I think I'm overpaying for peanut butter

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 66 points 2 months ago (2 children)

So you're going to die this year? Because peanut butter has a way shorter expiration date than he seems you think. Though if you eat that much peanut butter in a year, so do y'all.

That hing on their hands... It doesn't look like a spoon.

[–] M137@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

that word in your comment, doesn't look like a thing.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 8 points 2 months ago

"Thank you, Hing!"

[–] smee@poeng.link 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Would old peanut butter kill ya? Perhaps that's what they mean by "a lifetime supply"?

[–] Dragonstaff@leminal.space 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If your taste buds are working, it'd be pretty difficult to eat enough rancid oil to kill yourself.

I have to imagine this peanut butter was intended to feed animals, probably for hunting.

So it isn't even particularly sweet and processed at a lower standard than the stuff the husband was used to. But what do I know, maybe he always intended to bait hogs with it.

[–] MimicJar@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

probably for hunting.

Who needs a machine gun? For hunting.

Who needs $600 worth of peanut butter? For hunting.

Take my peanut butter away?

From my warm sticky hands!

[–] smee@poeng.link 4 points 2 months ago

Am I weird for wanting a machinegun that shoots hogs at peanut butter?

[–] Liz@midwest.social 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Added sugar to peanut butter is an affront to the mighty peanut. Just grind that shit pure and smack it in your mouth like nature intended.

[–] ObtuseDoorFrame@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

Damn straight. Peanut butter is the best tasting food in existence and adding sugar to it is wildly insulting.

[–] chocosoldier@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 months ago

it's on /r/AmIOverreacting, i think it's safe to assume the story is false

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 30 points 2 months ago (1 children)

My answer depends heavily on whether it’s chunky or creamy

[–] sbv@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 months ago

finally, someone asking the right questions

It's only a 2 month supply

Probably 2/3 of the way to racid already, smh

[–] dependencyinjection@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Racid? Do you mean rancid?

[–] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

He meant racist.

[–] Eyedust@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 2 months ago

This is probably like... number one on the "my partner might be a doomsday prepper" checklist.

[–] ChanchoManco@lemm.ee 18 points 2 months ago (2 children)

That's not nearly enough for a lifetime

[–] smee@poeng.link 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

A single jar is more than enough for a lifetime.

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 months ago

Especially, if you're allergic.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 5 points 2 months ago

If you ate all of it at once it would definitely last a lifetime. Especially if you have a peanut allergy!

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

Then you find out rancid PBJs are 50% off this week.

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Like that guy who bought 40 pounds of parmesan for 10 bucks.

[–] bizarroland@fedia.io 5 points 2 months ago

Can you imagine how buff the Olive Garden server's arms would get?

[–] spooky2092@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 months ago

That gonna go rancid before the first barrel is emptied.

[–] Rodneyck@lemm.ee 11 points 2 months ago

Is this some 'The Price Is Right' reveal? As a prepper, I bid $10,001!

[–] zarathustra0@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

What a deal

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 6 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Can those containers hold hundreds of pounds of... anything?

[–] HertzDentalBar@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 months ago

Yes, that's why they use them.

"What's for dinner?"

"Peanut Butter."

"Of course."

[–] MTK@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

So potentially I can have a PB bath for around 100$? Neat

Hi Bixby, can you bathe in peanut butter?

[–] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Now do it with other food like milk.

[–] smee@poeng.link 4 points 2 months ago

"Honey, I bought a cow!"

Yeah, perfect.

[–] AnimalsDream@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 months ago

Going to be honest. I was looking into sources of bulk organic goods and saw that Eden Foods sells 55 gallon barrels of soy sauce for roughly $3,000. Far beyond justifying for any pay I've ever had, but for how much soy sauce I go through it is tempting that it's there.

But then again I opted not to buy anything from that company because the founder is very openly Catholic, and I don't know what their political leanings are. I'd rather not accidentally support another Hobby Lobby if I can avoid it.
