Choosing the Right PB for Your Casa

Since peanut butter is widely popular and found in almost every one's home, I thought it would be good to blog about the different choices you have when you buy peanut butter. By doing so, I hope to help you all choose the right PB for your own homes. I have broken down the p-butter into 3 different types: Regular peanut butter, Natural peanut butter, and Peanut butter spreads.Today, I will talk about Regular peanut butter.

Regular PB:
* This type of PB is mostly on the shelves of your local grocery store.

*By law, this PB must contain no artificial sweeteners, colors, or preservatives and must be made up of 90% or more peanuts.

* Many brands contain hydrogenated oil in order to increase the shelf life and prevent the peanut oils from separating.

* Two tablespoons of this PB usually contains about 16 grams of fat with 3 of those grams being saturated along with 190 calories.

Keep posted for the next blogs on the other two types of peanut butter to come!!!
