I know we all love our peanut butter and are told Natural Nut butters are better but have you looked at your PB Jar lately?
Are the ingredient: Nuts and maybe Salt? If so, you are in the clear and your nut butter is truly “Natural”. There are so many nut butter out there that state “Natural” but look closer at the label to see the sugar and palm oil that is listed in the ingredients. True Natural Peanut Butter (or any nut butter) contains only peanuts, and maybe some salt. Your nut butter should separate and the old should be floating at the top before stirring it. If you do not have to stir it, is the palm oil, high in saturated fats that makes it solid. Read labels! The word “Natural” has no legal or qualitative meaning in advertising. If you are one of those that thinks Skippy is truly Natural, look again… It may sound nutty but it is the truth! Read your ingredients!
