The per 100g price makes it seem like the 1kg (bottom) item is cheaper than the 2kg one.
I wonder how many people are baited into getting the more expensive item (by weight).

I’d imagine not many. I don’t know anyone who says “I need (x of weight) worth of peanut butter!” And then uses the weight as the measurement.
Everyone I know says “I need peanut butter. Oh, $6.97 is less than $8.27” and never checks the weight.
If you’re shopping by weight, you’re probably not getting either of these. You’re getting those massive jars that are like 15lbs, and come in almost mini barrels.
Also, unrelated, but WHY are you getting creamy when EXTRA CRUNCHY exists?
This isnt what that price is for.
Say I’m buying ketchup. Bottle A is 725ml and costs $5. Bottle B is 967ml and costs $6. Giving you the cost / mL tells you which one is actually cheaper, not which one costs less.
If this truly is the case, be happy that nobody you know is struggling to pay for groceries 😉
When it come to peanut butter I only get the small jars. I have a rule that once the knife touches the bread it doesn’t go back into the jar, my wife doesn’t follow this rule so we would end up with a jar the size of my head just sitting there becaused it’s filled with old bread bits and no one would buy more because “we already have some”.
I tend to buy the max size that my family can reasonably eat before the item goes bad. 2kg is the largest size at this store, but I think anything larger would just be impractical, and I KNOW FOR 10000% FACT that my wife would just drop something heavier on the ground. LOL
I was looking for 100% peanuts in the crunchy variety!
Does peanut butter even go bad? I’ve never seen moldy peanut butter…
We usually get 100% peanuts, which can go… Dry.
I assume the taste will probably just become increasingly more rancid long before pure (and bacterially uncontaminated) 100% PB goes dangerously bad, if ever.
Crunchy is just creamy that failed. I’m not paying the same price if you can’t do it right. now maybe if it was cheaper …
