Does that last bit of mayonnaise or peanut butter at the bottom of a jar really bother you? I usually hand the jar over to my dog and let her take care of it, but for some reason not everyone has a dog. That’s why some entrepreneurs have harnessed the technology behind deodorant sticks to eliminate this problem.

A new advancement .Pay more and get less.Notice how small these jars of peanut butter have gotten?
Mine are not artistic. They just taste good.
Great packaging evolution!
After viewing their promo video, I wish I was an investor for the product!
Thanks for the post.
I can see it now....a 3 y/o screws the dial on the jar too far....and wastes the whole contents. Mark my words.
Yes, I do wash everything out before I recycle. Not because I am a greenie but because I am afraid of the trash police in Fort Worth.
Now the saying “...the best thing since sliced bread” will be replaced by
“...the best thing since helical peanut butter jars.”
I’ve always thought the toothpaste type tube would be a viable alternative!
All that is needed is a jar wide enough to clear the knuckles of an average sized hand.
Seen it 100 times.
My problem is getting the jars open. I can usually open any jar, but the last two jars of Peter Pan lo fat PB required me to put the lid in my vise to open the dang things.
Then I’d be in big trouble and have to change my evil ways. ;)
In New Hampshire, they’d do spot checks of the trash and a sign threatened a fine. I never saw anyone get a fine though. There you would have to separate your glass by color.
I feel your pain.
Since a TBI, I lost a lot of the strength and small motor in my hands and those foil seals on the PB, under the lid are impossible for me to grasp. I have needle nose pliers in the junk drawer to help with that.
I didn't just say *gun*, did I?
Jokes on you. In those 8 hours, she chased the cat, chased her tail, tore up the furniture, barked at everyone who passed by and then slept for 7 1/2 hours.
When she heard you pull into the driveway she went back into the kitchen.
BUT you forgot a few things.....
Refreshing drinkie from the terlit....
Ate the cat poop, knocked over a few plants....
Yeah! Mom's home!
Quart jars of mayo have gone down the same road as 5 lb bags of sugar and gallon boxes of ice cream. Check the coffee shelves at the store to blow your mind on different sizes.
Be kind. That animation clobbered my browser and brought the whole machine to its knees!
