It's a simple question. Jif or Teddies? Information is given about both brands, or just choose which you like to use.

Jif. Because it's what we like.

WOW, when did Skippy have a recall ???? I must have missed that one.

I LIVE on PB and only eat Jiff or Skippy

I enjoy peanut butter too. But I don't enjoy eating peanut butter which has other things in it other than peanuts or flaxseeds ground into it.

Hydrogenated fats and oils are HEAVY (did I say HEAVY? Yes, heavy.). If you take a coffee cake, for example, and it is HEAVY, it isn't because it is packed with cinnamon or fruit toppings or is rich with healthful ingredients. Read the label. If it is HEAVY, more than likely it has hydrogenated fats or oils (or shortening, same thing).

Those little melt-candies to make your own candies? Read what is in those (sold at craft stores). That is not candy, that is hydrogenated fats/oils.

Hydrogenated fats and oils STAY in your body and they have hooks upon which they hang on your blood vessels, causing problems with thinking, stroke potential, heart issues, and pockets of fat which hang on areas prone to fat storage.

Peanuts are peanuts and peanuts are food.

Hydrogenated fats and oils are for extending the shelf life of products for sale and for giving WEIGHT and BULK to items sold.

I find I do not like homemade much. Dry roasted are too bland and salted are way too salty.

For people who don't like the oil at the top, I turn my jar upside down until I'm ready to open it, then I flip it for a couple hours and it's much easier to stir up. Once you refrigerate it, it doesn't separate again. You used to could buy no stir crunchy, now it's only creamy and I don't like that.

Choosy moms choose Jif. I guess they brainwashed me with that slogan.

Jif for me too! OMG. I am usually not influenced by commercials of any type and don't pay attention to things like that. But that commercial-- let's say I will remember until I die! I have no idea why! Isn't it funny what we remember like that in advertising? I have trouble buying anything but Jif peanut butter. And when I do buy Trader Joes or something else, I worry that no one in my family will like it!!

I will also always remember that old Enjoli commercial. Where the woman can bring home the bacon fry it up in a pan....and never let him forget he's a man. Cause I'm a woman......Enjoli. Both commercials are permanently recorded in my mind!

That's what I buy. Less fat and the taste is the same as the regular Jif. And not oily!
