Carver didn't invent peanut butter.
Contrary to popular belief, George Washington Carver did not invent peanut butter. He was one of the greatest inventors in American history, discovering over 300 hundred uses for peanuts including chili sauce, shampoo, shaving cream and glue. He was a pioneer in the agricultural world and many refer to him as father of the peanut industry. His innovations also increased the legume’s popularity and made peanuts a staple in the American diet.
The earliest reference to peanut butter can be traced back to the Ancient Incas and the Aztecs who ground roasted peanuts into a paste. However, modern peanut butter, its process of production and the equipment used to make it, can be credited to at least three inventors.
In 1884 Marcellus Gilmore Edson of Canada patented peanut paste, the finished product from milling roasted peanuts between two heated surfaces. In 1895 Dr. John Harvey Kellogg (the creator of Kellogg’s cereal) patented a process for creating peanut butter from raw peanuts. He marketed it as a nutritious protein substitute for people who could hardly chew on solid food. In 1903, Dr. Ambrose Straub of St. Louis, Missouri, patented a peanut-butter-making machine.

Stop Whitesplaining.
In all seriousness, I did not know that. That was one of the main things I learned in school during Black History Month.

It's time to stop peanut appropriation and libel.
The failures of our patent laws and libel laws show that the first amendment, plus most of the others, are outdated. Sad!

They told me thunder was the noise clouds made when they bumped together.
They told me everyone thought the world was flat in 1492.

We have to deal with many of the myths they teach in politics now. Maybe we should abolish them?

I don't think even the ancient Greeks thought the Earth was flat. Sailors were the first people to figure that one out...

If only government schools were as honest as George Washington.

He didn't invent either of those either.
