Fit Nutz Peanut Butter

Has anyone tried this? It seems way too good to be true - it looks better than Better N P.B. since it still has a high protein content in addition to zapping out all the fat.  I'm thinking about ordering up a sample pack.

I have not tried Fitnutz, but I have tried PB2 which seems to be similar. Here is the link to their nutritionals:

PB2 is actually pretty tasty. Way better that Better N P.B. Some time ago I bought Better N P.B., opened the jar, tried it once, and it's been sitting in my fridge ever since. With the PB2 though, I just got it on Friday, and  have had already used it several times. I did check out the Fitnutz site, and their product has more protein, which is good, but it is also slightly higher in calories than PB2. My only complaint about both of them is that they both have added sugar - although PB2 is allegedly looking to come out with a sugar free version. I hope this helps. If you do try FitNutz, make sure to give us a review. Good luck! 

 

It does look very similar to PB2 which I have tried and I do enjoy (not as much as regular PB, but I can never control myself with regular PB and end up eat way too much!).  The regular Fitnutz only has 60 calories...that is only 6 more calories per serving than PB2, not such a big deal.

I just ordered the sample pack...I figured it's only $3.50, so it is worth a shot.
Yeah, PB is my ultimate weakness, this Fitnutz seems great, and I love how you don't have to sacrifice the protein, either.  I'll probably order the sample pack - you'll definitely have to let me know when you get yours so we can compare notes.
Where do you order or buy Fitnutz, I am a pbj addict.

I ordered, and am now addicted.  I really like the stuff. .I think it has great flavor, and is great for travel.

I have ordered Fitnutz 3 times.  It did not take me very long to get to really like it; initially, of course, one notices that it lacks the rich, oily taste of regular peanut butter.  The regular has 50 calories per 2 tablespoons (I use around 2 tablespoons of water--the package says 2 teaspoons, which does not work at all) to put on 4 pieces of 40 calorie each slices of bread.  For one package the shipping cost was $3.00, and for 3 packages the shipping cost was $8.00.  Thus, the regular came out to $4.99 plus $3.00 on the first order.  The chunky is $5.99.  So the 2nd order cost $ $8.66 per 5 oz. package, and the regular cost $7.65 per 5 oz. package.  I love the product, but I think it seems fairly expensive.

I'm curious--has anyone else tried Fitnutz?  I have used up my last package.  I have yet to order any more, but I really have grown to like it.

Do any of you know of a peanut butter mix that a person can buy in stores, such as in Walmart or in big grocery chains.

Have any of you compared Fitnutz to other peanut butter mixes?

I like the fact that regular only has 50 calories per 2 tablespoons..  I can use D'Italiano 40-calorie a slice bread and use 6 tablespoons of Fitnutz to make 6 one-sided PB sandwiches for a total of only 390 calories and get good protein and other nutrients.
