This is a true story.

Last Saturday evening, a friend and I were walking through Old Town, when a gentleman passed us by. He was carrying a jar of peanut butter and merrily eating the contents with his fingers.

Then, he grew visibly distressed. “A spoon!” he shouted as he hurried into the night. “I need a spoon!”

You see, the poor fellow had extracted as much as he could with just his bare hands, but had reached the point where he couldn’t access any of the remaining peanut butter. I instantly thought of him as I discovered this:

This is the “Easy PB&J Jar,” which allows you to easily scrape out every last lick of peanut butter without leaving any behind in the nooks and crannies. Both ends unscrew, and the walls are straight, so nary a nugget of peanuty delight will be uneaten. It can also be used for almond butter, cashew butter… any kind of butter you can think of! No longer will you need to smash open your butter jar just to get at that last bit of hard-earned sticky goodness.

(The only thing, though, is… okay, so you transfer your peanut butter into this Easy PB&J Jar for easy access. But in doing so, how do you avoid leaving behind lots of precious PB in your original jar? Or am I overthinking this?)
