Is the peanut butter bad if the oil goes to the top?
Natural peanut butter is made 100 percent of peanuts; this makes it very likely that the oil will float to the top at room temperature, which is perfectly normal.

So, the oil on top is actually a sign that you bought a high-quality peanut butter.
