Stuff like that certainly exists here, but it's not super common.
Peanut butter is pretty much our standard of that type of thing. We use jellies/jams/marmalades/etc also, often paired with peanut butter.
Nutella is popular, but not nearly as much as peanut butter.
Marshmallow fluff (basically marshmallows melted into a spread) exists and used to be more popular, but is basically seen a a novelty item now.
We also have apple butters, pear butters, etc. They're basically a very thick apple sauce that can be spread on food. They're not super common, though. You'll mostly find them at specialty stores, farmer's markets, or farm stands.
Beyond that, the type of stuff you mentioned are fairly uncommon. If people get them, it's likely as a novelty for a special occasion. Maybe a kid's birthday party or something like that. They're not the type of thing people will keep in their house and have frequently.
