We ❤️ peanut butter at the Food Bank because it is a tremendous shelf-stable item! Last year in 2023, we received 391,294 pounds of peanut butter to distribute to neighbors to help them thrive! We know peanut butter isn't for everyone, but what's your favorite way to eat it if you're a fan? Sound off 📣 in the comments and let us know!
