peanut butter

Anyone have anything to say about all natural creamy peanut butter? The ingredients are just ground peanuts. I put a teaspoon in the micro for a few seconds so its not clumpy and added some to my protein shake for some extra protein. (and extra taste,hehe) It is 16 g.fat for 2 tablespoons, and I suppose I am only having 1/4 of that, so 4g.for my whole day.

I am in my mushies stage and pretty much live on ff yogurt, broiled fish and isopure protein shakes with ff lactaid milk.

Check out the calories on that stuff, amazingly high in calories.

Have you tried PB2? GREAT stuff, much fewer calories, all the protein and fiber, and no fat. ;o) It really tastes good, it's real peanuts with the oil removed.

I don't have a link on this computer but someone should come along with a link.

I've tried peanut butter twice and got deathly sick both times. I used to live off the stuff and really miss it as a quick source of protein. Anyone else have this issue?

Like WasA said the PB2 is probably the best thing to add to your shakes.

Natural creamy PB is all I use around my house for anything other than shakes. I love the stuff. It is good to have in small servings but very easy to over do it. You do have to watch because of the calorie count. Also in case you did not know you should first mix all the separated oil in and keep it in the refrigerator to keep the oil from separating again.

Ok thanks for the powder peanut butter tip!
I was just reading the yes or no peanut butter post which got 3 pages of replies and it is very interesting how everyone varies in what they can and cannot have!
