 Walden Farms FF CF Peanut Spread October 31, 2008

First of all, this is "peanut spread" - not peanut butter! So adjust your expectations accordingly. Butter is by definition, fat-based. This is, read and repeat, not butter and has no fat. It is however, a great peanut flavored, somewhat grainy, but surprisingly creamy, spread. Like the other reveiws, I agree its best as an ingredient and not solitary. For what it is, it is great! Congrats Walden Farms! I cannot beleive we now have a fat free and calorie free "peanut spread" prototype! I mean, come on, there is no calories! Let the health nuts, picky eaters and critics stay fat. To each his own, stubby. Pass the peanut spread and viva la flavor! I eat it every day.

I discovered this great product about 2 months ago and since then have consumed five jars of it. I love it. Hardly a day goes by when I don't have some. No it isn't peanut butter but it has a near nutty taste and mixed with some of the Walden fruit spreads (raspberry seems to work best) makes a great peanut butter/jelly taste to use on crackers, bread, etc. The consistency is pretty firm although not as thick as regular peanut butter it's perfectly acceptable (to me). The color is fine a bit darker than regular peanut butter (not that you can taste color - but it does influence people's opinion). I rarely take the time to write product reviews and was shocked when I came here to look for another Walden product to find that so many people had left negative reviews of this product and felt compelled to leave a more positive opinion. I think if you like Diet Coke and understand that it's not regular Coke than you will understand this product isn't Peanut Butter but just as Diet Coke is a good substitute for Coke and saves you about 200 calories a serving that this "Peanut Spread" is a good alternative to regular peanut butter and will save you about 200 calories a serving (2 Tablespoons).

OK, I am very health concious and watch calories, carbs and fat content. I like regular PB very much but it has a lot of calories so I thought I would try this. Immediately after opening kind of a greenish brown color and pudding consistency. When I first looked at it my thoughts definitely were not of PB but something much worse. Then I tasted it. I would have to say that the taste and texture were the same as that much worse item that comes in about the same color. This stuff is totally GROSS. Do not waste your money. Save the calories and have the real thing. At least with real PB you get some nutritional value. I do think Walden Farms could market this as an appetite suppresant.

I can't believe that Walden Farms markets this product! The taste is blah,the texture is gluey. If I liked pb cookies I might bake with it. I ended up throwing it out. I'll suck up the calories and carbs from other products. Truly disappointted as I use the WF salad dressings all the time (sometimes as a marinade). A big stinkofor the PB!
 Ok, it's not peanut butter... but they tried May 29, 2008

I love PB and can't eat it at all during my cutting phases because I tend to eat way too much of it and go over my calorie and fat limit for the day. (It's great for getting the correct ratio of healthy fats into your diet for bulking phases though!) I've tried other PB substitues like Better 'N Peanut Butter and PB2(PB2 is a powdered peanut butter mix with about 1/4 the calories and fat of regular PB, and it tastes just like the normal stuff) and they are not bad. But I still can't eat as much of it as I want.
As soon as I saw this, my first thought was "SWEET!!! THIS MIGHT ACTUALLY BE GOOD!" I read some reviews, thought for 25 seconds, ordered 3 jars, and didn't really have too high of expectations since it is a calorie free product.
Well, it kind of tastes like roasted peanuts... kind of. I'd say it's more of a fake sugar/bitter coffee/peanut flavored pudding product. If you can imagine the aftertaste you get from the fake sugar in diet coke, you can kind of imagine this.
It's not a total failure though, because I am still going to use this, but not by itself. I tried mixing a few tablespoons of this with a tablespoon of regular creamy PB and a little bit of PB2 powder. The normal PB enhances the peanut taste where this stuff left off, and the PB2 gives it the right texture. After all that, it's really not bad. I'd even say pretty good. Regular PB has about 100 calories per tablespoon and a ton of fat. This mixed PB concoction has maybe 25 calories per tablespoon. Not bad.
The walden farms grape jelly is great, and does taste like real jelly. And I'll use it with the peanut butter mix on light wheat bread, and you have a fairly good 200 calorie PB&J sandwich (that's 1/4 the calories and fat of a normal PB&J).
