Carrots And Peanut Butter Is Apparently Florence Pugh's Go-To Snack, And After Trying It Myself, I'm Low-Key Obsessed
IDK about you, but I am positively delighted whenever I find a new snack to munch on.

And now, thanks to movie star and fellow food lover Florence Pugh, I have found a new one.
Recently, Florence talked to Harper's Bazaar about what she eats in a day, and it all sounded great.
Did she make an English breakfast sound delicious and make me want to try one? Not no.
Towards the end of the video, Florence mentioned that she frequently snacks on peanut butter and carrots, which piqued my interest as a peanut butter lover.
It's certainly not the most complicated culinary concoction, but you have to admit it's not the first combination you think of for either of those things.
In my head, the natural partner to peanut butter is celery, meanwhile, carrots belong with hummus.
But I trust Florence's food judgment so I had to try it.

Florence's recipe for butternut squash soup with chorizo and potatoes changed my life, so I would follow this woman to hell.
She doesn't specify anything beyond "carrots and peanut butter" in the video, so I procured some Skippy from the supermarket and baby carrots from my fridge.
After some expert assembly and preparation, it was time to snack. And...it was really good!
My findings are thus:
– The taste of peanut butter overpowers pretty much anything you eat with it, and this was no different. The carrots were basically just an edible vessel in which to move peanut butter from the plate to my mouth.
– Carrots themselves are pretty sweet, so this is very much not a savory snack.
– Carrots are easier to buy in snackable sizes than celery, so this might actually be a more practical way to get your veggie + peanut butter fix.
– This snack, while certainly not rocket science, decisively adds carrots to the list of things that can be improved by dipping them in peanut butter.
In conclusion, thanks for the tip, Florence. I will go out into the world and spread the word.
