Jif® Teams Up with Neil Patrick Harris to End Snack-Time Parenting Struggles

"Parenting is a hilarious adventure full of plenty of struggles, especially when it comes to snack-time," said Harris. "As the father of 7-year-old-twins, I get it. Jif peanut butter is a snack time staple in the Burtka-Harris house, and now so are Jif Power Ups – a win/win solution with a taste my kids love and the nutritional value we feel good about."

Best known for his comedic roles, Neil Patrick Harris will bring Broadway-worthy parent-kid struggle moments to life both online and on-stage, including hosting a live-streamed comedy show, The Parenting Struggle is Real…FUNNY!, reenacting real-life, user-submitted parenting stories with the help of other comedian parents. And SPOILER ALERT, this comedy show divulges the ultimate snack-time struggle solution: Jif Power Ups – equal parts delicious and wholesome.
