    I prefer the Just Great Stuff brand and yes powdered PB is all that and a bag of chips :D Come comp prep it's a lifesaver when my diet doesn't allow for the real thing.

    This brand is a lot better than PB2, I agree. It's almost not even in the same ball park. It's nuttier and more creamy.
    It's also twice the cost, at least here.

    Oh is it? It's a similar cost here to PB2. That's surprising because PB2 is so much more popular.

    Well, I just double checked (I have a receipt handy LOL) and actually I exaggerated slightly: I just bought PB2 for $5.96 at Walmart two days ago. Last time I visited here, about 6mos ago (I'm visiting my folks in WA State), I bought Just Great Stuff at Albertsons and had to pay $9.99 for the same size jar. Walmart didn't carry either at the time but they have PB2 now.

    I really only use peanut butter Asian peanut sauce, so I may try it.

    I use it for peanut sauce and I think it works great. Peanut sauce is one of my favorites and using PB2 lets me easily fit it in several times a week if I feel like it.


    Hmmmm...not a fan of PB2 so I've only been using in protein pancakes or my protein shake, but I do love sesame peanut sauce. I just saw a recipe that I wanted to try, so I may break it out & give it a try. Thanks!!

    I love it

    Makes a great peanutbutter cup shake

    Goes on lots of yummy desert things that are lower calorie

    The chocolate added variety is good too

    Amazon is my friend. A 1 pound PB2 is an $8 add on purchase now. Hard to beat as a protein add on.
