Bacon is the answer you're looking for.
You're welcome0 -
for some things PB2 is terrific. I add it to smoothies or oatmeal and its great. Just mixed with water by itself...not so much. And thats ok. Everything I've ever tried from Walden's....was horrible.0

Peanut flour! Tastes just like PB2 without the added sugar and has 16 g protein per 1/4 cup. Far less expensive than PB2 as well. I purchased mine from iherb.com (protein plus peanut flour). You can purchase it from byrdmill.com. Great stuff to add into smoothies, yogurt, use for baking, etc.
PB2 basically IS peanut flour. And it doesn't have any added sugar.0 -
PB2. It's fantastic!

I order it in one pound blocks, I always have at least one full one or I am reordering. A wonderful product.0 -

I just look for ones with no added salt or sugar. I'm in love with 100% nutz which is a NZ one.0

PB2 is crap. I don't see what the harm is in eating regular, natural peanut butter. It's high in fat but they're good fats. I usually buy Adam's organic peanut butter which consists of just peanuts and salt.0
-
I just use the organic ones with no more than 2 ingredients: peanuts and sea salt. You can get them without salt, too, but then it doesn't taste that good.0
-
I use natural peanut butter that is just peanuts and salt - no added sugar or fats or trans fats or anything.0
-
I have both on hand, I like to put PB2 in my oatmeal and some cookie recipes as a flavoring. Although if you get that craving for creamy peanut butter on toast or apples, I'd go for the real thing.0

Foodie Fiasco's Instant Low Calorie Peanut Butter is only 15-20 cals a tbsp!0
-
oh, and natural peanut butter without anything added is about 80 calories a tbsp, and tastes pretty legitemate.0
-
I use organic almond butter because it has less saturated fat (although similar calories) and I also have a peanut intolerance.0

I've been using the Great Value Natural Peanut Butter from Walmart. Before that I was using the Jif Natural. because the regular peanutbutters all had Partially Hydrogenated Oil in them.
I use PB2 in my shakes though and it is great.
What I really love when I can get it is the fresh ground peanut butter from Publix's Deli. it is incredible.0 -
For those saying that they don't see what's wrong with regular peanut butter, while it may be a "source of healthy fats", at 200 calories a serving, it's not something you can indulge in a lot if you are on a calorie restrictive diet. For people like me who are completely obsessed with peanut butter and like to put it on/in everything, PB2 is the most wonderful thing ever. 2 tablespoons is only 45 calories, and because you add water, you can make it as thick as you want. I love making it more liquidy and using it as a dip! Put it in smoothies, oatmeal, shakes, cereal, baked goods, etc.
Regular PB is good, but it's just too high in calories.0 -
I used to eat Better 'N Peanut Butter. It's not bad. Now I just eat Natural PB, Almond Butter, Soy Nut Butter in small quantities.
I love fruit butter too in small amounts, like fig butter and pumpkin butter.

pb2 or I think jif makes a less fat PB. However, that being said did you know PB has more antioxidants than blueberries? FYI, the fat in PB is a good fat. PB2 is dried peanuts that you reconstitute in water. Some people like it. I think it is good for mixing in shakes, but not on its own.
Absolutely agree with this post. I will mix it in shakes but on its own it's terrible.0
