    I love peanut butter so much, even if it's almost two hundred cals. It's full of protein and it makes my apple slice snack much more enjoyable :smile:

    I consider pb one of the four major food groups, along with oatmeal, Greek yogurt and vegetables.

    Just bought some P2B and was a little disappointed. 2 tbsp of powder only makes about 1 tbsp of "butter". At 45 cals per tbsp, it's about half the cals of pb but not nearly as good. Plus, it has sugar in it. Dunno, I was just expecting more . . .

    I love PB2. It's great sprinkled on apple slices or added to my banana smoothie. I buy it at Hy-Vee grocery stores. I also buy the natural peanut butter (the type you have to stir the oil) and just pour off the oil. Doesn't spread well but can be put in smoothies or eat with banana or apples slices.

    Actually someone mentioned no-bakes. I have found them to be a reasonable snack and you get pb!

    If I liked PB (I don't like it), then I would eat it with toast.

    I carefully measure out peanut butter using my kitchen scale, and try to use just enough and no more than that.

    I really like PB!
    I put 1 tbsp in my homemade 8oz protein shake.
    I also put it on 2 slices of whole wheat bread.

    homemade! so I eliminate all the extra sugar and addivites and take it down to Just the plain nuts. it's really easy (google it), and way healthier... actually, homemade almond butter is even yummier and healthier than the peanut butter...
    oh yeah, I slice a nice tart apple into wegdes and scoop it (sparingly) into the almond/peanut butter :happy: :happy: :happy:
    this is MY FAVORITE FOOD!!:bigsmile:

    I don't eat alot of it because I LOVE it!! About once a week or 10 days, I'll have toast with a VERY thin layer of PB. Enought to get a taste and a little extra protein.


    Oh yea, and the occasional finger dip! LOL

    De-core and apple and smoosh the PB right in. You get the apples & PB treat and really only can get 1 TBSP inside. Perfect treat!

    I like whipped peanut butter, it's less calories than regular.

    With a spoon and bit of a guilty conscious, of course. ;)

    You should try making your own! Google it for a recipe, I can't remember amounts but you basically just throw peanuts and oil in a food processer and enjoy. I've been meaning to try that when I get around to cracking open all of the peanuts I have already (too lazy to go buy them de-shelled), but in the meantime I use Irresistibles Lifesmart 100% Peanuts, it's 90 cals a tbsp and is natural, crunchy and way better than any more processed PB i've had. I live in canada though, not sure if u have that brand in the US

    with a fork, that way i have a taste without using too many calories. smuckers natural crunchy is sooo delicious and it doesn't have any additives.
