Good, healthy PB brands? I think the cals in vs cals out has been beat to death. We All Know!!! the op asked for a good, cheap, healthy version of pb...
Good, healthy PB brands? Eat whatever one you want, i only get the natural PB from trader joes since it tastes much better than most i have tried, and has flaxseeds in it since i like crunchy PB. Dont be afraid of hydrogenated oils, its people who consume TONS of the stuff that have the issues, its like the food with transfats, doritos chips have them, as long as you arent consuming bags and bags of those...you are fine. irrelevant advice: just like anything, everything in moderation. Organic ones, natural i guess you'd call it....dont have the hydrogenated oils so you have to stir it very well, and must throw it in the fridge or it will separate again. Dont NOT eat skippy super chunky PB because others have a penchant for organic stuff though, eat the stuff YOU prefer! Most natural PBs will also have more protein than their "processed" counterparts, though its a gram or two which isnt a big deal in the grand scheme of things. If on a deficit however...id make more choices that give you satiety like peanuts, almonds, or cheese. Fats are very dangerous if you dont weigh and measure them since they are 9 cals per gram.
Good, healthy PB brands? ^ Same, Trader Joes PB is awesome, super tasty. Also you might want to try their Almond Butter, super awesome as well.
