Better Than Peanut Butter

[CountessKerouac]

Okay...it's not quite as nutritious as regular peanut butter...but today I wanted to eat a lot of peanut butter, but without the fat. So, I bought this stuff and it's really good! Definitely not a substitute for PB, but it's good on it's own. Very whipped and creamy tasting and very easy to spread. All in all, I enjoyed it! :drool:

YES!!YES!!!YES!!! :vebo: I love this stuff! i discovered it about 10 years ago, and when i want PB, this is generally it!

What's in it? :confused:

Ingredients:
Peanuts (as de-fatted peanut flour and natural peanut butter), tapioca syrup, pure water, dehydrated cane juice, rice syrup, vegetable glycerin, soy flour, salt, tapioca starch, natural flavors, paprika & annatto, calcium carbonate, lecithin, vitamins e & c (antioxidants).http://www.peanutwonder.com/product.htm

Looks interesting... but I don't know. I'm still partial to PB & Co.'s natural peanut butter (even tho its not as low-fat/low-cal as Better Than PB). But the Cinnamon raisin swirl they have is soo good, and they have less/more simple ingredients. :)

Oooh...that cinnamon raisin swirl looks ridiculously delicious. Do they sell it in stores?

[Virtue23]

Yup!! :yes: They sell it at Whole Foods with the other peanut butters. And they may sell it at other health food stores, as well. I had the cinn. raisin swirl once before - its definitely delicious!!

I remember when I was looking to buy it, a guy who works there started a convo with me about how good it was, lol. I love WF - everyone is so nice there. :D

[CountessKerouac]

Oh, I know. My friend works there. She said they tell them to be as nice as possible, sometimes bordering on sappy. :p I'll have to look for it!

[Virtue23]

Oh - no wonder they always look so happy and welcoming, lol.

But I'm not even sure if this guy worked there (he didn't have on the typical uniform or nametag or anything - I just assumed that he worked there, maybe). Anyway, he spotted me looking at the pb from down the aisle, and walked up to me and said "man, that is sooo good." He startled me at first, actually. He was saying how it was great for dipping stuff in or even eating it right from the jar with a spoon. So we chatted for a bit about it and then he left. Weird.

Peanut Butter & Company also makes heavenly white chocolate and dark chocolate peanut butters. Mmmmm. . .

I tried Peanut Wonder- once. I thought it was pretty disgusting. Felt kind of guilty throwing out a $6.00 jar though.
