Why was peanut butter invented?
Peanut butter was first invented by the Inca, but made a reappearance in North America due to its rediscovery by John Harvey Kellogg in 1895. Peanut butter was made with the purpose of helping older people who couldn���t chew solid foods gain nutrients such as protein. Although it made a reapperance in 1895, it was sold to the public in 1904.
