i hate wasting PB. i usually use my almost empty jars to eat oatmeal out of (the glass ones) and yogurt (for the plastic)
I couldn’t waste PB if I tried… if I was ever worried about it going past its expiry, then I’d eat it with a teaspoon. Love it!
Lynn, that’s a great idea–I’ve just been letting my dog finish off the empty jars.
Megan–but do you dare eat a peanut butter creature?!?
