Not bad if you burn off the calories. Nuts are among the most nutritious of foods.

>on rustic wheat bread
I don't think so.

>>4797570

It's not.

>>4797570

I don't think rustic means what you think it does.

>Technically

Well then you're talking about t he style/brand/ingredients/etc. right?

Let's see.

Buying a plastic jar of Skippy. Bad.
Buying a bag of peanuts and making your own butter. Good.

90 calories per tablespoon, make of that what you will

>>4797676

But it's also full of proteins, the fats in it are fairly good, there's carbohydrates...it's a very efficient food. If I was at a Walmart and it was the apocalypse, I'd go for the pizza pockets.

>>4797581
hmm let see whats in a jar of Skippy Natural:
>Roasted peanuts, sugar, palm oil, salt
>MFW

>>4797581
You can also buy natural peanut butter.

>>4797688
He clearly meant "regular" Skippy. I happen to have some on hand:

>Roasted peanuts, sugar, hydrogenated vegetable oils (cottonseed, soybean and rapeseed), salt

I keep trying to find peanut free peanut butter. Have an allergy thing, same with salt. Every now and then I'll find it

If your peanut butter doesn't start to separate in a day, it's bad for you.

It's high in fat and protein. Good for keeping full, but a costly source of protein. There are better alternatives, but this isn't the worst of spreads for you.

lul
This loser is afraid of emulsifiers

>>4797736
almond butter is nice, the natural food store lets you grind them right into a little plastic tub. Same with the peanut butter and they're both delicious. The peanut butter is way cheaper though.

I don't know why people always says peanut butter is "high in protein" ---- it's high in calories and fat, not in protein.
Sure, it's higher in protein than like fucking mustard or something...but shit, no one should be eating pb for the protein content

>>4797744

>implying hydrogenated oils are emulsifiers.

Are you even trying right now?

>it has protons in it
>Implying its not still a fatty calorie rich spread for bread
>Implying you can't get all that nutrition, protons and flavour with chicken liver, hearts or hell even thighs can be made tasty....
Not the worst thing to put in your mouth but still not good

>>4797690
Which is why I specified otherwise.

>>4797688

>natural
>added sugar
>adding extra oil to an already fatty as fuck nut

>>4797570
If it's from the store, and it doesn't say "natural," it's made with some peanuts and an assload of hydrogenated vegetable/soybean oil - trans fats, the worst motherfuckers for you on the planet. Go for the natural stuff - real peanut butter - or make your own.

>>4797766

Are you saying chicken parts are healthier than peanuts?

>>4797743
hey, the peanut butter I ground myself hasn't separated this week. It might be the combination of bubbles, small bits and big chunks holding it in place.

Its fine OP. A little bit on your toast is not gonna fucking kill you. As long as you dont eat spoonfulls like a fatty you will be good. Stop being a fag and enjoy some delicious PB on toast. Drizzle some some honey on top of that and you will jizz rainbows.

>>4797796
>retarded are we?
>sugar and palm not natural?
A little oil helps making the peanut butter smoother and the sugar or you can use honey makes it taste better.
google some peanut butter recipes before you open your trap.

My favorite peanut butter recipe
Roasted peanuts
Honey
Peanut oil

google some peanut butter recipes before you open your trap.

Accept no substitutes.

PB is lazy, though. It's one of the rare, if not only sources of a fatty acid you usually synthesize yourself.

>>4797858

They're not naturally found in peanuts, no, you retard. Peanut butter is just ground peanuts. You can flavor it with other things, but at that point it's not "natural peanut butter," it's modified, less healthy peanut butter

I got some massive thing of peanut butter as costco.

Ingredients: Peanuts, salt (45mg per 2 tablespoons)

It's not as black and white as that.

peanut butter is healthy in the sense that it's loaded with unsatured fats. But that doesn't mean you should be smearing globs and globs of peanut butter on everything. And I don't think a PB&J sandwich can ever be called health food

as for the people complaining about the ingredients... just buy another brand. The stuff I buy is literally nothing but peanuts and salt.

I'm always amazed peanut butter had to be invented. It's so simple. All it is is ground nuts. You'd think indians would have been making it for thousands of years, but I guess not. Maybe they used acorns or something similar.

>>4797934

Mayans DID make peanut butter for thousands of years. George Washington Carver didn't actually "invent" it, he just introduced it to the united states

>>4797944

Oh wait, I mean Aztecs, not Mayans

>>4797570
Technically? not at all

>>4797944
Of course Carver didn't invent peanut butter. He wasn't even the first in the US to make it.

Carver 'inventing' peanut butter is simply a myth because his name is pretty much synonymous with peanuts so people assume he did.

>>4797766
mayo has protons too, as well as electrons

>>4797570
I'll take "Pointless questions" for 200 Alex.

>>4797575
Yes and now. What study shows are that you dont retain the calories you dont burn with nuts. For instance, eating almonds that are full of calories, wont make youfat by any way.

>>4797744
LOL.

>>4797581
Marianos in Chicago has a machine where you make your own peanut butter

This thread is now about peanut butter deserts

HIT ME

>>4798928
A blender?
Wow! I have one too!

>>4797581
>Buying a bag of peanuts and making your own butter. Good.
And how does one make their own peanut butter?

>>4798897

That's 100 percent bull shit.

When I was fatter I used to eat peanuts all day every day.

>>4797688
That's the natural Skippy. Skippy/Jif have hydrogenated veg oil.

>>4798087
SMART JOKE ALERT

peanut butter is awesome, and good for you, if you buy the right kind. go to whole foods and get the ground peanut butter, or grind your own. It tastes better and is just peanuts. I eat a lot of it, because I'm trying to put on weight, and generally have a huge appetite. The fats keep me full.

>>4798957
But was it good peanut butter ?
