What Happened To Peanut Butter Pump After Shark Tank?
By CRISTINE STRUBLE
Andy Scherer, aka The Nutty Inventor, brought his invention the Peanut Butter Pump to the “Shark Tank investors during Season 11. The invention, which fits inside the peanut butter jar dispensing it one push at a time, did not get a deal, but what happened after Scherer’s appearance?
Although the sharks did not bite on Scherer's concept, the product still has a presence online. The brand has a website, but the product is currently "sold out." In addition, the product description references March 2020, which makes the product availability skeptical.
However, in an August 2022 update, the brand's Indiegogo page stated that product samples were received, and additional manufacturing tweaks will be made, but an exact availability date wasn’t provided. Time is of the essence, because, now that peanut butter companies have started selling squeezable containers, the Peanut Butter Pump could quickly be rendered completely unnecessary.
