Hello, in the info box, can we please also add the phrase “peanut butter spreads” to the product type, so that it reads “Peanut butter and peanut butter spreads”? These products are a part of the Skippy brand portfolio, and the distinction of brands is similar to Jif, the maker of “peanut butter and other nut butter”. Thank you. Skippy peanut butter and peanut butter spreads are currently sold in 16 varieties: • Creamy Singles • Creamy • Extra Creamy Super Chunk • Creamy Roasted Honey Nut • Reduced-Fat Creamy • Reduced-Fat Super Chunk • P.B. Bites Double Peanut Butter • P.B. Bites Pretzel • P.B. Bites Granola • P.B. Bites Graham Cracker • Natural Creamy • Natural Creamy Spread • Natural Honey Creamy Spread • Natural Extra Crunchy Super Chunk • Natural Creamy with Less Sodium & Sugar • Natural Extra Crunchy Super Chunk with Honey

Hello, in the history section, can we please add information about a peanut butter festival that is a part of Alameda and Skippy's history? “From 2002 - 2011, Alameda honored Skippy Peanut Butter's birthplace and original production center annually with a Peanut Butter Jam Festival. The festival includes peanut butter-themed snacks, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, mini Skippy jars and a peanut butter recipe bake-off.” Thank you.

I don't see where it's mentioned that this event was recurring for 9 years. EBT mentions the "Fifth Annual" peanut butter jam and music festival, but this claim invokes the Skippy brand name on only one occassion: the 2006 festival. And while it claims this as a "homecoming", it's not entirely clear what was coming home — just the Skippy brand name peanut butter, in the form of samples handed out to festival-goers — or the company itself, returning to once again be manufactured there. If this is a yearly event occurring to the present — then I would call that relevant, and say it should be included. If it's an event which occurred a handful of times, but then never happened again — I would call that a valedictory rather than a homecoming. Please advise as to number of years, along with references. Thank you .spintendo⋅⋅) 14:24, 18 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
