What the hell is it for, it would take a year of eating toast to use it all up

I think it's for weirdos who refuse to buy small containers. They think it's cheaper but they end up throwing most of it out.

No one should be eating 4 pounds of fucking peanut butter. PB is a good way to clog your asshole up. Peanuts cause constipation.

It'd last maybe a month at my place, much less if I'm dieting, which is why I no longer keep it around. A measly 2 tablespoons is 200 calories, and it's like cocaine if you're managing 1300 calories/day. Little taste and before you know it you're taking 600 calorie bites.
 
Not even crunchy. I am ashamed for us both, OP.
I must admit that I'm not a huge crunchy fan. The reason being is that as an autist I don't do well with food that is two different consistencies, it confuses my mouth.

It is some heavy duty stuff that is for sure, I have two slices of toast with peanut butter to fill me up before I go to work and even burning calories lifting shit at work I am often not hungry until dinner time.
 
If you've got a few kids, and do some regular baking of peanut butter cookies, peanut butter bars, baked oatmeal etc it won't take too long to go through it. I don't think the one we buy is quite that big but it's definitely a big jar.

Peanuts are a good cheap source of protein and you can use peanut butter in lots of cooking. If you have 4 kids, especially tweens/teens, and give them a PB&J for lunch just twice a week, on top of making some peanut butter cookies or pies, you'd go through it quick. Actual industrial places usually don't go to Walmart and buy Jif, it comes from a supplier, but imagine you're a daycare with 20 kids, yeah you might need to make 20 PB&Js and buying in bulk saves money and is worth it. Firefighters usually shop like that too, I've seen them sometimes at the store loading up on giant packages of meat and gallons of milk.

I make peanut butter mousse (hospital cooking) and it uses a quart/4 cups peanut butter (to make 50 servings).

It would make pretty good emergency food as suggested as well, although I'd still probably prefer a few smaller jars for that.
