How do you recycle peanut butter containers?
are you expected to completely clean them out?

IF not does this mean that there could be some peanut butter elements in recycled plastic materials? Should I be worried about this? Would a taser fix the problem?

4. I just fill them with cold water for a few hours...
And then rinse them out by hand a little...

And THEN, they go into the dishwasher!

It really works!

:hi:
