Review: First off, most natural peanut butters cost me over $3.00 for a 16oz jar. Second, most self-described natural peanut butters become stale and dry after one or two uses or a day in the refrigerator. Third, most natural peanut butters only list salt and peanuts as their ingredients, but taste as if there has been a half cup of sugar stirred into them.

Trader Joe's peanut butter doesn't even say that it is natural on the label like most other brands do. A 16oz jar costs less than two bucks, it doesn't become stale or dry very quickly and you can actually taste the peanut flavor in this sandwich staple.

I have only tasted one other peanut butter this delicious in my life and that was bought from a farmer's market for nearly $5.00 for a small jar. Oh Trader Joe's, are you going to make me venture into the trenches of Lincoln park every time I want even a PB&J sandwich? Curse you for being so economical!
