Classification Essay II

Behold, the humble peanut. A ground-hugging legume, thought to be farmed first by the ancient Incas. George Washington Carver, an American botanist, studied the peanut and came up with over 100 different uses, from cosmetics to plastics. What does that have to do with me? Well, I am a fan of the ubiquitous peanut, in the form of peanut butter, especially on my bagel each morning. But I am particular about my peanut butter. There are many different kinds; creamy, crunchy, extra crunchy, natural, salt free, etc., etc. I want to focus on three different types of peanut butter; creamy, crunchy and natural. Each has a place at the table, but some are more frequent guests than others.

  1. Sure, this can work as a topic, as long as you've got stuff to tell us about pb that is more than simply defining the types. I mean food is a subject that lends itself to stories, emotions, opinions, etc, and no reason those can't be in the support grafs.

    My son once managed to close both nostrils with peanut butter, creamy thank god....
