    Almond butter is very good, comparable to peanut butter. My youngest has peanut and several tree nut allergies, including hazelnuts, so i generally stat away from Nutella and PB. BUT, I have tried Nutella, and let's just say that my daughter's allergy is saving my thighs.

    Nutella was just sued for having the nutritional value of a snickers bar.

    Almond butter is the healthiest.

    I love Smucker's Natural Peanut Butter, but I have recently discovered Natural Crunchy Almond Butter, and it is becoming my all time favorite! I eat a tablespoon.....or two....everyday.

    I've never had it. My hubby says it's popular in the UK. It sounds delicious.

    Nutella is amazing... I don't think it's great for weightloss though. It's my ultimate weakness. I used to eat in from the jar most of the time.... Not good :/

    Uh, from what I can see, Nutella is just glorified chocolate icing in a jar. I'll stick with peanut buter.

    I mix them. They are fattening, but I love them.

    And don't forget Toblerones either! Those are super good.

    I love both but Peanut Butter is my fave...specifically Simply Jiff (low sodium/low sugar). I just limit my daily intake to 1 TBSP at a time once or twice day. One of my go-to lunches includes an apple with 1 TBSP peanut butter spread on it. Yum!

    Natural peanut butter rocks my world. Only natural though, the other kind is gross.

    I have a jar of walnut/cashew butter which is really nice but the almond/chia one was nicer I think.

    French people eat Nutella. French people have a very long life expectancy. I spent a lot of years learning to speech French. I'm not giving up Nutella, though I consume it in small quantities. Viva Nutella!

    I am surprised I haven't seen anyone post anything about PB2. If you haven't heard, PB2 is a powdered peanut butter and it's awesome! I first learned of it from a nutritionist a few years ago and I've been so thankful for it. I get to enjoy my peanut butter without throwing my diet out of whack! :)

    PB2 is powder so you simply measure out a serving, adding water, mix and enjoy. It's 80% less fat & calories than standard peanut butter, but ALL the flavor & texture of real. I've been using it for a few years now and I love it. I use it on toast & it's great for making homemade protein bars.

    Google: PB2 for more info. You can purchase at a variety of well known websites (Amazon.com) and local store distribution is on the rise too. The maker's website is here: http://www.bellplantation.com

    Traditional 2 Tbsp – 190 calories Calories from fat - 130 Saturated fat – 3 grams
    *PB2 2 Tbsp – 45 calories Calories from fat – 13 Saturated fat – 0 grams

    THIS!!! PB2 !!!!
