I buy it all the time. I don't want anything in my peanut butter except peanuts and a little salt, but NO SUGAR or emulsifiers or other crap!!!

And I stir it with a butter knife. It takes a little time and effort to get the peanut oil back in the peanut butter mix. Just keep carefully mixing and pulling the peanut solids up from the bottom of the jar and mixing them with the oil and lighter components which rise to the top!
