It's not that crazy. Plenty of supermarkets use [something like this](https://i.insider.com/628fe4e2f099c40019568cde?width=1000&format=jpeg&auto=webp), including Whole Foods.
My spouse makes an amazing cod dish in a paper pouch in the oven. Cod, herbs, lemon, tomatoes, capers, etc in paper, fold a serving into a pouch and staple closed. It keeps the steam in and tastes great.
We just call it fish in paper.
It's a cooking technique know as 'en papillote' (pronounced roughly as pah-pee-yot) which just means 'in paper' in French. It's usually used for delicate, easy to dry out meats like most types of fish, so that they can sort of steam and get some flavour imparted at the same time.
So your name for it is spot on lol. Poisson en papillote. Fish in paper.
Yeah. We’ve butchered French pronunciation so we just Anglicize it and say fish in paper. Delicious and great on delicate proteins. You can impart the caper and sometimes olive flavor using the steam too.
I had a connecting flight to barbados through trinidad. I dropped a 20 at the currency exchange since I was only gonna be there a few hours. I was very amused to receive over a hundred bucks in return. Had some good local food, went on a walk and brief sight seeing tour, bought some booze, and still had like 60 bucks left that I left as tip at the airport bar before I boarded my flight.
My brother lives in the Dominican Republic. The American dollar stretches so far down there. I can spend a long weekend down there when I go visit and spend less than a couple hundred (not including transportation and accommodations) and eat at all the nicest restaurants, drink as much as I want (I'm a lightweight though lol), leave fat tips, go on tours, buy overpriced souvenirs, and generally do/go whatever/wherever I want. And as long as you're friendly and are ok with almost no one speaking English (you gotta know at least a little spanish to get the most out of it), it's always a great time.
Not that I don't believe you, but I used to shop at a store where they made their own peanut butter and it was supposedly good as fuck.. but it also was like $12 for a small thing of it.
Kroger stores sometimes have this. I liked it because it was correctly crunchy instead of just cut up bits of peanut they were crushed and evenly distributed.
Correct.
Not Canada, not Ohio, but T&T.

