I've read all the malignment of peanut butter that I can endure. Peanut butter is great people food. Tastes good, full of protein, cheap compared to meat, etc., etc.
Peanut butter is great bird food. And guess what? I've seen the evidence with my own eyes. In the early sixties my father was working maintenence for the local school district (Wapato, if anyone cares) and at the end of the school year, for reasons unknown, someone cleaning up the school kitchen discarded about 10 cans of that government packed peanut butter (must have been 4 or 5 lbs. per can). Dad brought it home. We ate some of it, but that's a lot of peanut butter and eventually most of it was taken down to the barn and feed to the chickens. They loved it - heck, they preferred it. None of them died and they kept right on laying eggs. God bless George Washington Carver.
