Picture this: You’re looking forward to a delicious peanut butter sandwich after a long day and you come home to a jar that contains nothing more than a few impossible scrapings.
Looking forward to something all day, only to find none left is an absolute pain right? Well if you are a fellow peanut butter lover, then this hack is something you have to check out.
Chef Rachel Mansfield has shared her simple hack for getting the last bit of peanut butter out of the jar using one handy utensil.
Taking to TikTok, the mum revealed that she uses a spatula to reach every bit of peanut butter inside the jar.

The video starts with a close-up shot of a near-empty jar, showing the bits of peanut butter stuck to the edges of the jar.
Most people would deem this jar empty. But for Rachel, this is an opportunity to show off her zero-waste hack.
“This, my friends, is how you finish a jar of peanut butter," the chef says in the clip while sticking a spatula into the jar.
Rachel then scraped off the bits of peanut butter from the jar using the spatula.
She explains: “Take your spatula and brush all the outsides.”
"It's the easiest."
The shot then focuses on Mansfield teasing her husband, adding a bit of humour in the tutorial video.
“My husband’s favourite pastime is watching me do this for … the bottom of the jar,” the mum says as she removes the peanut butter from the jar.
“Jordan, wouldn’t you agree?”
Her husband, who is standing somewhere off the screen, answers: “Classic Rachel right there.”
“Literally, nothing brings me more happiness than doing this,” Rachel quips as she shows the peanut butter jar in front of the camera, revealing that it is now mostly clean and empty.
Rachel ends the video by taking one last bite of the peanut butter, exclaiming: "spatula trick works every time!"
