Default Trader Joes Better than Peanut Butter!!

If you like PB and all of the health benefits it offers, but can't rationalize 2 tbs equaling 180-200 calories, try Trader Joes Better than Peanut Butter. This is the only place I can find it. I like the taste WAY better than regular PB, it kind of has a chocolate taste. Best part is that it is only 100 CAL per 2 TBS (half of regular PB) and also have less fat. Try it with sliced apples or celery.

This is good, it's weird you have to keep it in the fridge. LOL
I really love PB2 in smoothies for 45 calories.

I wonder if DH would try this. He hates anything "healthy" so maybe if I remove the label. Thanks for the heads up I will be looking for this.
