Weird ?: Where do you store peanut butter?

MrsEditorJax · October 2010

I keep mine in the fridge, which one of my friends commented is weird because it makes it hard (and therefore harder to spread), but I always figured it would be fresher that way.

I keep mine in the pantry

Pantry or cupboard.

I keep it in a pantry. I also think that it would be much harder to spread if it was cold.

Doesn't it depend on what kind you get? Like, the 100% peanut would go in the fridge and the normal skippy in the pantry.

Fridge.

In my bedroom!

Pantry. Cold peanut butter kinda weirds me out.

In the fridge, but only cause I buy the natural stuff (the salmonella thing scared me) and that's what it says I should do! Indeed, it's harder to spread....but that's nothing 20 seconds in the microwave can't cure!

Pantry for us, too!

Pantry, fo' sho. I also look funny at people who keep bread in the fridge. It makes the bread taste funny.

Fridge. We use a dirty hippie vegan PB, so no preservatives and I can't stand the taste of nut oils even slightly off. So I keep all of my bulk tree nuts in the fridge too.

if its regular skippy or whastever, pantry. all natural stuff imn the fridge.

Mrs.Kiltlifter · October 2010

Depends on the PB. I put Natural in the fridge and then the regular ole Skippy or Jiff in the pantry.

So, we have Jiffy "Natural." Should it be in the fridge?

newmommy74 · October 2010

Pantry - cold does seem a little hard to spread to me.

tfarabians · October 2010

I keep mine in the pantry and it's never gone bad! I get ready in a hurry in the morning and need to make my pb&j for my lunch fast. I hate it when I can't spread it!

Oh..and I keep my bread in the fridge. I only use two slices a day and usually only on workdays, so it often molds if I leave it out. Plus, the cats love bread. Darn things won't touch any people food but if we leave a bread product out it is destroyed.

I agree with most others, I usually buy the all-natural kind and keep it in the fridge so: 1) It doesn't go rancid, though I think we use it quickly enough that that wouldn't be an issue and 2) it doesn't separate. The almond butter is still pretty easy to spread from the fridge, but peanut butter is more of a pain. I usually leave it out for a bit first or zap it in the microwave if I'm in a hurry.

And before Max was eating bread, we used to have problems with it getting moldy. I've found that in the fridge it dries out, but in the freezer it doesn't, and I just take out as much as we need at a time.

We grind our own, so it goes in the fridge. When we used to get JIF, it just went in the pantry.

Ditto!

Skippy/Jif/preservative-filled PB: in the cupboard.

The good natural stuff that I sometimes splurge on: in the fridge.

PB goes in the pantry. But I keep my bread in the fridge. Peanut Butter and MOLD don't go well together! Give me the side eye, CG! I double dog dare you! Stick out tongue

StellaZ · October 2010

Ditto. All breads in the frig and PB in the pantry. But I don't eat cold bread - always toasted or nuked. I don't eat much of anything at room temp. I keep chips in the frig too if there's room!
