Peanut Butter Sales Drop

Hysteria drives the masses far more than any semblance of intelligence. Since jams and jellies are complementary items to peanut butter, I wonder how adversely this was to their bottom line. It also brings into question if the various other nut and seed butters saw an uptick in their sales. Peanut butter is still big in my house. My first, second, and fourth daughters love creamy, but my third shares my love of crunchy.
