  12. Nice, unusual, and clever. The last several times at the local store, have been finding the desi (sunfeast) peanut butter out of stock and the imported ones are kind of twice as costly, so after a couple of buys, decided to give up. Planning to make peanut butter at home soon, with peanut and honey, maybe you will have a recipe out for it by then!!
