You should try almond butter. Much better IMO. It is more expensive, unless you make it yourself of course.

I was just thinking--if peanut prices do rise by a third, maybe almond butter suddenly becomes price competitive with PB to many consumers. Interesting. I love almond butter.

I've been buying nut butters for food storage (and eatage!). Delicious, and the jars take up very little space in my apartment.

In addition to peanut and almond, I like sunflower seed butter, and cashew butter as a special treat. I recommend the "Once Again" brand. No affiliation...

I was told by the doc to avoid all nuts....I can just tolerate sunflower seeds.

Is this an improvement over "SunButter"? That stuff is so runny it is useless. I could almost eat it with a straw - very disappointing.

With the Once Again nut butters I've tried -- When you open a new jar you have to mix up the contents with a spoon or spatula, because the oil has separated out. That requires a bit of patience. But then you store the opened jar in the refrigerator, and no more mixing is needed.

I can't comment on SunButter because I've never tried it...
