I grew up in a household where Apple Butter was a breakfast staple. My Hungarian grandpa loves the stuff, so we'd eat it on toast, or mixed into oatmeal and cream of wheat. It reminds me of my childhood. (Plus, it's yummy.) It wasn't until I was an adult, with my own money and ability to grocery shop, that I found out there there were different fruit-based butters. Up until my late teens, I really thought apple was the only kind out there, but after I discovered the joys of pumpkin butter...there was no going back. I've tried a few different brands over the years, but I haven't found one that I am entirely loyal to. Maybe the cult of Trader Joe's will finally draw me in with this one.
