    Pros: high protein food

    Cons: makes a spoon dirty

    Suggested improvements to recipe: note to thoroughly lick spoon clean, or use a finger to swipe up the peanut butter.

        Nah, let your dog lick it clean since they have cleaner mouths than us filthy humans. Whenever I’m done eating I just let my dog lick the plate/bowl/whatever clean and then it’s good to go back in the cupboard.

        If you lick it clean and wipe it with a cloth it’s probably fine, but that’d be crossing a line for me. I’d rather put a weeks worth of spooned peanut butter in a bag and skooge it out.

      For me, I’m more concerned about getting bacteria into the highly nutritious PB. If you’re only eating one spoonful then fine. I wouldn’t stick a spoon that’s been in my mouth back into the container though. I have done this “meal” though, but I scoop how much I want into a bowl first. Maybe drizzle some honey or something onto it.

        Butter knife it onto some crackers. (I prefer Ritz.) The knife never goes into the mouth so I can keep using it. Does make a mess on the counter or table if you don’t use a paper towel or plate(or bowl) to catch most of the crumbs. Guess you could eat over the sink…

      Use napkin for remaining peanut butter before you put it in the sink. Then it will make the spoon less intimidating to wash.