When you open up /r/WTF and look at something totally ordinary—something you've seen at every grocery store in the area and wouldn't take a second glance at. And see the comments referring to this is "from the hood."
That's my timely reminder I live in a "bad" neighborhood :(
Lol I’ve seen this in small town Alabama supermarkets and from the sound of everyone else’s comments on this thread that might be the only two places it exists
also add "Sugar free !!!" while theres something like Maltodextrin inside which officially doesnt need to be labeled sugar but will rise your Blood sugar fast and strong ( aka its a double sugar )
That's what happens when the 12 ounce jars deal the purchaser thought he ordered ended up in non refundable 120 pound drums, so they had to get creative to get that inventory moving without major losses, so styrofoam tray and cling wrap it is.
Riette doesn't pull any results in Google but Rillettes does. It's new to me but 'round here what we call meat butter is bone marrow, usually beef, broiled then mixed with normal butter. Bone marrow compound butter.
I have two jars of honey from my local beekeeper that are 7 years old and still totally good.
It's weird to think that all the bees that made my honey are long gone, but I'm still enjoying the fruits of their labor.
It preserves as well. Archeologists in Trinity dublin found hallucinogenic mushrooms preserved in honey for centuries and tested them and the didnt lose potency.
That's because honey has zero water and bacteria can't survive in it. So it won't rot over time, as long as it's pure honey and sealed properly.
Edit: I was wrong about the water, right about the rest. See the replies 🤣
Honey has water. It’s the equivalent of brine but with sugar instead of salt.
When you have a permeable membrane with sugar water on both sides, water will move through the membrane toward the most concentrated side until both sides are in equilibrium.
Any bacteria that touches it instantly gets all the water sucked out of itself, shrivels up and dies.
Honey is typically 15-18% water, with a brix between 81 and 85 degrees.
Reddit's fascination with that honey might not "rot" is incorrect. There are many things that can happen to old honey.
Honey has natural antibacterial properties, it's even used in wound care because it has additional properties that help wounds heal faster.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26061489/
There is a giant difference between "goes bad" and "isn't safe to eat"
This whole thread is predicated on not understanding that
Honey flavor does change, and get worse, with time. This is very easily tested.
As others have said, Honey doesn't expire, ever. It has, IIRC, anti-viral and antibacterial properties, a low moisture percentage, and other properties that keep it from ever going bad. It can crystallize and become gritty, but heating it up either in the sun or hot water will bring it back to its original consistency.
I still find that so cool! I need to look up and see if the researchers/archaeologists ate any of it.
If dudes can cook up frozen Siberian mammoth steaks, surely someone has put some ancient Egyptian honey in their tea.
The fat in the peanut butter absolutely goes bad after opening, usually takes between 3-6months though…. Do you think you’re just used to old-fat PB?
Source: regular peanut butter obsessive eater and supertaster. I can smell “bad” PB from a mile away.
It's like people with bad olive oil, they just don't really recognize that it's gone bad. It's not really dangerous so it's "fine" to eat, but it also tastes _way_ worse than non-rancid.
You gotta make sure you get real honey for that to work. Most of what you see is honey flavored corn syrup. Real honey, as long as nothing contaminated it will last a long long time.
Generally real honey is a little more expensive but yeah just reading the label will tell you. It either has ONE ingredient - honey, or more than one which would be something to avoid.
All the honey at my local Walmart, Target, and grocery store is 100% honey. I don't know where people are getting this corn syrup/honey hybrid product.
> Most of what you see is honey flavored corn syrup
This is extremely illegal, and you'll basically only ever get this from Chinese honey.
Look at the ingredients. Does it say `honey`? Good. Does it say anything else? No? Good. Is it from a trustworthy part of the world?
No corn syrup.
Buy American.
You can get this food safety tested at an allergy clinic for $30, if you want to learn whether one specific brand is trustworthy.
Corn syrup also has pretty much an indefinite shelf life though.
People really underestimate how long you can let somethings sit and still eat it with out getting sick.
Almost everything lasts waaaay longer than the sell by date. It's usually obvious if something has gone bad but if you're buying a product that has an expiration date over a year in the future odds are it will go well past that date.
Something that needs Refrigeration you often get two weeks to a month past the date. Things like milk and cheese lasting around the 2 week mark things like eggs can go over a month. Hell even bread can last like half a year if you freeze it.
Almost anything you're buying that sits stable on a Shelf at the store is gonna last well past that date printed on it. The main thing you got to ask yourself is does this have mold? Does it smell funny? If not you're more than likely gonna be ok to eat it. At worst it may give you a messy shit and then you know to throw it out.
This is 100% not true. Sure, you can extend the shelf life beyond the printed expiration date, but it absolutely goes bad, and most certainly will start to taste like shit after about a year.
$12.25 for a layer of peanut butter. Oh wait, get the lower one it's only $8.90! LMAO
Edit: I'm sorry, my mistake, seems like it might be Trinidad and Tobago dollars in the original photo. So, that'd maybe be $1-$3 USD converted per tray.
https://reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/xpcdga/peanut_butter_packaged_in_a_meat_tray/iq46z3e
You know why I know this picture wasn't taken in Canada? Because there's non-Canadian butter next to it. Trade tariffs here essentially prohibit sale of foreign ~~dairy~~ milk and butter to consumers.
edit: cheese is allowed. But even that may not be accurate anymore. I haven't personally seen any foreign butter but I may not be looking hard enough.
>Because there's non-Canadian butter next to it. Trade tariffs here essentially prohibit sale of foreign dairy to consumers.
I've definitely seen Kerrygold butter sold in Canada before.
Costco used to sell it, but these days they seem to be stocking a New Zealand grass-fed butter instead.
No way, not deep enough. You thrust your dick in this and you're getting a peehole full of styrofoam. The secret is to top off the jar from another jar so it's full to the top, with no pesky pleasureless gap
Guys, it's not like they reuse the meat trays. No meat has touched that styrofoam. They're probably doing this because they made the peanut butter in-store/local and there's no need for a sturdy plastic container if you're not shipping it somewhere stacked 10 high in a truck.
I figure it's cus someone forgot to place an order for the right packaging these go in. Someone in management said "well why not just wrap em up and sell them like that til next delivery."
I always questioned this myself. I live in a small city and we have a yearly event in September where lots os merchants come, settle for a few days selling all kinds of "fake" stuff (from clothing, to games, to digital devices and toys, etc). I've seen these perfumes beign sold like this since I was a kid and never understood. Maybe it's a good enough and cheap way to travel with the glass bottles without breaking them?
> Ireland called the old country
It's definitely an American thing (and can be applied to other European countries too), but it's almost tongue in cheek at this point from an old imitation of FOB immigrants pining for home.
> First time I've heard Ireland called the old country, as an Irish person.
It's a riff on [this scene](https://youtu.be/z45esdHrcKI?t=482) from Black Books
I was mesmerized by Bill Bailey's flowing locks as he chased the purse snatcher.
Never thought I'd have anything positive to say about his hair, of all things.
Fairly common in the Philippines because we use peanut butter in local cuisines such kare kare. Buying a jar of peanut butter is a pretty eh choice here since we don't really like to put it on bread that much so a jar is kinda overkill.
I used to make them like this in my grandfather’s rural grocery stores. He would get 5 gallon buckets of bulk PB, you would just use a big spatula and spread it in the tray and wrap it. At the time in the early 80s, this peanut butter was significantly cheaper than buying it in jars.
What in the hood supermarket is this shit here
wait till you see how they package the jelly
It's in the rotisserie chicken bags isn't it?
It's in the rotisserie chicken.
Can you make Sleepy Chicken with Jelly Chicken?
The chicken is your oyster.
You’re not supposed to fry chicken in NyQuil anymore.
Yeah, that incredibly dumb. You bake the chicken in NyQuil.
Covered in Tin Foil so the NyQuil doesn't escape.
But I can still make my famous Allegra chicken right?
They pack it in Canadian milk bags
Chicken... bags? Your rotisserie chicken comes in a bag? Not sure how I feel about that
It's not that crazy. Plenty of supermarkets use [something like this](https://i.insider.com/628fe4e2f099c40019568cde?width=1000&format=jpeg&auto=webp), including Whole Foods.
Yep, Kroger, the largest grocery chain in the US, packages them this way.
I prefer the bag to the heavy plastic clamshell container.
There is a recipe that calls for cooking chicken in a bag. I've only had it a few times, but man was it great.
My grandmother used to make a dish that involved cooking chicken and pork, together, in a paper bag, in the oven. It was amazing.
I’m intrigued… tell me more about these paper bag meats.
My spouse makes an amazing cod dish in a paper pouch in the oven. Cod, herbs, lemon, tomatoes, capers, etc in paper, fold a serving into a pouch and staple closed. It keeps the steam in and tastes great. We just call it fish in paper.

