Homemade peanut butter, hard to make?

If articles like this (Little Debbie Adds Snack Food to Salmonella Peanut Butter Recall) or this (http://www.fda.gov/oc/opacom/hottopics/salmonellatyph.html) worry you, it might be time to KNOW exactly what is in the food you eat. It may save you time, money, and health in the long run…
Here are a few links on how to make peanut butter yourself:

Amazing that oil, peanuts, salt and a bit of molasses is really all the ingredients that you need. Be sure to stash your homemade peanut butter in the refrigerator…it cuts down on the oils going racid. 🙂

Do you remember when Kroger used to have the peanut grinding machine in the natural foods section of the grocery store? That peanut butter was awesome! Shame they pulled those out…

Happy Washing
