I just found something amazing at target. Its called "Better'n Peanut Butter" its GMO free all natural no preservatives and best of all only 100 calories per serving!! ( Two tablespoons) It doesnt taste exactly like regular peanut butter, but it is just as delicious and satisfying!!xD

    Thank you! Is it a Target brand? We do not have a Target here. I LOVE peanut butter and miss it immensely. I have been eating natural peanut butter which is amazing, but still lots of calories, sugar and fat.

    Lies. Nothing is better than peanut butter.

    P.S. your username rocks. Scarlet Begonias is one of my favourite songs.

    It's definitely not the same and a LOT dearer but have you tried PB2? - it's about £8ish on amazon - I don't usually do the reduced fat thing but peanut butter puts me way over on cals.

    Sorry, ignore that - I thought when you said 'over here' you meant UK.

    I'm suspicious! It's still made of peanuts? What's the process to make it?

    The process to reduce the fat content seems fairly complicated:

    Ingredients: PEANUTS (AS DEFATTED PEANUT FLOUR AND NATURAL PEANUT BUTTER), TAPIOCA SYRUP, PURE WATER, DEHYDRATED CANE JUICE, RICE SYRUP, VEGETABLE GLYCERIN, SOY FLOUR, SALT, TAPIOCA STARCH, NATURAL FOOD FLAVORS, PAPRIKA & ANNATO, CALCIUM CARBONATE, LECITHIN, VITAMINS E & C (ANTIOXIDANTS).

    Lots of processing. I hear almond butter is really good for you though. You just have to be careful of serving size bc it's so dense in calories :)

    Yuck, I bought it at Trader Joes and tried it and then gave it to my kids to make bird feeders with.