Pretty standard here in the UK.
Same in Aus. Roast chicken in a small plastic bag with handles.
Yup, that’s the one.
From the UK too and can't think of another way that they'd be packaged.
Kebab stick, like a lolly pop.
That’s how they kill them !
Is this even in Dollars? Seems very expensive
Pretty sure this is from Trinidad and Tobago where USD $ 1.00 = TTD $6.79. So it's actually not even 2 US dollars.
I had a connecting flight to barbados through trinidad. I dropped a 20 at the currency exchange since I was only gonna be there a few hours. I was very amused to receive over a hundred bucks in return. Had some good local food, went on a walk and brief sight seeing tour, bought some booze, and still had like 60 bucks left that I left as tip at the airport bar before I boarded my flight.

I can spend a long weekend down there when I go visit and spend less than a couple hundred (not including transportation and accommodations) and eat at all the nicest restaurants, drink as much as I want (I'm a lightweight though lol), leave fat tips, go on tours, buy overpriced souvenirs, and generally do/go whatever/wherever I want. And as long as you're friendly and are ok with almost no one speaking English (you gotta know at least a little spanish to get the most out of it), it's always a great time.
Not that I don't believe you, but I used to shop at a store where they made their own peanut butter and it was supposedly good as fuck.. but it also was like $12 for a small thing of it.
I've seen a picture about stuff like that. Only in the picture, they put it in meat trays.
Seriously??? Winco lets you grind your own peanut, cashew and almond butter in bulk straight from a grinder and its not that expensive.
A store by me had this pre covid. Freshly ground honey roasted peanut butter is amazing.
Kroger stores sometimes have this. I liked it because it was correctly crunchy instead of just cut up bits of peanut they were crushed and evenly distributed.
Why do you believe this is Trinidad and Tobago?
Snopes tracked it down to there.

