What is National Peanut Butter Day?
On January 24th, we celebrate an American staple in our pantries, National Peanut Butter Day. Peanut butter is given the honor it so richly deserves each year on this day, whether it be creamy or chunky, with chocolate or with jelly.
Early peanut butter made by the Aztecs and Incas around 1000 BC was more of a paste and not nearly as creamy as the peanut butter we now know.
