    It depends I think on what your using it for, I like a tiny amount of peanut butter with like celery, adds in a little more protein and it's great for snacking. My husband likes Nutella, he'll eat it with like toast which is also great, never tried the Almond butter but sounds amazing! Good luck!

    Nutella all the way.. but that's only because it tastes incredible! Something I used to love to eat as a child when I lived in Athens and they had Croissants filled with Nutella in the inside.. amazing!

    ha ha I love you :flowerforyou:

    Sunbutter is good too (sunflower seeds) as is cashew butter, any nut butter actually is fine with me. NUTELLA....ah yeah that is like crack to me too.

    Nutella is crack - one taste and I'll end up in a back alley dumpster covered in empty Nutella jars.

    ROFL. I love Nutella and this visual is just great.

    almond butter! just the almonds. :) nutella is more of a treat. natural peanut butter is also fine but almond butter is a great choice for getting your vitamin e. Also, almond butter is from a tree nut, whereas peanuts are actually legumes and can cause bloating in some individuals.

    okay, i agree. nutella is a trigger for me and for me, it's like crack in a jar!
    LOL. I agree! Wish almond butter wasn't so expensive though. I could OD on Nutella crepes so that's off my list completely!

    Not really interested in PB2 because it seems like its highly processed... unless I have been misinformed

    What's wrong with processed?

    Have you ever tried PB2 chocolate? It's not nutella (nothing will ever compare to the heaven that is nutella) but it's peanut buttery chocolate hahaa

    I agree with everyone, Nutella is a trigger that I didn't even know I had. I just finished the jar and will not be buying it again. At least not at this time until I can get my addiction under control. I'm a Jif girl that really needs to change to the natural PB.

    Have whichever you like.

    From a nutritional standpoint, almond and peanut butter obviously have more to offer.

    If you love PB but want to avoid the added sugar etc that is in PB2, then why not just get some roasted peanut flour?

    i mix that with water or almond milk until thick and creamy like peanut butter but with much less fat for when I don't have enough fat macros left.

    Never buy PB2. The roasted peanut flour also tastes better. Also great with a little maple syrup added to make maple PB.

    The question is are you going for healthiest or most delicious? Because Nutella is by far the most delicious, but it is no where near the healthier choice.

    Nutella is no less healthy than peanut butter.

    Am I the only one who doesn't like Nutella? I find it sickly sweet and unpleasant.

    Love nut butters, I like to vary them each time I finish a jar.

    Cant have Nutella in the house cause it goes in my mouth, all in one sitting. Almond butter is yummy but so are all of the other flavors out there.

    Depends on what you like and how it fits into your day.
    I like all three, but I eat my natural peanut butter more often.

    However, lately I've been eating my peanut butter WITH my nutella. Best of both worlds!

    Either way, you are going to consume a crap ton of calories and fat

    Whatever you like. But nutella has added sugar, and the other two should not.

    nutella has hazelnut butter added to sugar...
