DEAR SMUCKER COMPANY:
Orrville, OH
Recently I have rediscovered the simple joy of a peanut butter and honey sandwich. The peanut butter I always choose is Jif. (The honey I use is not important). I find its ease in preparation to be a large factor in deciding to make one of these sandwiches. Materials in use are as simple as a paper towel and a knife. However, when making large quantities of these sandwiches between dish washing cycles, the sink becomes cluttered with knives slathered to the handle in your gooey peanut butter. I find this to be annoying, as there is no ideal way to remove peanut butter from a utensil, not even immediately after use, as is the case with cream based soups.
Last night I had the idea for a solution to this problem: Jif's (your) P.B. Spreader's single-use peanut butter packet and applicator.
This design would allow for both consistent apportioning of peanut butter and would save your consumers the cleaning of a knife, or in my case, nineteen knives. Simply tear across the top of the mylar pouch to reveal a rounded plastic edge that acts as a "spreader". Squeeze the peanut butter off the edge of the spreader, and work it across the bread. When you're done, you dispose of the packet, never to be reminded of the exact count of peanut butter and honey sandwiches you've eaten.
Please review my design draft:
