Yes, I know other smaller brands contract peanut butter for their products through the factory that produces the JIF peanut butter in Lexington Kentucky. However, Hershey is not one of the company's using peanut butter made by Smuckers. Hershey has their own facilities in Hershey, PA.

I don't know. My ex always did the food shopping so I only recently started having to go there myself. I have since been told that lunchtime "ish" is the worst because people go to eat all the free food, lol. Also after school because people bring all their kids.

Whose a monopoly? No company has a monopoly on peanut butter or candy. I can go to the store and choose from dozens of peanut butter brands. Same with candy. A monopoly would be if JIF was the only company allowed to make peanut butter or if Hershey was the only company making candy. Neither of those statements is true.

Smaller companies using a larger companies resources is also not a monopoly. They're free to contract with any company they want. No one forced them to get their peanut butter from JIF.

Hopefully their celebration is short-lived if that peanut butter had salmonella.
If you have traps with the fully metal triggering-mechanism, you can adjust it to make it
a hair-trigger by flattening-out the latch portion of the trigger.

The trap will be harder to set, and may go off if the the floor shakes, but the chances of a mouse setting it off are a lot higher.

Jif should be fine for mouse-traps, they are supposed to be neutralized anyway! ☺
