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. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  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.

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.
