Yes you're right, I meant to say without added sugar.
Peanut butter! Mmmmmm!

I have Kraft smooth pb on one slice of bread sometimes during the day or a tbs. of pb anytime. If I didn't have Kraft pb, my pb addicted Daughter would faint. PB doesn't bother me any. The bread, I need a bit of Insulin.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE peanut butter. If I developed a peanut allergy, I would be devastated to say the least lol. I think I could probably eat a whole jar at once (albeit, not a smart move...but man that sounds tasty!). PB doesn't bother me, but I love to eat it on crackers w/ Nutella...and that's where I have to watch my consumption lol.

My roommate eats skippy natural, but to me the taste is way salty ( 125 mg Sodium per serving ). I prefer Jif Natural (80 mg sodium per serving). It has a slightly more "peanut" taste than regular peanutbutters, and it contains no hydrogenated oils (bonus! ;-)
Hello, my name is Susy and I am addicted to Jif Creamy Peanut Butter... LOL... I LOVE IT!! I have it everyday and it doesn't affect my bs at all. I can only eat it on one peice of toast. (two puts me way high), or on an apple or banana.... I totally love it.... And there is cinnamon in it too which lowers bs.
Friend and near daily companion, but I do bolus for it per the label.
I ea it 3 times a week with trader joes rice cakes or with Ezekiel bread. I dont eat the skippy or those type of brand peanut butter. I will eat the trader joes almond butter or a rand that doesnt include all that added stuff skippy has. Thats just me lol
Skippy Natural actually only has peanuts, sugar, palm oil, and salt. So not too bad, but I'll have to check out trader joes next time I go.
Love the Trader Joe's chunky! I often have a couple of tbsp on a whole grain waffle for breakfast, sometimes I can't resist dribbling 1/4 tsp of honey on it. Yummmmmmmm
I love peanut butter! I buy Trader Joe's organic creamy pb (made with Valencia peanuts, the best!). It only has peanuts and salt. I even have a peanut butter cookbook, "The Ultimate Peanut Butter Book" by Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough. Now that is dedication to peanut butter. A low carb ultimate dessert is bittersweet chocolate scooped in peanut butter. You guys are making me hungry.....
Trader Joes organic PB on half an apple is often breakfast and /or lunch for me. I love peanut butter!
I switched from lunchmeat to peanut butter for the last couple of weeks and it seems to be fairly pleasant. Not quite as tasty but I feel a healthier glow?
I can't have it in the house. My demented idea of a "serving" of peanut butter is a jar and a spoon. Gah.

I'm the same way with creamery butter -- I can go through a stick in the morning and have no idea where it went -- and yes, I live alone, and no, there are no large butter-eating rodents living under my stove.

Some things just sing to me way too loud.
