    I use Nuts N' More because it has some added goodness and tastes great.

    You have to order it and it's kinda pricey, but worth it to me.

    Tons of different options from chocolate to toffee...almond to peanut :)

    PB2!!!

    Yep, love my PB2. Plus, it's just a cool idea for a good use of "waste" product.

    My fave is Wild Friends Cashew Butter and Sesame Cranberry Peanut Butter. They are great to eat after a workout with wheat bread ????

    PB2!!!

    YUP!!!! Found the stuff at Walmart recently. 45 cals vs almost 200? Uh Heck yeah!!! The chocolate peanut butter is really good too. I even mix in about 1/2 tsp of honey and cut back on the water so it isn't runny.... Tastes soooo good on half an english muffin!

    I must be the only person that doesn't like PB2. :ohwell:

    I love the Smuckers Organic or All Natural, but the Target and Kroger brand all-natural versions are also really good. I LOVE peanut butter!!!! :heart: :heart: :heart:

    That is why :) If you LOVE peanut butter, a powdery version just won't do.

    I don't know about that...
    When fitting into your daily goals/macros, it works...
    I typically just like to add it into my protein shakes.....

    I'll buy PB2 when I can find it on sale, but mostly I use it as an additive to shakes or yogurt. For a PB sandwich it just won't do! Also, it doesn't drizzle over popcorn as well as the PB&Co Dark Chocolate Dreams.

    I'm jumping on the Krema bandwagon! It is a small-er local company with a quality product. But, you can just as easily make your own. Some health foods stores also have fresh pb on site, so you can bring your own container or use a plastic tub that they provide. You might also try almond butter - yum yum!

    I eat Skippy Natural because it's the best darned tasting peanut butter I've ever had.

    But it probably isn't what you're looking for.

    (And I also don't like PB2.)

    I'd rather use the calories on real peanut butter, i was doing the all natural thing but it wasn't worth the extra price so i just go with generic.

    I go by taste. The ingredients otherwise are mostly the same. If you're worried about a specific thing (eg sodium) in it, find a label that has low or no.

    I love PB. You'd have to pry it out of my cold, dead hands.

    I use either Smucker's Organic Natural Peanut Butter... or I just make my own in my Vitamix....if you are making your own, all you need is roasted peanuts and salt (if you want)... no need to add water...

    I like this one too. It's just peanuts.

    You're not. I think it's disgusting. It's like eating chalk paste.

    PB2! It's scrumptious and they have a chocolate one too!

    Smuckers Natural is excellent. No GMO in it, no sugar, a bit of salt. Also, there are some good organic brands. Make sure you buy a butter with only peanuts and, if you like, some salt. Nothing else.

    I don't hate it, but it is NOT replacement for peanut butter. I'd use it in smoothies to add flavor if I purchased again, but I would rather add a spoon of real actual peanut butter. I did last night and really 1 T of real PB made me "ice cream shake" super.

    there are studies that indicate you're looking at AT MOST 0.0032 g/serving of trans fat in the WORST PB containing partially hydrogenated oils.

    This says eat the one that tastes the best to you without guilt.

    I use chocolate PB in my smoothies so I bought the chocolate PB2 to save some calories, figuring it was just flavoring, anyway.

    My smoothie was inedible.

    It's a great ingredient in other recipes. It makes the best PB pancakes, and eventually I'm going to try to make chocolate chip PB cookies with it.
