Today, my dad yelled at me for buying chunky peanut butter. He wanted smooth. Apparently he's "allergic to peanuts." I had to explain to him why his argument made no sense. FML

Buy him almond butter, he'll shut up after one taste.

How does his argument not make sense? Your dad is allergic to peanuts so he can't eat chunky peanut butter. Most people who are allergic to peanuts can eat smooth peanut butter with no problems.

Sometimes, people use the word "allergic" to mean they hate something (eg. I'm allergic to Rebecca Black). Perhaps the OPs father didn't literally mean that he was allergic to peanuts. I'm just playing devil's advocate here.

chuncky peanut butters the shit.

actually my friends is allergic to peanuts but can eat smooth peanut butter...its coz its so processed. chunky is less because there are actually chunks of nuts in it

Most people are allergic to the mold in unprocessed peanuts and not the actual peanut. Peanut butter is made from processed peanuts so the mold isn't in it. A lot of people can eat peanut butter even if they are "allergic to peanuts." FYI. So his argument is valid.

I hate it when people call bullshit outta asgfdytfnhjk nowhere. YOUR "INTUITION" IS INVALID!! Where is your argument?!

Is it too much to ask for smooth peanut butter nowadays?

Yes. Crunchy peanutbutter FTW!

his argument is quite reasonable actually, I think some peanut butters are not made from real peanuts, but instead peanut flavoring

Tell him you can't eat smooth because you're allergic to butter.
