A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Both are pastes made of mashed beans (peanuts and chickpeas are beans.) They also have a similar nutrient profile and are both used for similar dishes.

There's way more garlic in my hummus

I say tahini and peanut butter are the same thing because a tahini and jelly sandwich is pretty good.

Yes, this is the answer. In theory, you could make peanut butter hummus, but you couldn't make hummus peanut butter.

You know the difference between chickpeas and garbanzo beans?

I've never paid to have a garbanzo bean on my face.

You know the difference between ketchup and peanut butter?
I don't have to go to the doctor when I catch up.

Basically tahini is hummus peanut butter, or as close as you can get.

The statement implies that there is at least some garlic in your peanut butter.

There's a lot of garlic in mine. You should try it, it's fucking delicious.
