PB2 verses Trader Joes Peanut Flour?

I love my peanut butter and I eat it every day! :love:
I recently learned of PB2 (from this site) and want to try it. I searched it and discovered Trader Joes peanut flour. Anyone tried both and prefer one over the other? I think the trader joes has a few more calories (10?) but a few (3?) more grams of protein per serving, but what about the taste?!

    I just googled it and saw that apparently TJ's has stopped selling peanut flour due to low sales.

    However, here's a link to a place than claims to be the supplier of the peanut flour to TJ's

    http://www.southerngracefarms.com/peanutflour.html


    and this is the nutritional info:

    PB2 has 45 cals for 12(g) serving size while the above peanut flour has 110 cals per 30(g) serving size. 30(g) is 2.5 times larger serving size, so if you do the math, PB2 has 112.5 cals for an equal serviing size and only 5(g) of protein compared to 16(g) for the peanut flour

    I ordered some peanut flour off ebay and shall be picking it up Monday,
    I used pb2 before, just to stir into my greek yoghurt for some extra taste, but it is so much more expensive I decided to give this flour a try and add some stevia or something for sweetness since pb2 has sugar added.

    Thanks for the replies. I'm in Canada so it's hard to get either one of these, but I was planning on taking the trip to Trader Joes for the flour- thanks for saving me the disappointment! :-)
    I just ordered the PB2 from Amazon and maybe after that i'll try the flour if I can figure out where to get it...damn...didn't even think of eBay !
