thendanisays Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 peanut butter, hands down. i like the teddy natural creamy. it's just so classic and flavorful, and i although i love almond butter, i'd rather have a handful of raw almonds over almond butter any day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peanut Butter and Co. is some good stuff. I've tried "The heat is on" and "Cinnamon Raisin Swirl". Lately i've just been buying trader joe's valencia peanut butter.

sydneyvegan Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Almond Butter without question...I have a bit of a peanut allergy so Peanut butter isn't such a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Smuckers Natural crunchy is my favorite...one of the few things I think taste better than an organic counterpart....although due to this I don't really buy it. I'd rather eat almond butter due to health reasons but due to price and the fact that I like peanut butter more...I never really buy almond butter.

threeloaves Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 I'd rather eat almond butter due to health reasons but due to price and the fact that I like peanut butter more...I never really buy almond butter.exactly. Every time Im at the grocery store i want to buy almond butter, but the price always deters me. I only had it once, and if i remember correctly it sort of resembled particle board.

Lean and Green Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 close one. considering i grew up on peanut butter, then learned from a gf long time ago that Britney spears used almond butter for healthy fat and started to use that, I gained much love for it. I'm going to have to go with Almond Butter (Marantha, Organic Creamy and Raw). It can be a pain in the butt to find raw peanut butter (i'm a raw foodist), they don't always stock it on the shelves which is another reason. Although, according to Mr. Wolfe, peanuts are a big biiiiiiiig no no b/c of the aflatoxins in all of them. Except for the ones that he and only he happens to carry, the wild jungle peanuts and now wild jungle peanut butter. I don't really care to buy $25.00 per lb peanut butter plus shipping online, it's a hard sale. I'll stick with my almond butter and occasional butter whenever I find it raw, which is not often. Only problem it isn't always so cheap either so I usually wait till it's on sale for like 12 bucks and grab a couple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harley Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Almond Butter (Marantha, Organic Creamy and Raw). Wish they made a chuncky version. Anyway, I love this stuff with some sea salt sprikled on it. I eat over 2 jars a week. I have tried different peanut butters in order to find one i like, because it is cheaper, but i just don't like peanut butter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I might get the regular Creamy, and Raw though. It's about $5 cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spine Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I prefer almond butter for nutritional reasons, but yeah, it can be pricey. I get mine (and all nuts and seeds) at Trader Joe's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odidnetne Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 The price doesn't allow me to have it often, but I do prefer almond butter, preferably organic, creamy and raw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live_Simply Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Crazy Richard's Peanut Butter (only ingredient: peanuts) from my local Safeway. I alternate between smooth and crunchy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Im Your Man Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I really love peanut butter. I never had almond butter but I will soon... (well, after summer, too much fat and calories). But can peanut butter be raw too, or is it always made with roasted peanuts? Peanuts are a more complete protein than almonds. Almond butter is more expensive. But: almonds are alkalinizing, the only alkaline nut in fact. While peanuts are very acidic, more than any other nuts. Well, that's what I've read.

Lean and Green Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 www.bradsjams.com , as far as i know is raw and organic. 9 out of 10 brands on the shelves usually aren't FYI, Sunny wanted to vote as well and he chose Peanut Butter. You can't keep him away from the stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessifly Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I like the flavor of peanut butter but I sometimes have an allergic reaction to it, sometimes not. Occasionally I'll eat some but it's really not worth the chance of a reaction for it.... so I opt for almond butter most of the time but I haven't found one I like best yet. My most recent jar purchased is Barney Butter. It has cane sugar and palm oil so it's not my top choice health-wise, also it is supposed to be no stir but it definitely separates.... and it's not organic I mostly just get a little bit at a time of fresh ground almond butter from the machine, but that's not organic either.

Marcina Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I got some raw organic almond butter that is sooo good! It's just plain raw almonds in a jar. So simple, yet so delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Pink Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I'll have to say Peanut Butter. I haven't tried any Almond Butter as of yet. I will soon when I get a chance. Price and Taste are not on the top of my list as to why I'd buy it. It has to have the highest Protein Content. I always look at the Protein content first. I always buy the highest.

Dried beans are always going to be the best deal in that regard, especially dried soybeans. I don't normally push organic on people with a budget but if you buy dried soy beans get organic as commercial soy beans are heavily GMO and grown with tons of crap.
