    If your addicted to it,you should def try a healthier option,they sell peanut butter called "Naturally More" the slogan on the bottle says "what peanut butter should be"...

    When you first open it you will see the natural peanut oils floating on top,you'll need to stir it first...but the oils just show how natural it is,and it tastes amazing! Just like the good stuff your "hooked to" but It has more protein, more fiber, less sugar (carbs), No Trans fats and has Omega-3 with Fax seed....you should def give it a try :D

    Sandy! I didn't know you were on here. ;)

    I'm sorry,but how do i know you? i'm so bad with remembering people sometimes :(

    I love peanut butter. I buy the natural type (the kind that has the oil separated) and I pour the oil off the top instead of mixing it in. I also use PB2 sprinkled on apple slices, bananas and added to green smoothies. Peanut butter flavor with fewer calories.

    I love peanut butter. Didn't have it growing up as back then, it really wasn't a big thing here in the Uk, so only had it as an adult, and fairly recently. However, I found I wouldn't stop at just 1 tbsp and was having 4 tbsp a day, so I stopped buying it. I went for the whole earth and then meridian, the latter of which contains only peanuts and nothing else.

    I now spend a fortune getting pb2 to the Uk and just mix it in with my greek yoghurt, and that does as well for me.

    But calorie dense is NOT the same as junk. Nuts, seeds and nut butters are very healthy foods.

    I find eating healthy fats for snacks satisfies me in a way that carbs don't, and controls my desire for food between meals.
    I have gotten into exotic nut butters lately. Pecan butter = awesome. Cashew butter = even awesomer. Vermont Peanut Butter Green Mountain Mojo (peanut & almond butter blend with pumpkin seeds and flax) = awesomest.

    Making a shopping list for Whole Foods right now. :)

    I think I need to make a trip to Whole Foods for some Green Mountain Mojo! That does sound awesomest! I normally get Smucker's natural, but Crazy Richard's was actually on sale! So yeah, that's what I'm using now. If I run out of pb, I seriously miss it!
