    A few years back I ate peanut butter as my snack everyday in between my meals. I would just have a little bit on some graham crackers and I lost 40 lbs in 4 months while enjoying every bite. :) YES TO PB!

    Regular creamy Jif is the only way to go for me! YUM!!!!!

    I don't have it every day... but I don't think there's anything wrong with having it every day. I usually eat it with carrots, apples, or bananas. Occasionally I'll eat it on an English muffin. I usually only eat one tablespoon per serving, as I find that's enough for me. That way, the stats really aren't too bad at all IMO (for my macros, calories, etc).

    Moderation is key, right?

    I have it with fruit, in smoothies, by the tablespoon....

    Aussies - Sanitarium's no added sugar or salt isn't too bad!

    Peanut butter goes great with anything chocolate. It also makes an amazing cookie. It's also fantastic when you melt it and pour it on things, like bread/toast, waffles, etc. Inject it into some cupcakes. Make a buttercream frosting with it.

    What could possibly go wrong?That's my take on peanut butter.

    What could possibly go wrong? what could possibly go wrong?

    I could find myself in the middle of the night standing in the kitchen in just my drawers with a jar of peanut butter in one hand, a spoon in the other, and a mouth full of regret.

    PB2 is great for adding peanut butter flavor to recipes, but on its own, it pretty much sucks.

    I eat it on celery and apples....but I don't use the full serving. I smear it on until you can just get the taste and it curbs my craving for it. It ends up being like a half serving or less. LOVE IT.

    I think that I'm the only human on earth who hates Peanut butter! I can eat a Reese's cup, but not just straight peanut butter yuk! Other than that I think that its a healthy fat source.

    I use the "all natural" kind and I find that a couple of teaspoons is plenty for toast which is my breakfast on most days.

    This may be the only thing on which you and I agree.

    Well, I mean, the first two sentences. I'm pretty sure I disagree with your last sentence (insofar as it applies to regular peanut butter)...



    ...but two out of three ain't bad!

    great for bulking.

    calories / protein / fat / dietary fiber


    in my experience for cutting i don't have the discipline to just eat 2 tablespoons. way too many calories and the satiety of peanut butter isn't all that great. haha.
