Nuts ‘n More Peanut Butter

PER 2 TBSP: 182 calories, 10 g fat (2 g saturated fat), 46 mg sodium, 11 g carbs (3 g fiber, 4 g sugar), 12 g protein

Ingredients: Peanuts, Whey Protein Isolate, Natural Sweetener (Xylitol), Peanut Oil, Organic Flax Meal, Natural Extract, Sunflower Lecithin

I’m breaking our own rule by allowing a peanut butter with more than two ingredients rank as one of the best. That’s because I like the low sodium count, the fiber added by the flax, and are generally ok with xylitol. It’s a sugar alcohol that occurs naturally in strawberries, mushrooms and other fruits and vegetables, most commonly extracted from the pulp of a birch tree. Unlike real sugar, sugar alcohols don’t encourage cavity-causing bacteria. They do have a laxative effect, though, so heavy ingestion might cause intestinal discomfort or gas.

Tip: Everything in moderation

Generally, smooth varieties have more sodium, because there are fewer peanuts to take us space. If you’re gonna go, Teddie, go crunchy (personal preference)

Best Peanut Butter is Smucker’s Natural Peanut Butter Creamy

PER 2 TBSP: 180 calories, 16 g fat (2 g saturated), 115 mg sodium, 6 g carbs (2 g fiber, 1 g sugar), 8 g protein

The salt-free MaraNatha has far less sodium. Some of the others have an equal amount ofThe Teddie has slightly fewer calories. But unlike those, the Smucker’s can be found in your local supermarket, no matter where you shop, so it ranks #1 on my list. Made with no hydrogenated oils, this is the best mainstream brand of peanut butter on the market.
