I eat almond butter (crunchy) and find it a lot more tasty than peanut butter.
It’s also a lot more costly, but I think the oil is better than peanut oil.
If you have a good relationship with the health food store owner you can order it by the case at a discount.
You guys think too much sometimes, just eat the shit!!!
Greek, I am feeling you, but I would like to add that cashew butter is the best I have had so far, and I will not switch for the life of me.
I’ve been using Smucker’s Natural (unsalted) for quite some time. Once you start using natural style peanut butter it’s almost impossible to go back to the sweetened, hydrogenated, commercial crap.
Smucker’s can be hard to mix since the oil seems to separate quite a bit from the solids. I take 3 or 4 jars and dump the contents into my food processor; then spoon it back into the jars. It’s a bit of a chore but, I get a nice smooth blend. All get refrigerated.
Goddamn it!! I read this thread over 30 minutes ago and now all I can think about is peanut butter!! I haven’t had it in several weeks (trying to control the cals) and it’s now, officially, driving me crazy.
My problem is, I don’t have that little thing called “self control”. I will literally eat half a jar of that stuff (or until I’m sick) in a sitting. Not good for the diet. But god I love it.
And I agree, since switching to the natural stuff, the commercial shit tastes like exactly that… commercial shit.
Well we all know that natural peanut butter is good for you; what about orgy butter?
okay I have a nut butter for you feans, I am going to try and pick some up today, it is cahsew macadamia nut butter. I have not had it yet, cause it is always sold out, but I think today will be the day. Now if that combo doesnt explode with taste I dont know what will.
