Trader Joe's Organic Crunchy PB, amazing!
I love it when stores have peanut butter machines! In Texas most larger HEB's, Krogers and all Whole Foods have them. But when I lived in Cali I practically lived off of Trader Joes PB crunchy and smooth.
I love Maranatha or a good quality store brand at my co-op which ever is on sale.
I use Whole Earth organic Peanut Butter, absolutely delicious!
If you can't find any unsweetened/salted PB in the store try making your own! Buy a bag of roasted peanuts and throw them in a food processor for a few minutes. I"ve gotten away from nut butters but when I was having them I liked doing this. Some recipies on the internet call for oil, but honestly the peanuts are so oily already you can just throw peanuts in.
Could probably throw in a little cocoa powder and make chocolate PB. Just an idea!
Organic honey roasted peanut butter is tasty.
A peanut butter with flax seeds seem the most healthiest b/c of the healthy fats and omega 3's found in flax seeds-great for lowering bad cholesterol and raising the good.
Some people grow their own flax and peanuts, so you can have your own homemade version!
