peanut butter- skippy super chunk, sun-pat smooth

Sun-pat was less expensive today, so I bought that for the first time. It tastes a lot different than skippy, and I noticed that it has a lot less sodium: 386mg for skippy, 0.5g for sun-pat. Also, 20.2 mg carbs for skippy, 10.1 for sun-pat. However there is no nutritional valut on calorie count for sun-pat. It seems healthier but it doesnt taste as good. Should I toss skippy and stick with sun-pat? What doyou think?

 thanks!

I would go with all natural peanut butter! I swear by the stuff. I love knowing that all the oils are natural--there's something disconcerting about how they remove the peanut oil from peanut butter and replace it with other, cheaper oils, and then lace the stuff with icing sugar and emulsifiers. I like Kraft Roasted Peanut natural PB. It's only 90 calories per tbsp (as opposed to 100 in most other natural PBs) and has a great peanut-y taste to it!

Well i live in France and since they dont eat a lot of peanut butter, all natural peanut butter is nowhere to be found:( So i have to settle for what I find!

Use the healthier stuff you've found ... log in all the information, then TAG it so you have it readily available for future food logging!

I love peanut butter!

Have you tried health food stores? Some of them grind their own nut butters. I think I remember seeing natural PB in Scotland when I was there, and if they have it, I'd think you'd be able to get it in France. Good luck!

Question, when you said " it has a lot less sodium: 386mg for skippy, 0.5g for sun-pat." did you mean skippy had less or sun-pat had less? O_o looks like you were sayin sun-pay had less sodium but from what you just posted it has more.

0.5g = 500mg

You're right, its 0.5 g so sun-pay has more...thanks for pointing that out!
