Last night I went to my friend K.'s house to avail myself of her food processor. Put in salted roast peanuts purchased from the bulk section at Fairway, add a little oil (I used corn oil since I had it already), hit the button and hey presto! Peanut butter!
It is in the plastic jar from my last peanut butter purchase. As you can see, I can't keep my fingers out of it.
NOT ONLY did K. aid me in my peanut butter making, she also made me dinner, a delicious leek & asparagus risotto with local beer, and sent me home with some great items of clothing. She gets more space in her closet, and I get new clothes with no plastic price tags. Win!

May I ask how you buy bulk items without a plastic bag?
My glass containers would be too heavy. My reusable bags may not weigh too much.
Hmmm...
Hi Gruppie Girl,
I use produce bags from Eco-Bags for my bulk items. They work great! Well, sometimes the stickers fall off, but it hasn't been a problem yet.
Here are two sources for produce bags:

Juli~ Would those bags work for items like beans, popcorn and granola?
They work for me. Leave a little room at the top of the bag so you can wrap the drawstring around the outside. That way nothing spills.
Thanks a ton!!
