This is an e-mail I received today:

so Jason received skippy peanut butter for christmas along with a special spreader for pb&j and so as usual when i want a snack i nice teaspoon of pb and eat it.  skippy - not so good.  So I decided not to finish the spoon and dropped the remainder in the trash and put the spoon filled with pb in the dishwasher.  It came out clean as a whistle. 

now my question is, can i put the whole jar in the dishwasher so i can get back to my jif? 

Happy Tuesday!

This is my Response:

Have you ever thought about the phrase "clean as a whistle?" How can something you blow on be clean? If I were walking around and saw a whistle on the ground the last thing I would want to do it put it in my mouth on it and blow. I might consider it after thoroughly cleaning it with bleach at least twice. I think I would be more inclined to put my own fingernail clippings in my mouth rather than blow on a strange whistle.

As for the peanut butter jar thing, I think you would be much more amused if you scooped it out and left it in the toilet. Then if you had the burning desire to clean the jar the rest of the way, you could put it in your awesome peanut butter eating dishwasher. Simply putting the peanut butter filled jar in the dishwasher would lose far to much comedic value.

Happy Wednesday!
