1. Won't Work
Your plan won't work because the peanut butter on the store shelves and in your cabinet at home was not produced by the Peanut Corporation of America unless you live in an institution. Secondly Kool-Aid is safe to drink and has never been associated with mass sickness or death. What Jim Jones and the People's Temple used in Guyana was Flavor-Aid that THEY spiked with cyanide so it had nothing to do with the company that made the product. So you are out of luck on both fronts.

4. Well, you're right that Kool-Aid has always been safe, but
I'd quibble with "has never been associated with mass sickness or death." Kool-Aid pretty clearly is associated with mass death; nobody says "Don't drink the Flavor-Aid," what with people's tendencies to genericize the most common trademark of a product type.

7. Darn! I thought I was on my way to heaven. Now I'm just going to grocery store instead.
But the peanuts were in Trader Joes and Whole Foods peanut products.

3. Peanut butter you buy in the store is, as far as we know, quite safe.
Also, were you planning on spiking that kool-aid with cyanide yourself? Why not just take the cyanide straight-up? In fact, if you have cyanide and are planning on killing yourself, why bother with giving your corpse salmonella poisoning?
