    PB2 and they have Chocolate PB2, 4 pack is $15 bucks on their site. Its pretty good, you can buy a sample pack if you just want to try it out.

    Since everybody's already said the name, I just wanted to suggest getting the chocolate PB2, especially if you like sweet peanut butter. I wasn't much of a fan of the regular. :) At least try them both. I'm not sure if going through the PB2 website is the cheapest option, but they do have a "combo" order so you can try them both.

    They extracted the oils and you reconstitute it with water.

    PB2 is awesome- the brand is Bell Plantation. If you don't have it in your local grocer, you can go to their website and find a retailer.

    I question that too? Is the nutrition different or?

    Interesting. I might have to look for some of this - I can definitely see uses for it as a flavoring, like in smoothies or baking. I just ordered their $3.99 sample to give it a try.

    It's not necessarily better for you. In fact, "real' peanut butter is a good source of healthy fats and protein. PB2 is great for dieters though since it has far fewer calories and fat grams. If you can fit the calories for real peanut butter in your daily goals, I suggest doing that.

    The nutritional info is great with PB2. I love peanut butter so I was extremely happy when I found it.

    2 tablespoons (powder mixed with water)
    PB2 peanut butter - 45 calories, 1.5 g fat
    Chocolate PB2 - 45 calories, 1g fat

    Like a previous poster I like the choc better, it is a little sweeter.

    I eat them both on whole wheat toast, whole wheat waffles, mix directly with sugar free jelly for a sandwich (I don't bother with the water), use as fruit dip, mix with plain oatmeal. The possibilities are endless. :)

    I love PB2 - its great stirred into greek yogurt for flavor or added to protein shakes.
    There is also a brand called "Fitnutz" that is very similar.

    I LOVE PB2.... Peanut butter is one of my weeknesses so this stuff is great for me! They also have PB cookies for only 100 calories for 27 cookies and they are pretty good too! I order my stuff off of Amazon, it's pretty cheap.... my local grocery's dont carry it.

    I buy PB2 from Netrition.com

    Bell Plantation makes you buy 4 packs (at least they used to). With Netrition you can buy smaller quantities. That way I can purchase both kinds. Shipping was reasonable too.
