Natural Peanut Butter

florida_rjs · #1 04-04-2003, 02:43 PM

Hey everyone! Upon suggestions of eating natural peanut butter from this site, I sent my husband to buy me the Smucker's Natural Peanut Butter. I really wasn't thrilled with the taste, so I added a few dashes of Splenda! Ummmm! I think I will be able to make the switch to Natural Peanut Butter.

I like Smucker's Natural Creamy PB better than the crunchy.
I bought a jar of the crunchy the other day and I don't really care for it. I think the creamy tastes better.

I think you'll get used to the taste of natty PB and actually like it, and eventually even PREFER the taste over regular PB. At least that's what happened to me. I just LOVE the stuff now! And I've had times where I ran out of the natty PB and used regular PB instead and I can honestly say, I don't like it as much anymore. I actually think the natural stuff tastes BETTER.

i totally agree w/ Krypto. After using Natty PB for more than 2yrs now..i can actually taste the sugar and hydrogenized fat in PB like Jif, etc...

It's awful and hurts my stomach.

I always pour off the excess oil on top of my natural stuff and i enjoy it so much more. Also, different brands offer a little different tastes because of using different peanut types.

Not only is it a healthy alternative, it addictive!! lol!
I eat it regularly.

I agree! And not to mention the fact that it's soooo much better for you. I was buying groceries this morning and grabbed my jar of natty and a jar of regular for everyone else. My conscience just screamed at me saying "I don't care what they like better, this regular stuff, with all it's hydrogenated oils, is just down right dangerous for them to consume!" So I put it back and got a second jar of natty! [img]/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] They'll pretty much eat whatever I buy them, even though they may prefer the other. I just can't, in good conscience, feed my family food that I know is bad for them!

They'll thank me for it later, right? [img]/forum/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] [img]/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Yeah, hopefully. I do the same thing with my step son, been slowly trying to wean him over to better foods.
