PB2?

Okay I've seen this on health blogs for the past couple of months and was curious wtf the big deal was. A few days ago we ran out of peanut butter in our house. Creamy pb, which is the only kind i will eat. So I went to the store to buy some more and I ran across this. This was essentially the same price as regular peanut butter and had less ingredients and a higher sex appeal than skippy. I say higher sex appeal because PB2 was in the health aisle and Jiffy was next to sugar free orange spread.

What is PB2? Simple. It is roasted peanuts, salt and sugar. It comes in a lose powder so you mix two tablespoons with a tablespoon of water then presto!!!!!!!!!!!! Peanut butter!!!!!!! It was good. They have a hazelnut one which i think is suppose to be like nutella.

The huge appeal aside from the little ingredients used is also the fact that it does have less fat than other peanut butters. I'll say again, fat is not bad and shouldn't be avoided in diets however too much of a good thing is a bad thing. Stay away from fat free items, eat the fat but don't binge on it.
