They Changed Peanut Butter’s Ingredients!

Why I quit eating peanut butter. Peanut butter can be healthy, but you need to read the labels and be aware of its downside.

For those interested, Costco's Kirkland brand peanut butter is made from 100% Organic Valencia peanuts, with nothing else added. One of the best peanut butters out there (if you decide you really have to have peanut butter).

I've been aware of this for at least 25 years. They take the peanut oil out and sell it. Then they replace it with a cheaper oil, usually a hydrogenated fat along with sugar.
Only buy what is made with peanuts and salt. Nothing else added.

I am 55 and suffer from diabetes. Having been raised in the 70s and 80s I was one of the latchkey kids who raised themselves. We ate processed foods, microwave foods and chemicals called foods. After following the food pyramid and eating lots of carbs, I became addicted to sugars and carbs and wound up in the hospital near death in 2020. While I was in the hospital, my husband did some research and found Dr. Berg, Dr. Sten Echberg, and others who explained how sugar kills us and how processed foods are destroy8ing us. Since then, I am on a low carb whole food nutrition plan. Hubby makes nut butters for me from fresh nuts and cooks natural, whole foods in cast iron for me. I am still dealing with the ravages of diabetes, but I am getting healthier and I no longer eat the trash that fills the center of the grocery store.

It’s better to stick with peanut butter made from organic Valencia peanuts. Valencia peanuts come from very arid areas of the Southwest… Arizona, New Mexico, SoCal. This greatly lessens any aflatoxin molds. Also, find the dry roasted Valencia peanut butters (Trader Joe’s has it.)
The tremendous heat of the dry roasting process, destroys most of the phytic acid and lectins. We’ve done lab tests.
So IF you love peanut butter… stick with organic dry roasted Valencia peanut butter.

Storing organic peanut butter upside down keeps it mixed.

If you noticed it no longer says peanut butter on the labels. It now says peanut spread. It can only be labeled peanut butter if it is purely ground peanuts. Nothing else.

Peanuts are a member of the "bean" family and are not a nut at all.

The longer the shelf life, the shorter your life is… Damn that hits hard and couldn’t be any more true. Thank you for such informative content!!!

My husband is a pancake/PB guy..I do buy organic, but still...I don't eat it. It is a sad thing that companies are allowed to poison us right and left without consequence other than their rolling in money. another great video, thanks

The last peanut butter I bought was Smucker's Natural PB. Contains peanuts and less than 1% salt.

I take my organic peanut butter and put the jar upside down in the pantry this way when opening the jar most of the thicker solids are at the top.

You come across as a very intelligent, kind and passionate young woman. Take heart, there are good hearted people like yourself getting the word out. Great video.

I literally ate peanut butter on my toast for a year before starting carnivore. Was one of hardest things I gave up because I was so addicted.

[robert-yvyj]

I gave up alcohol, and coffee ten years ago . Gave up over- processed food four years ago. Of the three, it is sugar that causes the greatest cravings. Very often I'd kill for sweetened food. Another informative video. Thanks.

Addicted to peanut butter and am 57 years old, lol. Time to limit this addiction. Thanks Lillie! ❤❤❤

[trishthompson]

My dog and I were both addicted to peanut butter, since going carnivore 3 months ago, neither of us eat pnb anymore and now if I offer some to my dog, he refuses to eat it. I trust my dog, he knows its not healthy as I also once thought it was.

A comparison of ingredients from now Vs. then would be interesting. For example, a Big Mac in 1970 compared to 2024. Popular snacks like Oreos, candy bars and chips etc.

[RalfyCustoms]

Pip and nut peanut butter is 99.9% peanuts with a little sea salt, I have used it as a " stopper" during intermittent fasting, and still have a spoonful most days
No additives, no sugars etc, I'm happy with that

[donjaknow]

Go Lillie Go!!! Thanks so much for your great content and advice.

I don't know about other countries, but here in Canada, they are feeding palm oil or palm based feed to dairy cattle, and possibly other animals. This is a work-around for the regulations which prohibit adding it directly to the products like butter...

I first noticed something was off a few years back when the butter in my cupboard remained hard and impossible to spread at room temperature...it no longer even tastes like butter either...
