To ask why tf peanut butter jars are that shape?

[boxtysandwich]

I’ve wasted kilos f the stuff logded under the shoulders of the jar.

YANBU
Aldi's wholenut is straight sided, 100 percent peanuts, no xylitol, no palm oil, no sweeteners.

Indeed. Have you tried a teaspoon? Perhaps bend the handle of one to fit it in there.

You need something like this

Finger!

Just use your fingers

Or this

The supoon is the business. I have two and they are v useful.

I have a mini spatula which works.

Or use your finger?

You are meant to use a spoon to spread peanut butter, not a knife.

Yanbu. I worked out that about 10% can be wasted due to the shape of the jar. Should be illegal, when we're so concerned about waste, it's not just the product, but the plastic jar.

If you complained, I guarantee they would reply with bollocks about iconic shape and brand recognition.

I bought sundae spoons from the pound shop to scrape out the bit that gets stuck at the bottom and use a small teaspoon or my finger to get that at the top.

I’d like to moan about Salad Cream bottles too! It’s so thick it’s hard to get the last bits out. I always end up using a long handled tea spoon (Thank you Ikea) (which is still too short) for the far end, then stick my finger in and swirl round the neck to get that bit out. I use a lettuce leaf to clean it off my fingers 😂

Buy it in big tubs instead

Fingers?

Skippy (huge jars in Costco ) best peanut better ever in a no nonsense jar

I got a 1kg bucket of whole nut peanut butter in Aldi it's great

The egg was for context, I was quite excited about it and sent a photo to DH.....

@StrawberrySquash thanks for the Supoon tip - just ordered one!

@StrawberrySquash my supoon arrived yesterday and I used it all afternoon - what a find!

@KarlKennedysDurianFruit likewise with the Aldi peanut butter tub! It’s very good!

Anyone know how much the Aldi one is ?

Why would you design a container that needed a special tool to get something out of it? Imagine you had to dig out your 'hanger detatching hook' before you could get your clothes out of the wardrobe.

The most annoying one for me is the tiny clotted cream pots with deep ridges on the bottom. My tongue goes in there and I don't care who's watching.

It's cos it mimics the shape of a peanut, innit

Overnight oats!

@schoolcook £3.99 I think?
