Described as [one part spatula](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quadpack-serenity-tube) and one part spoon, the 'PBspoon' allows you to scoop out the perfect portion of the spread from the jar and apply it to your toast or to toss a dollop into a recipe. When the jar is nearly empty, the spoon can be used to scrap the sides or even to redeposit unused portions into the container rather than disposing of them.
