Shampoo.

Manifesto: Stop Using Peanut Butter as Shampoo

How did we end up here again? How did our society, with all its knowledge and technological advances, descend to this point? A world where peanut butter—a symbol of nourishment, simplicity, and homely warmth—is being abused as shampoo. This is not just a practical failure; it is an ethical failure.

A Repetition of Our Warnings

Last year we sounded the alarm. We protested, we shouted, we begged: stop smearing peanut butter on your heads! The oily substance, the persistent smell, the waste of a valuable product – these are just a few of the many arguments we have made. And yet we see no change. What does this say about us? Are we so lost in our own absurdity that we remain blind to the consequences of our actions?

How did this ever start?

It may have started as a joke. A social media fad, a so-called “natural” beauty solution. But it’s no longer a joke. In an era where many are struggling with food shortages, where the price of basic commodities is rising, some are choosing to waste peanut butter as a cosmetic. This is a global parody of common sense.

The Disastrous Consequences

Food waste: Every drop of peanut butter that goes down the drain is food that someone could have eaten. For anyone who has ever wondered how inequality in the world has grown, here is the answer.
Economic madness: Peanut butter is not a cheap product. It is rich in proteins and essential nutrients, meant to nourish bodies, not to cover hair.
Environmental damage: Peanut butter production requires agricultural land, water and energy, precious resources that are not meant for a slippery shower experiment.
Social decay: By using peanut butter as shampoo, we open the door to a normlessness in which anything goes, regardless of the consequences. What's next? Spaghetti as toothpaste? Honey as motor oil?

The Breaking Point of Humanity

Let us ask ourselves: who have we become? What does it say about a society that loses itself in such nonsensical trends? This is no longer a question of personal freedom. This is a collective failure to take responsibility for our choices.

A Call to Action

This is the time to choose. Do we continue to allow this madness, or do we tackle this problem at its root? We call on governments, companies and citizens to work together. Ban peanut butter as shampoo. Educate people about the absurdity and harm of this practice. Put peanut butter back in its rightful place: on a sandwich.

We refuse to accept this any longer. The time for jokes and trends is over. This is a fight for reason, for justice, for peanut butter.

Let's put an end to this absurd waste together. Our future - and that of peanut butter - depends on it.
