Best Peanut Butter?

pb2! 45 cals for 2 tbsp and no crazy ingredients

I love the reduced fat peanut butter from publix. (I'm pretty sure it's the same as reduced fat jiffy). I just ordered some PB2 this week, so I'm hoping that it will become my favorite! Only 45 calories for 2 tbsp.

I like the natural peanut butters that I don't have to stir. Less sugar and less funky stuff. I use skippy natural and my little boy loves it as well. If it passes his test, it must taste good!!

Have you tried Almond butter or Cashew butter? Both are YUMMY in my book; but the cashew butter's taste is closer to that of peanut butter. I buy mine at a local health food store...expensive, but a little goes a long ways and NO funky ingredients.

Naturally More or Skippy natural.

I grew up on Adams PB and will always have a deep seated love for it. I'll always remember my sister and I hanging out in the kitchen whenever a new jar was opened cuz my dad would always dump into a bowl and use electric beaters to mix all the oil back in then put it all back in the jar. And we'd each get a beater to lick.

When I moved out on my own and was lazy with PB I found that of all the brands of cheap and easy PB I liked Jif the best.

When I started MFP and gave up my Jif, I first found Better'N Peanut Butter and found it an acceptable substitute but hated the scary ingredients list.

Then I found PB2 and it's been true peanut butter love ever since. I can't imagine life without it. I use it like normal PB in sandwiches and with stuff like apples, bananas and on muffin tops. But I'll also mix it with hot water and use more than the recommended amount of water to make an instant PB sauce to pour on ice cream or even shake up with a bag of 100 cal popcorn for an absolutely amazing treat.

Adam's all the way. Best stuff. Yummers

I love the ingredients list: Peanuts, less than 1% salt.

I grind my own peanut and almond butter at the store. It's cheaper and I can buy a smaller amount. I get annoyed with large jars of natural peanut butter because the oil rises to the top, you stir it in, and then when you get to the bottom of the jar it's super dry, so I like buying a smaller amount more often and not having to deal with it. I add a little kosher salt when I get home.

Skippy All Natural with Honey. It has no hydrogenated oils and really doesnt seperate in the jar. I love it!

I've never hear of Adam's Where do you get it?

I recently switched to Trader Joe's all natural. I have a T every day on a half a bagel with a half tsp of honey drizzled on top...I love it more than my all time favorite Jif....don't know what took me so long!! LOL

Yeah, I was excited also. Until I found it isn't anywhere within 50 miles of me.

I'll have to order online.

As tasty as it is, I don't know if you have to go so far as to mail order it. I'm sure you can find something just as good locally.

Skippy Natural here too. No one can tell the difference, and it doesn't have hydrogenated oils (which are REALLY bad for you!).

Agree 100%. Whatever you buy, look on the label to ensure it doesn't contain hydrogenated oils of any variety (watch out for misleading labels like that on Jiff which say "no partially hydrogenated oils!" but when you read the label, that's technically true there is FULLY hydrogenated oils in it).

I like Skippy natural because it tastes almost exactly like Jiff (which I love but won't buy) but is free of any variety of hydrogenated oils.

That said, about 80% of the time, my choice is PB2 (which is what's left of the peanut after the company has squeezed all of the oil out for peanut oil ... it's powder that you just add water to, to whichever consistency you like). When I need fats in my day's diet, I opt for Skippy Natural, but most of the time, I'm good on the fats, so I go the PB2 route. Love the stuff in a chocolate protein peanut butter shake where you can't tell ANY difference from regular peanut butter!!
