honestly? put some peanuts in your blender and blend them until they are the consistency you like. i have made my own very easily this way. you do NOT need to add oil to make peanut butter in a blender. and you can add your own honey and whatever else you like to it.0

I like stines idea. But you could also just purchase natural peanut butter that is made with peanuts and thats it! Trader joes has its own brand that I am addicted to. And you can add honey to it yourself.0

Any "natural" brand should be fine. Don't spend a lot on fancy "no stir" varieties, because it really just takes 2-3 seconds to stir peanut butter. A lot of the natural varieties in my city are located in a refrigerated aisle near the cream cheese and butter.0

Carbs generally increase trigs, not fat. Just buy a natural peanut butter, the contents will show just peanuts.0

Laura Scudders, Trader Joe's own brand, Jiffy's all natural. Plenty of choices.0

Smucker's natural...like crack in a jar!!!0

Look at the labels. Even the natural peanut butters have added crap to them.
Look for ones that only say peanuts. or if they have peanuts and salt. Krema is a good one.0 -
Thank you all for these wonderful ideas....0

Adams peanut butter and costco has a Kirkland brand all natural peanut butter.0

Natural grocery stores or some regular ones you grind the peanuts in their grinder right there, so raw.
Or go to a natural grocery store and try one. Or even better, almond butter is healthier for you. Or Earth Balance has PB that is great, or PB mixed with coconut oil in a container by the same brand(it's yummy), and my all-time fav is a natural brand we get from Whole Foods, 365 brand it's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good and I hate peanut butter but I'll eat that stuff, it just tastes so good and natural/fresh.0 -
Don't let "organic" be your guide - read the ingredients. I just found out that my "O" organics peanut butter has organic palm oil in it. *glowers*
Kirkland Natural has nothing but peanuts and salt - you can probs get unsalted too.0 -
I LOVE PB2. You have to order it online. Mix as directed and mix a splenda packet in with it... AWESOME!!!! Low cal / Low carb / NO OIL0

My favorite brand is Krema's natural creamy. Only ingredient is peanuts.0

PB2 is a miracle food. It's powered peanuts - no butter. Add what you like or toss it into a smoothy or dip a banana in it. It's great!0

My local Winco store has grind-your-own peanut and almond butter. Nothing in it but nuts. :flowerforyou:0 -
Big fan of Teddy Peanut Butter. Just Peanuts and Salt. We buy both the smooth and extra chunky because my wife doesn't really care for the extra chunky. Shes a weirdo but I love her...
Here's my quick tip. When you buy natural peanut butter before you open it put it in the cupboard upside down. The oil that seperated to the top will work it's way back through the peanut butter before you open it given a day or 3. Then it's much easier to stir up.0 -
WOW!!! Thank you all!!!...my daughter and I looked at many peanut butter brands in our local store and were either finding hydrogenated vegetable oil or 2 inches of oil sitting on top of the peanut butter...I will definately look at all my options here...YOU ARE ALL SO WONDERFUL!!!0

This! My personal fav0 -
The PB2 tastes like chemicals to me... was so sad since so many rave reviews on MFP
I agree with those that have mentioned reading the labels and the ingredients only saying 'peanuts' as well as the suggestion to try the almond butter. You can get either freshly ground at Whole Foods (if there is one near you); generally near the bulk section.0 -

My local health food store carries PB2 for $4.50 a bottle!!!0
