In theory, I’m a fan of fresh peanut butter. In reality, I never loved the taste or
the endless stirring of oil that floats to the top of the jar. Peanut Butter & Co. offers a middle
ground where the peanut butter tastes delicious and comes without industrial
ingredients like hydrogenated oil.
Not that this is health food. PB & Co’s palm oil will clog an artery, and PB & Co.
adds sugar and chocolate as well.
These are thick, sweet spreads – standing out more as a adult ingredient
than beating Jif crunchy in a PB&J sandwich. A heaping spoonful of Cinnamon Raisin Swirl or the Dark
Chocolate Dreams turns sliced apple into dessert. You could jazz up oatmeal or bake great cookies.
In the end, peanut butter isn’t a deep-thought food. We really like this stuff. We really like the texture of the
Cinnamon Raisin Swirl. It tastes
more homemade – or at least it did until I just tasted it again for this post
and wondered whether the texture is actually crystals of sugar. We don’t want to know.
See the comments below. Peanut Butter & Co.’s varieties are available in Harris Teeter and at Giant. They’re also available at Whole Foods.

I'm pretty sure I got mine at Wegmans and it didn't cost me $5. It's no Nutella but it eats pretty well from the jar with a spoon.
You have to rub in that Wegmans access!! A great store -- and cheaper? ;-)
Well, that Wegmans access comes with a daily commute to Hunt Valley!
Almost worth it. Have you considered making a little money on the side by delivering Wegmans products to your neighbors?
just got it for $4.99 at the dorsey giant. it's really good!
Oh my God that looks amazing. Chocolate and peanut butter combo is my favorite treat!
Yeah, Giant's carried those and some other varieties for years. -- David P
