Anyone have any reccomendations for a decent tasting all-natural peanut butter? Thanks for the suggestions.

I love the taste of natural peanut butter. It actually tastes like peanuts!
Are you refrigerating it after stirring? That may be the problem, seeing as how if you don't cool it, the oils will separate again. |

I agree on the taste. it take a few helpings to get used to the taste but after a while (once you get used to not having sugar in peanut butter) its pretty tasty.
Any brand should do. With natural peanut butter the recipe is always the same. Then again there is a billion dollar bottled water industry all using the same recipe too |

I like to use powerbutter. It's fortified with egg whites, so it takes care of both the fat and the protein. Plus, it uses honey instead of regular sugar to sweeten. safe link (http://powerbutter.com) Also, with some "Natural" peanut butters at the store, looking at the nutrition labels lets you know that they're no better than regular peanut butter, so watch out.

- Douglas What do you mean by "no better?" The natural ones ("Ingredients: Peanuts.") are better, since they don't have the extra sugar, sodium, or trans fat. |

The grocery store I go to, Publix, has fresh ground peanut butter at their deli counter. It's one of my non-paleo weaknesses. I would prefer a true nut-butter, but due to monetary obligations ($13 vs $3) for a container, I stick with the all natural peanut butter.
The ingredients says: Fresh Ground Roasted Peanuts It tastes exactly like a handful of peanuts too. I keep it in the fridge, but a pound of it usually only lasts like 3 days anyways. ;) |

What I meant to say by no better was that the nutritional profile for say skippy "all natural" contains more sugar per serving than some regular peanut butters.

As Doug says, some of the "natural" peanut butters from the conglomerates (Skippy, etc) have the following ingredient list: "peanuts, palm oil, salt, honey". If it's "stir-free," it's not natural.

Yeah, you got to check to make sure the ingredients list is "Peanuts." Many big-brand foods now try to claim "0g of trans fat *per serving" so the only way to be sure is to check the ingredients label.
If there's more than 2-3 things on that list, or any one thing that you can't pronounce, you probably shouldn't be eating it. :-) |
