I hear its not a complete protein so to make it a complete protein and really get a lot of calories out of it can you just use crackers or does it have to be whole wheat crackers to make the peanut butter a complete protein?

i usually just dip a stick of butter in the pb jar and munch on it. i herd it wuz madd anaBoliC.!
Make the crackers out of chicken - whole wheat chicken of course.
?????????????????
no need to eat it along with anything else... complete proteins in meal combining has been debunked, this isn't 1985. are you in a 3rd world country and worried about your lysine intake?
Any kind of wheat will complete the protein.
So whole wheat products will complete it and a regular product won't? Is that what I am missing? Also is whole grain ok?
Finally, is one spoonful of peanut butter with one cracker enough of a balance to complete all the protein from the peanut butter?
Just spread ur PB on a slice of WW bread or an English muffin and u get a complete protein:

Spot on with the whole wheat (err umm, whole wheat chicken).
Generic rule of thumb whole grains and nuts or legumes generally complete a protein.
So if you have rice choose brown rice, bread - wheat bread and crackers - whole wheat chicken ;-)

Thats only in the mornin, you need to use STEEL cut oats for yerz pre bedtime meal.
If you are eating PB for protein, then you have a lot to learn...
I really don't want to use bread because I like peanut butter and crackers. So would I be safe having one spoonful of peanut butter with one whole wheat ritz cracker?

I don't believe you have to consume the complimenting amino acids right then and there. Maybe just keep concious of when you need to compliment a protein and add a grain in your next meal or vise versa.
That is good to know I will look that up later.
Swiss cheese, gouda, provolone.....all high in Lysine,Phenylalanine+Tyrosine

You don't need to be overly concerned about trying to make complete proteins out of everything if it's not a big part of your diet. Even though they may be incomplete proteins, you are likely covering the lacking aminos at least in part thus complementing it.

[quote][b]Myth: "Don't count incomplete protein sources toward your total protein intake."[/b]
The real deal: An incomplete protein source is defined as a food lacking in one or more amino acid. I believe this myth came about in response to research that concluded that when certain amino acids are deficient in the diet, skeletal muscle protein synthesis can be inhibited. This is very unlikely to be a problem for the typical bodybuilder as the condition would only manifest itself if he or she ate a diet that was predominately based on a certain food that was deficient in an amino acid over a few days, not meal to meal. Additionally, most bodybuilders consume a complete source of protein at almost every meal because any animal product will contain the complete spectrum of amino acids. Even if one consumed an incomplete protein source at a meal there's no way a decrease in protein synthesis would occur so long as a complete protein source was consumed with this meal. One should therefore absolutely count incomplete protein sources toward their total protein intake since they're consuming the full spectrum of amino acids over the range of their entire diet.[/quote]
