Lots of calories, but it keeps you full. Love it!0

I still don't know why nobody but me has mentioned PB2. It's 85% LESS calories & still peanut butter with NOTHING added. No salt, no preservatives & no extra fat.
Wow. I can eat heaps of PB2 & not worry compared to one serve on regular stuff.
I recently learned about PB2 and it's fantastic. Still has great PB taste with a lot fewer calories. So versatile too, aside from adding water to it to make "regular PB", I also use it in it's powder form in my dessert smoothies.
Can't recommend it enough.0 -
Yay, but not by itself (except when I was a kid). Now, I only like my peanut butter in candy (and, I haven't had that since my diet). But, I love the heck out of PBJ sandwiches. Mmmm. I only use the Jif Whips now. They have less fat than the reduced fat PB and I can't taste the difference bc I don't eat PB that often. But, when I do, I eat it for about a wk.It is YAY for me, especially those extra crunchy ones. ^__^I still don't know why nobody but me has mentioned PB2.

Someone on my TL mentioned powdered PB once, but I never got the name. Thanks for mentioning it. I will try it today.0 -
My thoughts on peanut butter...I could not live without it, extra creamy PB is my fav and I would literally give up my wine in favour of my PB. Now that's saying something as I LOVE my wine lol :-)
Seriously though, it is a great healthy protein.0 -

I love PB.
There are some people out there, I hear, who don't like it.
:huh:0 -
I absolutely LOVE Peanut Butter, especially the extra chunky!!! When I eat it with apple slices it's the right kind of protein and carbs that fill me up for a few hours. I count it in my calories everyday!!!! Let's hope theres a peanut butter factory in heaven.0

Another vote for PB2 here! Less fat and reconstitutes with a little water for sandwiches!0

peanut butter is the greatest food ever invented! :drinker:0

PB2 convert here as well. LOVE pb on flatbread rolled around a banana every morning, but because of onset fatty liver disease I've had to cut waaaaaaay down on foods like peanut butter. Also, it seems to be a trigger food for me... if there's a jar of pb in the house I'll spoon eat it. But with PB2 I make just what I want, and it seems to satisfy me.0

Ewww. Lol. Maybe I'm in the minority but can't stand the stuff. Yuck.
If u love it dig in.0 -
I thought that it was a forum, but it's a group.. :laugh:0 -
Peanut Butter is the food of the Gods!!!!!0

PB2 is your friend.
For me, it's not the calories that get me...it's the carbs. It's but the piddly amount I can have per meal/snack in combination with my lack of control that makes it an issue for me :grumble:
I can maintain weight perfectly with an unrestricted amount of PB but I'm unable to lose & right now, my goal is to lose another 15 or so pounds & then maintain.
Pardon me for saying so...PB2 is sacrilege :laugh:0 -
Well, I have 6 jars in the house right now. One with the oil separated, a honey roasted local possibly organic one (just to see how it tastes, oh it's good), a smores flavor from the same place that my kid had to have, a couple peter pan and planters jars. Some in the fridge, some in the cupboards. It's a bit out of control here. But not ruin-my-daily-log out of control...0

In my opinion...a gift straight from heaven. A huge help when I'm trying to reach protein goals. It is so easy to overestimate though- I always try to measure portions out on my food scale, because otherwise I'll dive in and start licking it straight off the knife. Mmm. I did stop keeping crackers around the house though, because I can gorge myself on peanut butter and crackers so, so easily. Now I dip pretzels into it. And I use crunchy PB to make peanut butter and oatmeal protein balls for fast morning breakfasts. DELICIOUS!0

My thoughts on peanut butter are erotic ones. That's perfectly normal, right? RIGHT?0
