After a while it kind of separates and gets an oily layer on top, but
I don't think there's not enough sugar in there to support actual
fermentation.

Peanut butter, because it contains oil, can become rancid due to the
decomposition of the oil. Fermentation is also a decomposition process
with a particular desired outcome in mind. Not too sure if you would end
up with an alcoholic byproduct from rancid peanut oil.

Honey can spoil if crystallization causes the sugar content of the
liquid to drop sufficiently.

I don't think I want a rancid raccoon in my house. I don't think any good
can come of that.

Your brain has separated and has an oily layer on top, that's why your
IQ is a negative number. All foods can ferment... sugar has nothing
to do with it... cucumbers are fermented in brine. When peanuts
ferment it's called rancidity... ferment = rot/decay.

Not all fermentation produces alcohol... to produce alcohol yeast is
necessary. Fermentatation is merely a polite foodie term for
composting/rotting

Nonsense, crystallization in no way affects sugar content. Honey can
spoil if contaminated, otherwise it keeps forever
