Peanut butter

Does anyone know how to stop peanut butter getting oily?

A few days after opening a jar, the peanut butter gets all oily.

Peanut butter is an emulsion of water in fats, oils, and peanut solids. "Natural" and nearly-natural peanut butters contain very little else, so they flow readily but also readily separate into oil and solids, and their volatile oils may evaporate after you open the can lid .Best is to keep it sealed and shake it up well.
Else ,use up the butter as fast as you can since it has a low shelf life.
