Q: How can I “fix” bad peanut butter? I recently bought some organic unsalted peanut butter from Trader Joe’s, but it’s really bland and doesn’t taste like the peanut butter I usually get (Skippy Natural Super Chunk). Does anybody have any ideas for what to add to it to make it taste better?

I understand that the consistency of organic peanut butter isn’t ever the same, I’m just concerned about the flavor and hate wasting food.
