Natural Peanut Butter Mixer
Natural Peanut Butter Hand Mixer
Amazon Price: $10.00 (as of 07/10/2009)
We love natural peanut butter! But not the way its oil separates to create a gooey unstirrable mess. This clever invention makes short work of that scenario. Just screw it onto any standard 16 oz. peanut butter jar and crank its chrome-plated mixing rod. Oil is smoothly and effortlessly stirred back into your peanut butter. Theres even a gasket that wipes the rod as you remove it and a removable lid liner that make clean-up a snap. No spills. No hassles.

All this about peanuts and peanut butter reminded me about one of my favorite childhood books.
The Peanut Man about George Washington Carver. He was amazing. He created so many products from peanuts. I'll have to look that up again. Thanks for the great lens!
