so my sister turned me on to PB2. If you haven't tried it, you MUST! It's real peanuts, minus the oil and fats. Perfect for any peanut butter lover...read up on it! I bought it in shop rite.

    I love PB2, the plain and the chocolate, I used to sit in front of the TV with a jar of ordinary peanut butter, now I sometimes do the same with a jar of PB2, much less guilt and still as yummy, if a little more powdery! ;)<3

    I love it!! I made protein bars with it yesterday and am going to try a healthy cookie recipe this weekend! It bakes really well!

    It's really good stirred into vanilla yogurt too. A pantry staple for me!

    It is so perfect for smoothies, I admit I'm an addict! I'm not a huge fan of it for PB sandwiches since it doesn't have the sugar "taste" that I'm looking for with that. But meh, that's what the whipped peanut butter is for right? YAY for finding the joys of PB2~~~!!!

    I wanted to hate it. I don't at all. I still eat pb, but it's a decent alternative if I'm running low and still hungry. Also I've subbed almond milk instead of water for it and it was pretty decent. I usually have to chill it prior to using it so it gets the consistency I like.

    I eat real peanut butter on an almost daily basis and think it's totally worth the macros, but I love PB2 for my oatmeal or when I used to make protein shakes. It's also great to add when you're using real peanut butter. For example, I make these amazingly delicious breakfast wraps and I like to put 1-2 tablespoons of peanut butter on the tortilla before I put on the fruit, but I put a serving of PB2 mixed with water on top of the real stuff to make it seem like I've got more peanut butter on there than I do, for fewer calories/fat/carbs.

    I bought a jar awhile ago and didn't end up using much of it. The flavor is a little too "burnt" for my taste. It's palatable if it's mixed into something else with a strong enough flavor but not with just water added to it.
