Peanut butter

Peanut butter is available in Uruguay at the larger stores, but it took me a long time to recognize it. I was looking for puré de mani or manteca de cacahuetes but the peanut butter in Montevideo is imported from Germany, so it's labeled Erdnuss Creme. You'll find it in the dulce de leche aisle. It's expensive: 127 pesos (about $5) for a small jar.
