I love peanut butter and I just found a new brand called Naturally More. I usually eat Jif but I'm always looking for a healthier alternative to my favorite foods. Naturally More is fortified with flaxseed and flaxseed oil (omega 3 fat). It has 11 grams of fat 5 less than Jif, 4 grams of fiber 4 more than Jif and 10 grams of protien 4 more than Jif. It is a little runny but you refridgerate it after opening. And it has honey in it along with the sugar so it has a honey aftertaste whick takes some getting used to if you are not a big honey fan. But the benefits far outway the cons in my book. I got it at Walmart. If you're into trying healthy alternatives af your favorite foods give it a try.

Is it a pain to stir when you first open the jar? That is one reason I quit buying natural PBs - they were a real pain in the butt to stir and get everything mixed back together.

I would love something healthier than the regular brands. I love PB.

My vote goes for a product called Better 'N Peanut Butter This contains only 2.5g of fat (compared to 12g of name brands reduced fat) and only 100 calories per 2 TBSP serving (compared to 200). They sell it at Trader Joes As I mentioned in my blog, PB is one of my major weaknesses, so I googled a better solution. This also comes in a Low Sodium

Fresno.....you are doing great over 218 pounds lost,
that is amazing.

I just buy the Skippy Natural, don't have to stir it. I rarely eat peanut butter myself, but my 7-year-old son eats quite a bit of it and I wanted him to have the kind without the hydrogenated oils.

My supermarket has a vat of peanuts attached to a grinder and you can grind your own peanut butter. 100% natural peanuts. And you don't have to stir in the oil before you use it. It's great! They have an almond option, too.

The Smuckers website sells a stirrer-lid that fits on their smaller jars. I imagine it will fit on most pb jars of that size. I buy the big jar, and stirring it doesn't bother me, so I haven't tried it.

I too only buy the natural peanut butter...I dump the oil and stir a lttle bit of water...just enough to keep it spreadable....

Someone mentioned "Better N Peanut Butter" above, I recently picked up some at Trader Joe's last week and was pretty pleased, it is the same consitency as PB and the flavor is good although it's a little sweeter than the regular stuff, which was a little dissapointing because I don't like sweet PB. But all in all I am happy with it and maybe will just get used to it after a bit.

I got some Better Than Peanut Butter too and while I won't be using it on a pbj samwich, it's too sweet to me, I do heat 2 tbs in the microwave with 1/2 tsp hot pepper paste and curry powder, then I smear it all over air-popped popcorn. When it cools it turns into chewy popcorn ball like clusters.
Tis Nummy!

I fix hard natural Pb by popping the jar in the micro for 5 seconds Easy peasy
