“Gross.”
Snackin’ Mom grew up in a peanut butter and jelly family, and she’s raised the Snackin’ Kids to be big peanut butter fans. But with peanut butter prohibited at schools and activities, the peanut butter stays at home.
Enter SunButter. SunButter is sunflower butter. It’s free of peanuts and allowed at schools.
When the Snackin’ Kids were in preschool, Snackin’ Mom sent SunButter and jelly sandwiches to school every now and then. They were not a favorite, but they were in the rotation. But, once the kids were old enough to refuse SunButter, the refusal was absolute.
Snackin’ Mom was hoping Chocolate SunButter would change the game. Both Snackin’ Sister and Snackin’ Brother love Nutella. Admittedly, they don’t appreciate the hazelnut chocolate spreads that prioritize hazelnuts over sugar, but they’ll put up with them to get chocolate into their sandwiches. For that reason, Snackin’ Mom thought Chocolate SunButter had a chance.
She was wrong. Completely wrong.
After a sample of Chocolate SunButter, both Snackin’ Kids said, “gross.” Snackin’ Mom sampled the Chocolate SunButter and could not imagine eating more than a spoonful. Snackin’ Dad gave it a try, too. He didn’t like it either.
Sadly, the Chocolate SunButter was a total (and expensive) waste for the Snackin’ Family.
