Hi. Got Skippy Natural Creamy peanut butter. It says "no need to stir." The first thing I needed to do was stir it. It should have said "no use to stir." It remained mushy and oily no matter how much I stirred.

@poemblaze I think "no need to stir" is marketese for "we made it gloopy by taking out the peanut oil and replacing it with crap and it won't get better if you stir it, so we will try to convince you it's supposed to look like that."

@AskTheDevil @poemblaze but if it's labeled "natural" it shouldn't have hydrogenated palm oil in it... i've never met a natural nut butter that doesn't need stirring because the oil separates in all of them (tahini too)

@redenigma @poemblaze Sometimes, when I was young and ambitious and crunchy, I just ground my own out of nuts. There was usually a _lot_ of extra oil left to use for other stuff, too.

@AskTheDevil @redenigma Ironically I mainly buy it to put in George's Kong toy.
