What peanut butter do you buy?

[Mrstumbletap]

I see palm oil in loads of them, and the ones that don't have palm oil are £3-£5 a jar.

I can't say I know all the details about palm oil but I know it isn't great, but my DS loves peanut butter and it's going to be expensive if I'm spending £3 each week.

I find Whole Earth really dry and tastless. Like a sandy flip flop.

Morrisons finest is about £1.69 - beautiful stuff.

Sunpat- smooth, crunchy, or reduced sugar, they're all great.

Sun pat for me. I find the whole earth and other 'worthy' peanut butters rather too claggy, so stick to sun pat, good texture (for me) and no palm oil.

I always make my own. Bags of salted nuts from Aldi/Lidl, a dollop of coconut oil and blitz it up in the Magimix or Vitamix.

So tasty and cheap- we get through loads. DS always magically appears after I make some asking to lick the spatula

Whole earth or meridian. Meridian's cashew butter is immense :)

Whole Earth, preferably. For nut butters generally, my absolute favourite so far is smooth almond butter. I've got a jar of pecan butter in the cupboard which I'm massively looking forward to trying...

Sunpat for me, Pip and Nut for kids.

Pip and but currently 1.75 on offer

At Sainsburys

Sunpat no-added-sugar has peanuts, peanut oil, salt and a stabiliser (E471) in it.

I assume the stabiliser stops it from splitting, so you don't get a layer of oil at the top, that you have to keep stirring through, each time you use it. I know E-numbers have a bad name, but actually, if a substance has an E-number, it is because it has been tested as safe for use in foods in Europe (something we'll have to pay to do for ourselves after Brexit).

I started using it because I do try to avoid things with palm oil in them, and have recently changed to the no-added-sugar version, because it is naturally a little sweet, anyway.

Great, thank you all for your helpful peanut butter knowledge

Pip and Nut crunchy with maple syrup.

Great stuff!

Whole earth has palm oil in it! and is claggy too

Whole Earth.

None. 'Tis the devil's food.

Make your own? A girl called Jack had a recipe which involved washing the salt off the cheap-o value peanuts I think.

Meridian smooth here - I stock up on the 1kg tubs when they're £3.99 in Whole Foods (which seems to be often).

We get Meridian smooth as well. Needs a good stir to mix the oil in but it's delicious.
