Kellogg’s UK has revealed its latest creation to the breakfast spread market – Crunchy Nut Peanut Butter – and it’s available at supermarkets nationwide from today.
Following on from the release of M&Ms and Snickers peanut butters, which are now available at B&M stores across the UK, Kellogg’s has teamed up with peanut butter manufacturer Duerr’s to create this unique crunchy peanut butter that’s filled with honey roasted nuts.
The new spread is packed full of flavour, combining ultra-smooth peanut butter with the irresistible crunch of honey roasted peanuts to bring a sweet twist.
This release celebrates the 40th anniversary of the ever-popular breakfast cereal and meets the demand of recent reports suggesting that peanut butter is over-taking jam in the popularity stakes, so the new Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut edition is set to make peanut butter even more desirable.
The jars are exclusively available at Sainsbury’s stores nationwide from today and will set you back £2.50.

UK Government announces £100 fines for ‘antisocial behaviour’ on public transport
Emily Sergeant
The Government has today announced plans to tackle antisocial behaviour on public transport.
In a bid to crackdown on loud music, littering, vaping, and other threatening behaviour on buses and trains, guidance was issued by the Government today for local authorities to prosecute and even issue fines of up to £100.
For many, playing audio out loud on public transport – also known as ‘loudcasting’ – has become one of modern life’s most irritating parts of the daily commute, but now, a new national campaign is aiming to encourage rail passengers, in particular, to ‘share the carriage, not the noise’ to improve the journey experience for all.
This will include reminders of the rules in place on the rail network and, if a passenger refuses to stop when asked by authorised rail staff, they can be removed from the train at the next station or face fines up to £1,000.
On buses, however, the powers for authorities were already made possible by the Bus Services Act 2025, meaning all local transport authorities in England are able to set and enforce their own rules.
Authorised officers – including transport safety officers and the police – will be responsible for enforcement, rather than bus drivers themselves, and they will be tasked with a three-step approach to deal with incidents. They will need to:
Engage with the person
Explain the rules and their impact on other passengers
Take enforcement action if they refuse to comply
“We’ve all been on the train when someone starts blasting music or videos from their phone,” commented Prime Minister Andy Burnham.
“It gets on your nerves and can quickly spoil the journey, so we’re launching a nationwide campaign reminding passengers to use headphones on trains. On top of that, we’re giving local leaders new powers to tackle loud music, vaping and littering on buses.
“It’s a simple thing, but one that will make journeys that little bit better for all of us.”
Ben Plowden, Chief Executive at the Campaign for Better Transport, added: “Antisocial behaviour is not just irritating, it can be a real deterrent to people using public transport – especially people with different accessibility requirements.
“If these new powers are properly and visibly enforced, they should help everyone feel safe and comfortable on public transport and enjoy the ride.”
