Funny name, but a great recipe for spread you can use on tortillas, crackers, or just straight out of the jar. I got this from Joe’ Ultralight Backpacking site a few years ago and have made several batches. There are some more variants on his site as that you might want to check out. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT use regular corn meal for this. Don’t ask me how I know. 
Basic Recipe:
- 2 parts honey
- 2 parts corn flour (NOT corn meal! This is the same as Corn Masa, often found in the latino section of your grocery store. -JP)
- 1 part peanut butter (preservative-laden)
- Mix thoroughly, will take some time.
- Pack into Coghlan’s Squeeze Tube (REI, Campmor, etc), or in cold weather wrap in wax paper. (I just use a cheap tupperware container -JP)
Single Squeeze Tube Proportions (2-3 lunches w/ large tortillas):
- 8 tbsp honey
- 8 tbsp corn flour
- 4 tbsp peanut butter
