[QUOTE="SowiesoGroyp, post: 24985, member: 6"] this is pretty esoteric but sometimes japanese people call peanut butter "peanuts butter" because of the way they have to pronounce the ending -t (on the word "peanut") with a "-tsu," which is the same way they pronounce the plural (peanuts). and i find this kawaii. for the ignorant non-weaboos: there is no "tu" sound in japanese.
