Swapping peanut butter

My diet plan has 40 gram peanut butter in one of the meals.

I was thinking of swapping that for a bar of chocolate with the same calories but more carbs and less fat

Would this be ok because it contains the same calories.

I am on a cut at the moment

    If it's the same cals, it won't matter 2 your "cut" effort whether you eat the peanut butter or the choc bar.

    Do whatever you want. For me as long as I am hitting my protein and getting enough fat, plus enough carbs I fill in the rest with fun foods.

    As long as you’re hitting your calorie and macro goals, then you should eat what you want.

    I agree with everyone else, as long as you are hitting form goals eat what you want.

    I personally would take both...LOL
