Sure they CAN but do they typically & then is it in any appreciable quantities? Dosage determines the poison...
 
I grew up on peanut / sesame butter noodle. Basically some cooked asian noodle in a bowl with soy sauce / peanut butter / sesame butter and some green onion.

Definitely. The original post was about addiction to peanut butter. That implies someone eating a jar or more a day. That has to increase the chance of high dosage.
 
Teddies Peanut butter is peanuts and salt, period; all the well known brands (jiffy, skippy etc) have all sort of extra fat and junk added.

I love crunchy Kraft PB with jam on white bread.

I have to defer from the norm here - I HATE 'natural' or 'homestyle' Peanut Butter - it's always oily and gross!

Give it to me sweetened and mixed-up good!

They say organic peanuts / peanut butter are much less apt to contain aflatoxin.

from the jif website:
Ingredients:
MADE FROM ROASTED PEANUTS AND SUGAR, CONTAINS 2% OR LESS OF: MOLASSES, FULLY HYDROGENATED VEGETABLE OILS (RAPESEED AND SOYBEAN), MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES, SALT.
I'm ok w/ that.

Teddies PB makes natural and un-natural PB. I used to drive by there in a Boston suburb and smell the nice roasted peanuts.

in peanut butter or just in general?
 
At least you guys can eat peanut butter. I used to live for PB&J. Now I have an 8-year-old daughter with a severe peanut allergy. Can't have it in the house. Haven't had PB in years.

I like Kraft best as well, I prefer the smooth though.
I don't think our U.S. friends get Kraft peanut butter.

Kraft just started selling it here within the last few months. They brand it "Planter's," though.

Over the last few months, I have been trying all the available brands of conventional stabilized peanut butter. Skippy is the best so far, followed by Jif, with Kraft a close #3. Peter Pan is bringing up the rear of the list.