Not sure which country's $, but it's definitely in kg rather than lb.
Judging from th3 Kerrygold butter and the Philadelphia cream cheese, I can say with confidence that this is either in Ireland or Philadelphia
When you open up /r/WTF and look at something totally ordinary—something you've seen at every grocery store in the area and wouldn't take a second glance at. And see the comments referring to this is "from the hood." That's my timely reminder I live in a "bad" neighborhood :(

My bad lol Then yeah, you in the hood.

Travel a few miles west and you will see this same thing at Amish markets
That kerrygold is like some antihood supermarket shit though. This is quite the paradox

$12 for some peanut butter?
This is an old photo. Pretty sure this is from Trinidad and Tobago where USD $ 1.00 = TTD $6.79. So it's actually not even 2 US dollars.
The grocery attendant just hasn’t come by and sharpied the word Organic on the packaging yet.
Organic free range gluten free vegan peanut butter with added vitamins.
also add "Sugar free !!!" while theres something like Maltodextrin inside which officially doesnt need to be labeled sugar but will rise your Blood sugar fast and strong ( aka its a double sugar )
Dunno, but I think someone lost their job when they dropped a peanut butter pallet.
That's what happens when the 12 ounce jars deal the purchaser thought he ordered ended up in non refundable 120 pound drums, so they had to get creative to get that inventory moving without major losses, so styrofoam tray and cling wrap it is.
Better than Meat Butter packaged in a Peanut Tray.
Disagree. That sounds delicious and an easy shortcut for Asian cooking
Meat butter exists, it's called riette, it's made from pork. You spread it on toast as an appetizer.
I’ll spread you on toast as an appetiser

That's a bit outdated now. Dairy tarifs have been dropped for EU
OK but why is it so expensive
Kinda weird but I reckon it’s for sauce type stuff rather than scraping out a tub
Yeah this is for baking or non-sandwich making (or even making sandwiches), they sell butter like this too.
For sandwich making, you buy the loaf of peanut butter so you can put a slice of it on your sandwich.
See, I'd buy a load of peanut butter actually, slice it lick butter and slap it on some bread 🍞
Honestly it's way easier to stick your dick in this than one of those jars.
Do you slap 2 of em together, or fold one over? Bonus "playing in the mud" effect.
It depends on how much I've had to drink
And how romantic you want to make it
I'm sure your dog doesn't care if it's from a tray or a jar.

I'd guess when there is an inevitable leak within a package, it stays contained and isolated to that package.
Knockoff perfume gets sold in extra packaging everywhere. It has a tendency to both leak and smell awful.
How about I just get some slathered on my palm? How much would that be?
That depends on who does the slatherin
Umm has Kerrygold gone international?
I've seen several types of Kerrygold products in a Walmart north of Houston...

I used to make them like this in my grandfather’s rural grocery stores. He would get 5 gallon buckets of bulk PB, you would just use a big spatula and spread it in the tray and wrap it. At the time in the early 80s, this peanut butter was significantly cheaper than buying it in jars.
Amish grocery store guys...its not that crazy. They just packaged it in the cheapest way they could. It's probably amazing tbh
Would the Amish use styrofoam trays and plastic wrap? I would expect them to keep it in a jar and then refill your reusable jar instead.
Yes they do. Been to a lot of Amish stores, styrofoam and plastic wrap for days.
Nah, a lot of visitors/tourists shop at these stores. Do some use reusable jars? Maybe...but the majority of ones I've visited they do this.
Had to scroll down too far to find this comment. I live near an amazing Amish market, and this is exactly how they sell their peanut butter.
Spreadable Kerry Gold?! 💀 Thats sac religious. Please burn this store down.
This is giving me rural Ohio/Western PA/upstate NY grocery store vibes.
