I could name all five, but seeing as caltechgirl already did that in the source post, I felt it would be a bit derivative.
I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, unless it's smooth with honey (no jelly or jam for me). Even then it's only an occasional meal now, as I had way too much in poorer and younger days.

That was kind of interesting. I still like peanut butter. In fact, most days I have a spoonful before heading off to the gym in the mornings.

You missed a Stooge: Joe Besser came between Curly and Curly Joe (hence the latter's name, not unlike Pope John Paul...) -- don't feel bad, I always forget him meself...

...and apologies to Colossus -- I knew that Pope reference sounded familiar...
