Is it some other dried fruit?  (if it's not, I don't want to read pages and
pages of different kinds of dried fruit being guessed.)

(ok, yes, it's a dried fruit. no, it's not prunes. I *think* there's
only one more common dried fruit left to guess.) ;)

raisins?

Neither did I. :>  
A friend with a dehydrator has been experimenting - dried bananas, dried kiwi
fruits, tomatoes, avocadoes (don't work well, too greasy), apples, pears,
peaches (these are a sticky mess, we have tried them), peppers.  We buy dried
sweet potatoes from China, I think they are first boiled in sugar.  Dried
litchis, dried jujubes (some are smoked), dried persimmons (flattened), dried
lotus root, chestnuts (presoak, cook with rice gruel), haws (for tea).

butter?
Haws grow on hawthorn trees, which grow around the A2 public library next to
the parking lot.  They have smelly white little flowers, and then small red
fruits that hang on through the winter.  The Chinese ones have larger fruits
and are eaten by people, ours are eaten by birds ones they get hungry enough.
They are small trees with large thorns and a tendency for form a thicket.
Blackhaws are also edible, and unrelated.  Viburnum species.  Hawthorn is
Crataegus and there are wild species of it and cultivated ones.

Butter is not half fat, but ALL fat.  Also, I don't think it has any sugar
or protein, or other nutritional value (vitamins & minerals).

I'll guess peanut butter

Butter:  1 tbsp is 14.2 g, of which 16% is water, 100 kcal energy, 1 g
protein, 92 g fat, two thirds of that saturated.  It contains some calcium,
iron, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, lots of salt in the salted variety,
106 units of vitamin A (fat-soluble vitamin, none is found in olive oil), no
vitamin C, minute amounts of other vitamins.
In other words, not all the milk solids or even water are removed when making
cream into butter and buttermilk.  It is mostly, but not all, fat.
Lard has no water and almost no vitamins or minerals (a bit of zinc).
Margarine has vitamin A added, and sodium (salt).
Olive oil has a bit of iron.
You are right, butter is not half fat.

Not butter, nor peanut butter.  Nor haws neither, just for the record.

Peanuts have no cholesterol.  This is some animal product, cheese spread?

ear wax?

response 545 of 610: Mark Unseen   Dec 23 17:22 UTC 1999

It is an animal product, indirectly, but it isn't cheese spread or earwax.
