NFR Peanut Butter Recall - Damn I like PB

[iveofione]

First you didn't like my Jif. Then it was my apple pie. High maintenance!

My god-you are so sensitive! You have nothing to do with Jif being a low grade product. And it was me that picked out the apple pie.....

Your bloomers might be a little tight, loosen up.

Jm Smuckers owns Adams PB. So they have that going for them. I also think it is made in Tacoma.

Yep, made in Tacoma.
My brother worked there. He hates peanut butter now. He said smelling PB all day wasn’t bad in the beginning but not so great having to smell it constantly every work day as time went on.
This was long ago so maybe that has changed now, but I doubt it.

Just make your own damn peanut butter. It's really not that hard.

Throw some peanuts in a food processor/blender with some oil. Sweeten or salt to taste. Run that processor until it is all buttery. Done.

"some oil" - as in peanut oil or that Candian stuff they renamed Canola? Or?

@Mark Yoshida - thread drift, sorry. To those who buy (or make your own) PB like Adams or Kirkland organic - what's your trick for incorporating the oil on the surface into the mixture? We've been buying Kirkland organic (creamy - not sure if they offer crunchy) - the last jar I opened the peanut portion was very hard to stir and get the oil mixed back into.... I thought about a mini-mortar mixer, wouldn't that be messy.

We add honey and take this hiking...instant PB and honey. I'm always amazed at the amount of oil when it separates after storing in the fridge. I've wondered if PB makers sell the oil as a by-product (or vice versa) or mix it back in?

whatever oil you want. I use avocado oil typically.

I’ll have to ask all the field mice around my house is they have been dying of tummy aches or broken necks from the traps?

JIF is murderous stuff either way.

We actually used to do that! Also made almond butter. (We used to give little jars of it away as gifts.) It was so good! But it does take some time and it’s fairly expensive (especially if you break your Vitamix). After awhile our Vitamix started getting very wobbly so we quit making it.

We store ours upside down.

I didn't realize Jiff had such a following. I thought that's just what kids had on their PB&J sammiches.

Not fair, too easy!! ;-)

Hahaha… it works though!

I think that PB is mfg by Mother Smuckers.

Which now, I just noticed last week, is "manufacturing" the "superior flavor" brand with the "oil on top"........................ oops..............

I thought about a mini-mortar mixer,

I grew up thinking that's how everyone mixes their peanut butter. Do you mean they don't?

Nothing satisfies like a hardy bird shit sandwich for lunch.

I got a jar of Jif from Costco, about a year ago. It smelled and tasted weird, compared to the jar that I bought previously. I threw it out and never bought that brand again.

 

[RCF]

Check the latest recall list. Lots of sweets, candy and bakery goods, use Jiff PB.

Had two 4lb tubs on the recall list. Filled out the forms and have coupons for free replacements coming. Wife and kid eat a lot of this stuff, I figure they could be eating wayyy worse things.
