If you’ve ever struggled with a knife to get the last bits of peanut butter from a jar, you’re not alone – but it turns out there is a much simpler way.

A TikTok user has revealed how you can get the dregs out of your peanut butter and mayonnaise jars by screwing the lid onto the jar and spinning it around twice on the floor – which whips up and moves the food towards the top.

‘Don’t ask me where I learned this,’ US-based user Equivocal Intuition posted alongside his clip.

A TikTok user has revealed how you can get the dregs out of your peanut butter and mayonnaise jars by screwing the lid onto the jar and spinning it around twice on the floor (pictured after being spun on the floor)

The video shows him replacing the lid onto a half empty jar of peanut butter and spinning the jar on the floor twice.

He then re-opens it, and the jar looks as if it’s full again with a whipped texture on top. 

At present, more than six million people have viewed the trick, with thousands leaving comments about how impressed they are.

She showed that water should be poured onto the flat spots separating the grooves, allowing it to trickle down gently into the four surrounding sections without splashing or overflowing instead of just filled at the sink (pictured)

This isn’t the first TikTok trick to impress people in recent weeks, either. 

Last week, US-based TikTok user ‘Brittnaenae’ shared a 10-second clip showing how to fill up an ice cube tray correctly.

She showed that water should be poured onto the flat spots separating the grooves, allowing it to trickle down gently into the four surrounding sections without splashing or overflowing. 

‘Am I just dumb? Or did nobody else know this either? These little flat spots on ice cube trays are where you’re supposed to fill the water,’ she says in the video, which has been viewed 4.3 million times since it was shared earlier this month.
