I love Peanut Butter. I cannot underscore the word Love Enough I mean if I could marry it I would. I am starting my next stage post-surgery that includes full liquids my question is the following. Has anyone tried PB2. It is a powdered peanut butter that has 85% less fat lower sugars. It is fantastic to use in yogurts and or Protein shakes. I use half of the recommended serving size which is 2 tablespoons I have attached a basic picture of the nutritional breakdown and was wondering if anyone can give me their comments on this product and its healthiness if eaten within moderation for those of you that have not tried this peanut butter substitute it comes in plain and peanut butter and chocolate flavored and all I can tell you is it is incredible. You can purchase this at GNC however I recently found it at Walmart in the peanut butter aisle.

It is delicious, but it does have a decent amount of sugar in it. You can buy plain powdered peanut butter that is a little more nutritionally sound, but really for the amount that you are eating, it's fine. I have some of the chocolate PB2 in my pantry, I use it to make chia pudding. (I am pre-op)

Yes, it has been around quite awhile and many posts on it. You can add it to shakes also. They have a chocolate version also, and I have bought it at Walmart a couple years.

Can you share the pudding recipe and carb count please

I use a 100% pure peanut powder because PB2 has added sugar, and I don't eat things with added sugar. You can find pure peanut powder on Amazon and in quality grocery stores and health food stores.

I buy that brand at my local grocery store.

Thanks so much

Yes, I use it. My NUT was the one who introduced me to PB2.

@@cbonet I take two tablespoons of chia seeds and mix them with 1/4 cup of a premier protein shake (whatever flavor you like) and let it sit in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes. That has 11 carbs, 14 grams of protein, and 160 calories (it is my dessert ) Adding 2 tablespoons of chocolate PB2 adds 6 carbs, 45 calories, and 4 grams of protein.

I use the peanut butter & co brand because it has a little less added sugar and I like it. Only when I really really need to satisfy fix.

For few calories and more Protein you could have these for desert, eatmeguiltfree.com

I love pb2 but you can also get a Jiff powdered peanut butter from Amazon that has no sugar.

I've used it a couple times too, not bad.

Buckle up ...

They also have chocolate pb, strawberry pb, grape pb, and banana pb. That stuff is fantastic! I mix it in every shake I drink.

Sometimes I add it to my chocolate shake for a Reese's flavor. Good stuff. I got an organic brand at TJ maxx this last go round that I like just as well.

Peanut Butter is my thing, too. Like how some people go crazy for all things chocolate-- I go nuts for peanut butter! I make a blended shake with vanilla premier Protein, a scoop of PB2, and a frozen banana. It is so good and it keeps me full from my early morning Breakfast until lunch. Good luck!!
