The all-natural Naturally More peanut butter certainly has a lot going for it on paper: It was named one of the 125 best packaged foods by Women's Health, has no cholesterol or trans-fats, and contains healthy essentials like flaxseed, flax oil, and omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. On top of these positive facts, the company boasts that its product has 25 percent more protein and 50 percent more fiber than regular brands. Is this the perfect peanut butter? See the product's nutritional information and my review when you read more.
Nutritionally, this is definitely a twist on an old favorite: Beyond roasted peanuts, Naturally More contains wheat germ, flaxseed, flax oil, egg whites, omega-3 and omega-6. The fact that this peanut butter is fortified with heart healthy ingredients might make me overlook a slight taste deficiency, but I can't say that I'd be able to tell the difference between Naturally More and another natural brand. It tasted like creamy, delicious peanut butter — just the way it should be. I can't wait to eat it with my apple slices for a pre-workout snack, which motivates me to work out.

FYI: It is National Peanut Butter Month! If you're a PB lover, celebrate with two tablespoons of your favorite peanut spread!

wow, sounds great!
but i loved eating it when i travel to the US
1too bad we don't have peanut butter in brazil
* when i traveled
2My father, brother, and I tried this peanut butter a while ago. For some reason it kept on giving us all headaches, so we stopped using it. And when we left it in the fridge, the consistency got all weird - so we tossed it.
We found some Peter Pan Natural Peanut Butter that was a lot creamier and much better (it's got a honey-roasted taste to it!), IMO. Go figure.
3It seems like the calorie content is less than my normal peanut butter.
4This is my favorite kind of peanut butter! But the last few times I've gone to the store, they've been completely out of it =(
5i heard about this peanut butter called BP2. Its a powdered peanut butter that you add water to it as you want it. Its really good. They also make a kind with coco in it. That one is INSANE. For 2 tbsp it is 54 caloires.
Me and my daughter love it. You can order it online. Check it out!
I will add, there is NOTHING like the real thing but for the lack of calories and fat, this is the way to go.
6pwodered peanut butter?? o.O that's a bit freaky.
how is this all natural peanut butter lower in calories than the regular ones?
i'm still in the search for a good low cal organic peanut butter, but Jif still remains in our pantry. lol.
7This sounds good...
8I've had this before and as far as natural organic peanut butter goes, I really liked it. It does harden up a bit in the fridge, but I would just nuke it for a couple seconds in the microwave to soften it up before spreading. I love that the calorie count is so much lower than other peanut butters (usually 200 for 2 tbsp!)
Soniabonya, perhaps it's the less added sugar is why it has less calories? I don't have a jar in front of me, but I'm willing to be there's a lot more than 2g of sugar in those more popular mainstream peanutbutters like Jiff or Skippy - (or is it Skip and Jiffy ... ? I can never remember!) I wish Fit had put a comparison to one of those or something similar.
9PS - only problem is that I can never find this in any store. A client gave me a jar a couple months ago and said she got it at Wal-mart of all places, but I couldn't find it in the store near me. Also looked for it at Trader Joe's last night expecting to see it, but no. Anyone know where to go? Whole Foods?? (but then it'll probably be $5!!)
10this is hands down the only peanut butter ill ever eat
11I'll have to try this. I love peanut butter.
12My husband is a devotee of this stuff (especially during his bulking phase). Publix sells it.
13I buy all the time and love it! You can find it a Wegmans and even wallmart
14Ohhh I'll have to check this out.
I LOVE peanut butter!
Anyone know how it compares - price wise - to reg nautral pb?
15Best PB out there: Better N Peanut Butter from Trader Joe's. It's 100 calories per serving and tastes amazing
16Jive, I saw that powdered PB on the Today show on Friday! They pretty much agreed with you-the taste wasn't quite the same, but to kill a PB craving with less calories, it's the way to go!
17Hm, I don't think I want a bunch of extra stuff in my peanut butter... just a bit of oil and salt. Egg whites? That sounds strange.
18i've tried several 'natural' peanut butters and i haven't found the taste to be as good or satisfying as regular ones - so i'm interested to see how this one is. i know that you noted that the flavor is pretty similar, but i would have to think that with some of the added things in this, it would have the potential to taste better. i might be willing to give just one more natural alternative a try!
19It's just gross to put egg whites in peanut butter. Peanut butter is just so good in it's pure form.
20That IS freaking me out with the egg whites in it...that's like selling apple butter but w/ bacon grease mixed in. Weird.
21I love this! Thats because it has a stronger peanut taste to it
22I ADORE this peanut butter. It is best straight from a spoon or on a banana. Whenever I melt peanut butter onto a bagel, I usually choose Skippy Natural because it is most like the original 1950's type peanut butter but without partially hydrogenated oil.
I go through 1 jar a week of this Naturally More by dipping everything I eat into it... and spoons.. and sometimes my fingers if the jar is just for me and no one else!
Surprisingly - it tastes sweeter than other "naturals" like, smuckers natural, even though it actually has less sugar. How did they pull that off?
23Well, I've tried it, and what's strange about it to me is that it's too creamy, I can pretty much pour the stuff out of the container, and that after mixing it up.
24This is the my far the best, most delicious peanut butter I have ever had. Who cares if it has a few egg whites mixed up in it. Some of you are all freaking out about that - half of the other junk we eat out there had God knows what in it.
Just eat some and enjoy!
