PEANUT BUTTER CRISIS WREAKS HAVOCK ON TWIN CITIES YOUTH!!!
Tragedy has stricken my humble life. While grocery shopping at the Wedge Co-op this past Sunday I was horrified to discover that Wedge would no longer be stocking my favorite peanut butter, "Real Brand." In fact no grocery stores will be stocking this particular brand because its producer, ConAgra Foods, has ceased to produce it! This explains why the last time I went shopping all I could find was the crunchy variety (I prefer smooth but crunchy will do in a pinch). I will have to find some contact information for ConAgra and give them a piece of my mind as I feel that they are making a huge mistake discontinuing their delicious peanut butter. But there is probably nothing that I can do to get them to resume its production, its not like I could start one of those facebook groups akin to when some dumb ass bets their stupid bro roommate that they'll marry a goat if their group gets 1,000,000 members. I have in fact already begun my search for a new variety of peanut butter. I purchased Mara Natha peanut butter at the co-op (the brand that Tuesday gets) and my mother has purchase Parker peanut butter (produced right in Coon Rapids Minnesota). I prefer the latter of the two, it sticks to the roof of one's mouth better as well as tasting good. Its a really unfortunate turn of events because once most major peanut butter brands begun adding more sugar to their products I had to abandon the old peanut butters that I ate and when I found "Real" that my searching was over. Alas I must now wander the waste land of not having a peanut butter to call my own.
