Most people know that peanut butter can be used to rescue you from a sticky situation. Peanut butter has been used by moms for decades to get gum out of hair. The oil in the peanut butter dissolves the gum paste and voila the gum is easier to remove.
Peanut butter, however, can also cause some sticky situations. Take the story of the New England based raccoon who was recently rescued by the Cape Wildlife Center. The poor little fella got his head trapped in a peanut butter jar.
The masked peanut butter bandit did elude rescuers for a while. When they finally caught up with him, they had to use a grabber to pull the jar off his head. We are sure the raccoon was happy to be out of that dangerous and nutty situation.
