“Simply” hard to find
So the wife brings home some new peanut butter some months ago. Healthier peanut butter. Great, not that I knew peanut butter was unhealthy in the first place. It’s called Simply Jif. Again great, I grew up and to this day eat Jif. And this Simply Jif says it has 33% Less Sugar and Low Sodium. Ingredients are peanuts. Well almost, it also contains 2% or less of partially hydrogenated vegetable oil (soybean), fully hydrogenated oils, (rapeseed and soybean), mono- and diglycerides, molasses, sugar, and salt. And it tastes just like the regular Jif Creamy Peanut Butter, or at least close enough that I can’t tell a difference. And so we bought it and ate it, bought it and ate it, and bought it and ate it. But now we are having a hard time buying it. The shelf at the grocery store is empty darn near every time we go there and the other stores nearby don’t even seem to carry it. So we are buying two jars now whenever we see it. Give it a try if you’re looking for a healthier PB but don’t get too attached as the stores don’t seem to be supporting it. You could always try an organic PB. My little brother says it’s pretty good too.
