Should you put peanut butter in the fridge?

What does rancid peanut butter smell like?

It may also look darker in color or it might smell funky (sharp, bitter, soapy or metallic odors are a giveaway).

What happens if you eat rancid peanut butter?

To prevent this, peanut butter should be stored in the refrigerator, away from heat and humidity and eaten before the expiration date.
