Hello all,
How do you guys do peanut butter, ive been on ww for nearly two months now and have gone without peanut butter because it is 5 pts for 2 tbls! ahhh, i miss it soo much but on 20 points a day i can literally not afford 5 points on one spread-- please advise me!!
Have you checked out PB2. You can buy a sample pack for $4. Just google PB2. It is 1pt for 2Tbs. It does not taste the same as Jiff, but it is not bad.
Try Better ' n Peanut Butter. I don't do WW, but I google'd to find out for you and it's supposed to be 1 point per tbsp. I gave up regular PB since I'm counting calories and fat grams, and I was sooo happy to find this. I usually put 1 tbsp on one piece of toast, takes care of the PB craving while using less cals than a whole sandwich.
Hmm, that's odd - I thought I replied to this thread. Anyway, I just wanted to say that I'm right there with you, missing peanut butter. I buy light peanut butter and only eat a tablespoon at a time - you can make a half a sandwich with only one tablespoon.
ETA: Ah, this is a duplicate thread. I'm not actually losing my mind.

Bell Plantation makes a wonderful powdered peanut butter that you just add water to reconstitute it. I make a great dessert putting a table spoon of the powder (1 pt) into ff sf vanilla pudding. Ends my peanut butter craving. When I make it to spread on english muffin, I add a little splenda to sweeten it since regular peanut butter is sweetened. The reconstituted Peanut butter reminds me of Natural ground peanuts, but with only a smidge of fat. Check it out on their website on line. I think it is just bellplantation.com. If not just google bell plantation and peanut butter. THey sell a chocolate peanut butter as well, but we didn't like it as much.
I am (thankfully) not a big peanut butter person, but I did buy the Better n' Peanut Butter for my husband (and for myself when I had the odd craving). I didn't really care for it - too sweet and not nutty tasting enough. My husband didn't like it, either. I may give that dried PB a try.
