National Peanut Butter Lovers Month celebrates the versatility of peanut butter throughout November. Enjoyed in sandwiches, desserts, and savory dishes, this rich spread can inspire a month of tasty experiments. One 12-ounce jar reportedly takes about 540 peanuts to produce, according to Bordas & Bordas.
The observance originated in 1995, although its creator has not been identified. Bordas & Bordas notes that there is no available information about the month’s origin or creator. Some people celebrate by preparing a peanut butter dish each week, while others make it a social occasion with a peanut butter dish cook-off.
How to Observe National Peanut Butter Lovers Month
Celebrate by cooking with peanut butter throughout November. Try it in a sandwich, dessert, or savory dish, then invite friends or family to share their favorite peanut butter creations in a casual cook-off. You could also organize a peanut butter drive for a local food pantry; Little Free Pantry notes that peanut butter is commonly needed by food banks. If you share food, check for peanut allergies first.
