Today I celebrate a world renown innovation .....Peanut Butter. That's right I said Peanut Butter. WHAT,.....You don't like Peanut Butter????
The discovery of peanuts themselves came from South America, thought to be around what is now known as Brazil as early as 950BC. It wasn't until 1895 that Dr John H Kellogg and his brother W.K Kellogg discovered a process to mash the peanuts into a cream which today, became known as Peanut Butter.
Now, in the event you say HMMMMMMMM that name sort of sounds familiar, it should, these are the same two brothers that went on to become the cereal moguls of today.
"How do you know all this funnyman", you ask......WELL, for one, I MAY be older than you think, OK YOU GOT ME..... I RESEARCHED IT...... Clearly, I wasn't born until at LEAST 50 BC, Hahaha.
I am writing this today because I have a huge love for this tasty product. I love it on toast, on Pb and J sandwiches and of course my favorite, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. YUMMMMMM.
Wanna hear some fun trivia about the peanuts and peanut butter??????? "SURE", YOU SAID......OK then here it is:
