Friends Looking For Hangover Cure Invent Caffeinated Peanut Butter

(CBS SF) -- It may not be the best thing since sliced bread, but some people hope caffeinated peanut butter will be the next big thing.

A couple of friends from Massachusetts came up with the idea as a way to help cure hangovers.

They say one spoon of Steem peanut butter, made with caffeine extracted from green coffee pods, is equivalent to a cup of joe.

The makers say you might not taste the difference, but you'll feel it.

"We did not want to mess with the flavor," said Chris Pettazzoni. "We love peanut butter too much ... why change it."

The inventors advise taking a little bit at a time to avoid those peanut-butter caffeine jitters.

There are already caffeinated gummy bears, beef jerky and maple syrup if peanut butter isn't your cup of tea.
