My gawd, while you're at it why don't you put ice cream on top and be done with it!

With two tropical storms headed for the Gulf of Mexico I went out last night and bought some food that does not need refrigeration and peanut butter was one of them. As a late night snack I spread some on a piece of bread and it was delicious. I have not eaten peanut butter since the last hurricane before Harvey. This morning I spread some on my pancakes. Some of the brands on the shelf were three times the price of Skippy. I will never know if they are worth their price.

Have you tried Smucker's Goober Grape Peanut Butter ? I tried it a few months ago after many years of not eating peanut butter and enjoyed it. It is yummy and a great snack. Oh heck, we're going to die anyway. Might as well die with grape jelly and peanut butter smeared on our lips.

I haven't tried this, but my favorite jelly is grape! I'm going to put it on my shopping list....along with an extra vial of insulin. Hah.
 
I always keep PNB in the house since I get it from Costco when it's on sale, two 48 oz jars for $7.49 or $7.98 (forgot which). I hadn't eaten it for awhile. In the last month, I've gotten back into eating PNB with jelly and now daily...PNB with organic apple slices. I tried a brand of "healthier" PBN once. It was terrible. I'm glad Costco has such a liberal return policy. I prefer Jif but Skippy is fine too.
@win231 I've read that PNB is actually good for the heart. There was no specification as to what should be eliminated from the ingredients.

I've heard the same, as for what should be eliminated from the ingredients, anything and everything that isn't 100% natural peanuts.

I don't know if they sell it at Costco, but the Laura Scudder's brand is really good with one or two ingredients. Some brands try to improve the taste of natural peanut butter by adding extra salt & sugar.
It's the non-hydrogenated oil from natural peanut butter that's good for the heart - similar to olive oil. The problem with oil is when it's modified - which turns it into a thick saturated fat. That's needed for peanut butter you don't have to stir & refrigerate.

I find with the ADAMS that I have always bought, I mix the peanut butter well as soon as I bring it home, then place the jar into the freezer for an hour, then into the fridge.

The peanut butter remains perfectly stirred and creamy for the entire duration. No oil separation whatsoever.
