You're so funny! This post actually inspires me to make my own PB cups. Mmmmm...pb and chocolate.....
If they DID in fact get their peanut butter from the P B Corp. of America would it be wrong to still purchase it and just say a little prayer before each bite? Is that soooo wrong? I'm such a glutton...
Perfect. This definitely makes life more complete. I just love those delicious little morsels of happiness (though am refusing to eat them until I'm down to pre-Christmas weight! 3 pounds to go ....)
