Threetimesacharm 1,400 Posted July 4, 2016 1/4 of a teaspoon of sugar for a two tablespoon serving is a very small amount. PB2 is a delicious alternative to the real thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chycky 671 Posted July 7, 2016 @@OutsideMatchInside FYI: Just bought the Jiff PB powder and it is nothing but peanuts! Good to be thinking of these things, and I realize the PB (esp choco) had more than one ingredient. I was happy that sugar was only 1g on regular and ingredients were not lab made, but your comments helped me find another version to have on hand! Amazon had Jiff PB powder (100% peanuts) for 6.99/bag free shipping! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
katesuccess 990 Posted July 7, 2016 I get the Jif one too, as I can grab it on the shelf when I run out, instead of ordering it. My favorite is adding it to my Protein 'pudding' -- I mix 3 or 4 ounces of nonfat or 2% Fage Greek yogurt with a scoop of chocolate Protein Powder and a serving of peanut powder -- I add stevia and a teeny bit of cocoa to make it stronger, and it's to die for! (best if you can let it sit in the frig to meld for an hour or so - or overnight as needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OutsideMatchInside 10,166 Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) @@chycky Thanks! I have never seen the Jif powder before but I will look for it in the future. In the big scheme of things 1g of sugar isn't a big deal. As I am still trying to lose and coming up on one year, I have to think long term. I see so many people come back to forums at the 2 to 5 year mark talking about regain or never meeting goal, and usually is it a lot of little things that make that happen, not one big thing. So I am really trying not to let those little things sneak in or become lax in how diligent I am about what I eat just because I have lost X pounds already.
