  1. Mmmmm. Had my first taste of natural peanut butter today. Good stuff, but
    you sure gotta stir it a lot! I got the Kroger brand crunchy variety,
    $1.69 for a 16 oz jar. Ingredients: Roasted peanuts, salt. Total carbs per
    two tablespoons: 6g, with 2g fiber.

    I have only 3 flaws. My first flaw is thinking that I only have 3 flaws.

  2. store it upside down when you get home from the store, and your stirring on
    first use will be greatly reduced, then refridgerate. will be fine after
    that

    My ex used to buy natural PB and then dump the oil out. Talk about trying
    to stir or spread - it was almost impossible. This was when LF was heavily
    promoted and that was the way to get rid of a lot of the fat. Not to
    mention - the PB was exceptionally dry. I prefer my crunchy JIF.

    I buy Kroger brand, too. It's the best store brand at a
    good price and it's delicious.

    Okay, Okay. I have been buying Smuckers Natural Peanut Butter, but since you
    two are so gung ho on the Kroger brand, I'll try it. (as if I needed an
    excuse to eat peanut butter, heh)

    I find it almost impossible to stop eating Smucker's Peanut butter.

    About as bad as potato chips.

    Better tasting.

    Technically, they could have different amounts of salt in them. One could
    check the sodium content of both brands and see if it is significantly
    different.

    Oh, but they are! When I was in Charlotte recently, I tried the Harris
    Teeter store brand. They were even supposed to be "organic". And it was an
    off taste I didn't like at all. I took the two jars back and got my money
    refunded. There are different varieties of peanuts, after all, and they
    don't taste exactly the same.

    To me, there is a noticeable difference in some natural
    peanut butter brands. For instance, Meijer's brand always
    tastes stale. Maybe they use a lesser grade of peanuts?

    Luna,
    I find that storing a jar of natural pb upside-down in the refrigerator
    eliminates completely the need to stir it constantly.

    It's yummy stuff. I grew up on it and simply am not wired to eat that
    other (imo) garbage that people have grown accustomed to calling "peanut
    butter". It's not even in the same league.

    Well, after it got stirred up the first time, it didn't last long enough to
    settle again. Apparently my dad really liked it, there's about 2 spoonfuls
    left in there now.

    LOL Luna. You crack me up. Maybe buy 2 jars next time. 😉

    You prefer trans fats and added sugar? Gee. That's smart.

    I didn't say I was eating JIF - I only said I preferred it over natural PB.
    I actally have a jar of LC PB in my cabinet - good to eat with celery
    sticks. Excellent source of protein.
