First World Problems...

The best and highest expression of the snacker's art includes no utensils or vessels. No knives or spoons or plates or bowls...just the food containers and an appetite.

But for some unfathomable reason, the makers of peanut butter (Big Peanut) chose not to package their product in vessels that do not require a utensil, once the magic first 50% has been consumed.

We all know that the first portion of peanut butter, lovingly scraped up from the pristine surface with a mini pretzel, is a prized and rare experience.

But so is the last bit of peanut butter embedded in the corner of the jar, and Big Peanut has conspired to steal that from us, and require a spoon or a knife or some other backward tool to get at the mother lode.

We are not chimpanzees trolling for termites with long sticks! We have evolved past that, and I demand that Big Peanut keep up!
