Has anyone tried better'n peanut butter? Is it good in protein shakes or on toast. I'm trying to cut fat from my diet and looking for good products.

    I've tried it, and it's ok. It doesn't taste a thing like peanut butter though. It is very sweet. For protein shakes, I'd recommend pb2 or reg peanut butter. It's ok on toast, but I'd rather just have a smaller amount of real peanut butter.

    I use Better N' Peanut Butter sometimes - it's relatively tasty. Don't expect it to taste like Jif or Skippy, of course, but it doesn't taste bad. I use it on rice cakes. Once you open it though, it goes in the fridge, so not good for (untoased) bread because it won't spread well (if you are looking to make PB&J). Decent for celery, rice cakes, apples, things like that, and 80-100 calories less than most peanut butters.

    I tried it and hated it. It tasted nothing like PB to me.

    It doesn't taste like PB, but it's not bad. I'd never have it on toast, but I find it works well in shakes.

    It is sweeter, and has a different texture. But it is good, imo, and I buy both regular Skippy and Better N PB, because I like regular for apples and celery and I like Better on sandwiches.

    It's worth a try!

    It's also easier to deal with than PB2. Having to mix up the powder tends to make me choose the Better N PB rather than the PB2.

    But I own all three!

    I've tried it, and used it for a while.. then I tried PB2 and haven't looked back :-) If you don't mind mixing the powder (to use it as a spread), I'd recommend it over Better N PB

    Thanks, everyone. I read some other reviews online and think I will try PB2
