Answer 1

Here's an A to Z list of black inventors - see first link below, please.
The second is a list of famous black inventors of the 20th century.
The third is another alphabetical listing.

And the previous poster seems to be right:

"Carver is often credited with inventing peanut butter, but it seems others had created that product before Carver began his work with peanuts."

Peanut butter was invented and reinvented many times during history. Peanuts were known as early as 950 B.C. and originated in South America. The ancient Incas used peanuts and were known to have made it into a kind of paste-like substance. As a crop peanuts emigrated from South America to Africa by early explorers and then traveled by trade into Spain who then traded the product to the American colonies. The first commercial peanut crop was grown in Virginia in the early to mid 1840's and in North Carolina beginning around 1818.

According to the Corn Products Company, Dr. Ambrose Straub of St. Louis patented a peanut butter-making machine in 1903 and some unknown doctor invented peanut butter in 1890."

Yes, as we ALL know - it was Peter Pan who invented peanut butter.
