Pro tip: crush roasted unsalted peanuts and have real peanut butter. You have no idea what you’re missing. The peanut butter sold in most places is hydraulically fractured, then the peanut oil is reserved and replaced with inferior soybean. Crushed (not fractured) peanut butter does not separate, and it is breathtakingly versatile in cooking!
(I should clarify, not only does fracturing the peanut meal force the oil out, it kind of “cooks” the proteins and transforms them, which is why it continues to separate no matter how much you stir. And then it just doesn’t taste as good. I know I sound like a peanut evangelist, but it’s a different experience when you try fresh crushed)
Sounds like a lot of effort for something that might not make any difference? Only way to find out is to try I guess, but I’m too lazy :) enjoy your superior peanut butter, I think I’m good with the industrial stuff from the supermarket 👍🏻

This is commonly available most places afaik, just 100% peanut.
Yeah but it’s fractured

And if you want a sweetener, use honey.
