i just bought a jar of all natural peanut butter, but there is oil on top, is that actual peanut butter oil or just another "corn syrup" type thing, it says no additives and said to stir the oil in, but im skeptical as to the nature of it.

I'm actually dumbfounded by this

After a bit of investigation and anonymous interviewing

I've come to a conclusion.

A good portion of people see peanut butter as sweet, and a good portion see it as more of a savory, nutty taste

But surprisingly enough, an even greater margin of people have trouble accurately pinpointing the taste

Not sweet, not savory or salty so to speak, more a sort of indescribable, unique taste.

Although, above all else, most if not all people agree that peanut butter is, in fact, excellent-tasting, which leads people to favor it without actualy discussing it.

One person may say, "i sure love peanut butter", enjoying it because of it's sweet flavor, and another person says "i agree with you, i love peanut butter too" because he enjoys the savory taste

The actual flavor of peanut butter is an anomaly, an uncomprehendable sensation

The agreement that it is, without a doubt, good-tasting, but if one were to discuss the flavor, the discussion would be fruitless, because nobody can truly agree on it.
