Sometimes I like to toast a bagel and spread peanut butter on it while it's still warm. I had this snack just a little while ago with a tall glass of orange juice - now I'm feeling energetic! Anyhow, the peanut butter is pretty much gone. I know a frugal method of using up the last scrapings is to use a small spatula to get every bit out, but I do something a little different.
I have a puppy named Honey. She is full of mischief, as all puppies are, and is always ready to play. I give her the mostly used up container of peanut butter & let her at it. She's going crazy trying to get every bit of the p.b. out of that darn jar. She bats it around with her paws, chases it, and so on. It's good for at least an hour of puppy entertainment. When she licks everything out that she can reach, I carefully cut the container in half so she can "clean out" the bottom easily. After a drink of water and a trip outside, she's ready for a well-earned nap.
Best dog toy in the world. I'm in the room with her so she can't peel the label off and eat it.
