I still don't understand how some brands could put it on peanut butter. A few tablespoons can kill a small dog.
It's commonly known that chocolate and onions are bad for dogs but this stuff is on another league.

Honestly, I simply don't understand any reason to add any ingredients to peanut butter than peanuts and salt (and the 2nd is optional).

I buy the stuff that's just peanuts and salt because it's tastier, but mixing it really is a chore. It's not hard to understand why the type with other ingredients exists.

Storing jars sideways risks oil leakage, but makes their contents easier to mix. Also refrigeration seems to slow oil separation.

I stir it when I first open the jar, then store it upside down in the fridge, which works great, I often just scrape what I need off of the lid, but I may try storing it sideways next, thanks.

My daughter is allergic to peanuts. A few tablespoons could kill her. Would it be reasonable for us to expect that no peanut butter is made? No. We simply don't buy it.
All that is needed is the regulatory requirement to list it in the ingredients.
