Peanut Butter & Cheese by Josh Burch is very interesting. A new oil and water with just 6 cards. The
download is good and thorough. This is a bit knacky and would be best as part of a routine, but can
look fantastic. Unlike other Oil and water tricks, this uses 3 red and 3 blue back cards, making it
more visual. The concept is worthy of more study and is best viewed as a starting point. Wait for
spectators who are not "grabbers" and this will be astounding!

The name is a bit silly to me but this effect is amazing. It's perfect for close up which is my
specialty. You get all the cards you need and the instructions are very clear. If you are brave you
can do it ina spectators hand but it's not necessary to do. Josh teaches you everything in an easy
and calm way which makes it easy to understand. He even goes over a way to hand out the cards, but I
skip that part. People are not begging to see them. Overall it's a very good trick and a very easy
oil and water packet trick.

Over the last 45 years I've always been fascinated and intrigued with "oil and water" routines.
I've seen, and purchased, most of them. Josh has nailed this one! Excellent routine! It uses only
six cards which to me is a big plus. It's a three-part routine which I feel is shown much more
clearly in the explanation than the promo video. Again high praise to Josh. I highly recommend
"Peanut Butter & Cheese."

This trick is so easy to perform, but fools almost everybody. I carry it around in my shirt pocket
and have shown it hundreds of times. Only two people have figured it out, even at a convention while
I was showing it to other magicians. I just shake the cards and they change positions. Seemed a bit
pricey at first, but turned out to be worth every penny. Well recommended!

Not a fan of oil and water? Try this. Stunning effect for something so simple, at a great price, and
it's also quite versatile. Get yourself a quality z wallet to carry it everywhere.

This is probably my favorite gimmicked oil and water. I was performing right along Josh for my first
time watching the tutorial. Super easy. The reactions were really good for this and the end phase is
eye candy for your spectator. The only thing is that I wish it included an extra set of gimmicks but
this is pretty inexpensive so no biggy. Josh is an absolute awesome creator of magic he nailed this
trick and can’t wait to see what he puts out next. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!

I'll use this on my act and have this in my EDC
This is so clever. The cards truly do all the work; you just have to shift them around a certain
way, but it blends in with the routine so well, the whole idea is to shift them around. You have to
be a little careful not to show anything more than necessary. It’s a multi-phase routine that
baffles repeatedly. I don’t know how these magician inventors come up with this stuff. I’m
impressed.
You just do what you say you're going to do, do it, show you did it, and they seperate. Almost too
perfect. I like perfect. In fact the handling I feel can be enhanced by having a Why answered.
Why are you handling the cards so technically? I propose that this effect can benefit from one
crucial element. "As clearly as I can, I am going to show you this in such a way as to remove all
doubt that I am performing any card shark moves, or using my sleeves. I will show you openly what
is happening every step of the way". This explains the careful handling, in fact it provides for
more careful handling, you are just wanting them to see clearly what the state of the cards are
before they seperate, or mix. Brilliant.
Great trick. Can’t do much with it like POW.
It is still a fooler.
