Why does everyone get so moist over this stuff? It tastes like a goat's hoof.

    I think it tastes great! I don't use it for sandwiches or such but I do add it to shakes and it gives it that peanut butter flavor with out the calories. I usually try to fit the real thing into my goals though.

    I like the taste....the texture not so much. I like it in vanilla Greek yogurt and in oatmeal (with maple syrup).

    I dunno, maybe this is one of those things where if you can taste a certain chemical, the food tastes bad. Like cilantro, or coffee. It tastes funky to me.

    Powdered peanut butter. They basically press most of the fat out (85%). Anyway if you are looking to trim calories this will do the trick.

    Imagine that, people like different things?!

    I like it. Tastes great in greek yogurt and ice cream, doesn't break the calorie bank.

    I will have to try it. I like to make a smoothie in the early evening as part of my dinner, if I have a lot of allowances left over. This PB2 would be an awesome protein powder for me. So many of the other "berry" flavored protein powders have a weird after taste to them. Vega makes my fresh strawberry smoothie taste artificial. I am glad I found this thread.

    Depends.......would I spread it on a cracker? No

    It's not that I never eat the real thing. But If I ate Jif Crunchy...."all day everyday"....I wouldn't lose any weight.

    Everyone trying to lose weight makes cuts somewhere.

    I'm curious about it but the price is putting me off (especially since I just bought a box of Quest bars).

    Why are you eating something you don't like? Because other people get moist over it? Really?

    I love PB2 in Greek yogurt and in my protein shakes. Put it in Cool Whip, too - kinda, sorta like ice cream. I love ice cream, and once I start to eat it it's hard to stop, so this is an okay substitute. One day I will learn I don't need a quart of ice cream in one sitting!

    PB2 is disgusting. I love fresh ground PB from Publix. The fats in PB are good for you. If you like PB2 and really have a low limit of calories, I get it. Not for me, though.

    Well, no. That's why I bought it though. Tried it, wasn't a fan, shoved it to the back of the cabinet.

    For me, I always feel like I'm gunna choke when I try to eat 'normal' peanut butter (other nut butters are even worse for this btw. Seed butters like sunflower butter are okay), though I LOVE it and want to slather it on for a great PB&J... which doesn't work so well. PB2 is a bit thinner and tastes exactly the same (to me). I use it just like normal peanut butter, and also use it to thicken hot cereal when I don't need the extra protein from protein powder (and have also added it to protein powder, though I think the milk proteins do something weird, as it turns the whole thing into peanut flavored water instead of staying thick like either peanut butter or protein powder).

    I mean... it's pressed peanut. Just like peanut butter. Why would it taste any different? There's nothing different between it and jif, except jif has the oil removed and then a different oil added, which to me actually tastes kinda gross. At least the little oil left in the PB2 is still peanut oil. XD
