Hey guys,

I'm here on vacation with my family and am use to grocery stores being short on things like toilet paper and paper towels but this has me scratching my head.

I've been able to find whole wheat bread and grape jelly - and just about everything else we need for the two weeks here - but there is no peanut butter anywhere near where we are staying in Dade County.

Anyone know why there is a peanut butter shortage in the area?  Where can I get some peanut butter for my kids?

Thanks!

That's a new one on me try Aldi or Publix or check Dollar General they have a small grocery section.

Publix is what you seek.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I'll check these out after the the kids get cleaned up - been a long day fishing, would have been nice to have a bag of PB&J's on the boat!

Wrong coast?  We are doing both open water fishing and going into the Everglades while here, think we found a good compromise, but if you have peanut butter on the gulf coast, maybe we made a mistake though.

Got a box of Uncrustables from Costco yesterday.

This is real strange. Checked another store and the gas station - neither had peanut butter.

What’s up with Floridaman hoarding peanut butter?!?!

Called the charter captain and he’s bringing a jar for tomorrow.

We’ve got an off day from fishing this weekend, was planning on a drive down the keys but may go to Naples for peanut butter if I can’t find any by then!

I know they are very different, but maybe you'd have better luck finding almond butter or cashew butter?

If the kids are young, you could turn it into a teaching moment - "see kids, I told you Florida was a little different".

Weird. I'm a regular consumer of peanut butter and I've had no problems finding stocked shelves of it.

How many jars of peanut butter could you possibly need?

Guess that you don’t have two teenaged boys...and are a hungry Dad.

Decided to make the drive down through the Keys and found some on the way.

Thanks for the suggestions guys!  

Still not sure why Dade County has the peanut butter shortage!
