    I tried the fancy organic stuff, but it was hard as a rock on the bottom, and no amount of stirring was going to change that. I switched to skippy natural. The ingredients are: peanuts, sugar, salt, and palm oil. I'm ok with that, and you don't have to stir it.

    Freeze it in daily allowances. I am a peanut butter junkie too, a 350gm jar will last a week if I am strong. To counter the weak will what I have decided to do, and have done for the first time is take a 350gm jar of lite smooth Eta Peanut butter, when at home teaspoon it out on to grease proof paper or baking paper spoonful by 10 gm aprox spoonful freeze it on a tray. This morning I took out my first allownece and will have it as a dressing for fried tofu and salad greens with half a sweet potato done in the microwave and cubed.

    Smuckers natural :) LOVE pb. I also use PB2 which is a powdered peanut butter very low cal but I only use that to mix with a banana or ice cream. Also great in smoothies!

    I buy Skippy Natural...peanut butter seems to be the only thing I can eat for breakfast that keeps me from feeling famished half way through the morning.

    It's my number 1 cure for hiccups! But I am a fan all the time! Especially the real bad stuff, like Peter Pan Peanut Butter! Mmmmmm

    I am a PB addict! I can't buy the jars or else I will eat the whole thing! I stick with the JIF To Go cups, or order PB2 online. :)

    When I buy peanut butter, I get natural or "old fashioned" peanut butter, the kind with the oil at the top, and pour the oil off the top (to reduce the fat content). All that should be in this type of peanut butter is peanuts and maybe salt. I used to buy multiple jars and let them sit for a few months so there was more/better separation of the oil. I recently got a food processor, so I will be making my own peanut butter from raw rather than roasted peanuts.

    I love peanut butter. I like to buy it when it's on sale or a reasonable price. I can eat peanut butter by itself.

    I looked in the mirror and I will have to admit it. I am a peanut butter addict as well. My favorite is by Peanut Butter & Co. Dark Chocolate Dreams. The name says it all. It is peanut butter blended with rich dark chocolate. I am allowed one tablespoon a day. I portion it out because I will cheat, cheat, cheat and keep licking the knife! After I take out my one tablespoon, I can only eat it in my dreams. Hmmmm maybe that is why they call it Dark Chocolate Dreams. Yummy!

    I also love Maranatha chunky almond butter. Delish!

    I love peanut butter too! Trader Joe's makes a great natural peanut butter (salt, peanuts only) for just over $2. It is one of my staples when I make the journey there once/month.

    I got mine about 2 weeks ago, and am in love with it. I use it in my chocolate protein drink, and it ends up tasting just like a reese's peanut butter cup. I'm planning on trying it when I cook as well, but for now, it's totally my favorite add-in:)
