A pound of peanut butter per week sounds insane but apparently it's only like 2 cups and I feel like that's an edible amount. It's a lot but if I really got a hankering for some PB I could do that. But then after a week I would be over it. I feel bad for this person though that apparently they think eating nothing but PB is healthy. A human body needs a variety of different foods and nutrients and evidently eating nothing but peanut butter isn't that.
Was putting less than that per week in my morning weight-gain breakfast shakes. Worked for a couple of months until the kidney stones put an end to that. Could never gain on carbs alone.
Same thing happens to me; I'll get a massive craving for peanut butter and easily consume an entire family-sized jar in a week. And just like you I'll get over it and go months without.
I wonder what causes this? Not enough protein in my diet?
You probably have plenty of protein in your diet. Requirements aren't that high for it. They're not a complete protein either but easily become one when paired with stuff most of us eat anyway.
They're pretty decent for b vitamins and things like copper (which is used for iron absorption).
Long story short you probably just like PB. I mean it's nice stuff but easy to get sick of.

It doesn't sound like they think it's healthy, given that they said they eat it in excess and it's a guilty pleasure.

A pound of peanut butter in a week is nothing; a pound of peanut butter a week, every week, on the other hand...
