natural peanut butter ?

[feelin_kinda_saucey]

do you guys pour the oil off the top of your natty peanut butter when you first open it, or do you stir it all in there ???

It's just peanut oil, don't short yourself by pouring it off. Stir it in and eat that baby up.

Good question! The one I got has 14 grams of fat per serving. It doesn't break down the fat by type. If it is good fat then not a problem. It seems to have more fat than some of the non-natural peanut butter and people recommend it. Therefore, perhaps the fat isn't necessarily the bad type?!

 

[bishonen]

Well, there isn't any partially hydrogenated oil (bad) in natural peanut butter (processed has some, but not enough to be on the label in most cases) and what fat there is, is mostly unsaturated (good)

I pour it off too cut the Cals but if I was a hardgainer or could control of myself around the stuff and keep it to serving size Id keep it in, Its all the the good unsaturated fat anyone would want in their diet.

Why the hell would you poor it out? Its one of the best reasons to buy natty peanut butter. Mix the shit up. yum

 

[Nutri-Wrestler]

Yeah, mix that shit up good. You wouldn't buy a bottle of flax oil and poor out th oil would you? natural peanut butter is full of efa's, like flax oil is.

 

[blanit]

which efa's does it actually contain?

 

[Puttn]

mainly mono

Natty PB comes from Lugumes not nuts, The Ratio per serv is usually 9gr Mono's to 4gr Poly's to 2gr Sat, not bad, but not as much linoleic as walnuts and Almonds, I prefer Walnuts/Flax Oil and Salmon for my EFA's.

Pouring all the oil off is a bit silly I admit but when your like HAZ and Myself and will polish off a jar in 5-10 Minutes.....you have to cut the cals anyway you can or just not buy it, I have recently chosen the latter.


I was buying No Sodium or Sugar added NATTY KETTLE Butter PB, it came in 11oz Jars so the caloric Bombs werent too bad. KB is HAND made and by Far the BEST natty PB out there, Laura Scudders tastes like ASS, they use ass peanuts.

Arrowhead Mills no Salt
and
Kettle Butter no salt

are the very best out there on the Market aside from those Grinders they have at places like Wild Oats and Such that have there own Grinder. But if they aint Valencia peanuts....its probably gonna suck IMO.



Beware of the SugarFree Smuckers Spread, I would put a Tbls or two of that in a Coffee cup, with like 3 Tbls of Natty PB and I would try to slowly enjoy it like that with a spoon, before I knew it... I was scooping the Jam into the Jar of PB and going nuts!!lol
