Chunkiest (most chunky?) peanut butter?

<p>I am on a quest for the best chunky peanut butter. Any recommendations?</p>

2

<p>JIff, extra chunky, or super chunky? I’m too lazy to go to the pantry. But Jiff. Not overly sweet, tastes like peanuts. :D</p>

<p>Adams Crunchy No-Stir!</p>

4

<p>JIF Chunky/Crunchy!</p>

5

<p>Fresh ground honey roasted peanuts from the bulk area in Whole Foods.</p>

6

<p>'Nother vote for JIF. </p>

<p>And don’t bother getting the ‘low-fat’ stuff…a)it’s terrible, b)it isn’t peanut butter but a peanut-tasting concoction of junk.</p>

7

<p>If I have to buy a “store” brand, I buy JIF as well.</p>

8

<p>Choosy mothers choose Jif.</p>

9

<p>Did a side-by-side taste test of the 3 major brands years ago, and Skippy was the clear winner.</p>

<p>I’m so glad to see another Skippy fan. We used Jif for years. Then one day on a whim I bought Skippy and the whole family agreed it was both peanuttier and chunkier.</p>

11

<p>Skippy often tastes rancid to me. Jif tastes much better.</p>

12

<p>We always get Smuckers Natural chunky but not all stores may carry it. (Smuckers has a search engine to help locate those stores.) The only downside is that it separates and you have to mix it.</p>

13

<p>The bottom line is: Look at the ingredients - there should only be peanuts and salt and no other added stuff or it just isn’t healthy. I’m guessing that Jif and Skippy have a laundry list of added ingredients. We go with Trader Joe’s crunchy and it’s under $2.00 a jar!</p>

<p>Skippy??? :eek:</p>

<p>JIf Superchunk! Yep. ;)</p>

15

<p>My entire life I’ve been a Skippy fan. I love – absolutely love – their Super Chunky pb. I eat it in sandwiches, in celery, with apple wedges. </p>

<p>I tried Jif once and found it too sweet for my taste.</p>

<p>Here are Skippy’s ingredients: <a href=“http://www.peanutbutter.com/nutrion_chunk.html[/url]”>http://www.peanutbutter.com/nutrion_chunk.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

16

<p>Am I the only Peter Pan fan? I don’t eat the chunky, though - just the regular.</p>

17

<p>Smuckers or Teddie’s. Jif, Skippy, Peter Pan are all too sweet and lard-like for me.</p>

18

<p>Jif, cuz nobody makes peanut butter like mom. ;)</p>

<p>I hope you guys know I’m just kidding around. Sort of.</p>

<p>I was thinking about starting a thread: Hellman’s or Miracle Whip?</p>

<p>Another Skippy fan here…don’t know if the kids have even ever tasted Jif!</p>

<p>@Poetgrl - um…neither!</p>

<p>I didn’t know so many people has such strong feeling about their peanut butter. I buy Simply Jif usually since I think it has less sugar. They don’t seem to complain. We don’t use much peanut butter now that the kids are older.Though H bought a jar to take snowboarding this week. Peanut butter sandwiches on white bread are the lunch on the mountain. I can remember when the kids were younger buying it at Costco but now I think one small container sits for months in the cupboard. H likes the Trader Joe’s brand but the kids never liked the natural style.
When I eat PB I like creamy. The kids and H like chunky. The rats didn’t seem to have a preference. (H used to set the rat traps in our old house with PB)</p>
