Thanks for the heads up, now we don't need to do one of those "whatever happened to..." threads in March or April. Very considerate of you.

Only thing that goes "bad" in nut butters is the oil in them turning rancid... not dangerous, but, tastes nasty. That won't happen in a couple weeks while you finish the jar.
If you keep it around more like 3-4 months, it could. I had a very nice dark chocolate almond butter that I savored slowly, and ended up wasting the last third of the jar... it went rancid before I finished it. Cry It took most of the year, including the summer months.

I've never refrigerated peanut butter, organic or not, and never had it go rancid... but then, I eat more peanut butter than is probably good for me.

Yup, most of a year tracks my experience.

opened a new jar yesterday and left it on the counter .... again.
definitely easier spread and tastes better than fridged.
