Crunchy Nutty Peanut Butter — DUMP

Name: Crunchy Nutty Peanut Butter
Brand: United Foods

Munch or Dump rates Crunchy Nutty Peanut Butter by United Foods DUMP — score 18/90.

A short list ruined by fully hydrogenated soya oil plus added sugar. Hydrogenated oil is an automatic dump, no matter how few ingredients sit around it.

Why this verdict

Fully hydrogenated soya oil is a heavily processed stabilizer fat with zero nutritional upside
Added sugar is the second ingredient, sweetening a spread that does not need it
Hydrogenated oil overrides the short, otherwise-simple ingredient list

Ingredients (4)

roasted peanuts (safe) — The one ingredient a peanut butter actually needs; good protein and healthy fats.
Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
Salt (moderate) — Used in moderation, might exceed necessary amount.
Fully Hydrogenated Soya Oil (harmful) — A heavily processed stabilizer fat used to stop oil separation. Hydrogenated oils have no place in a healthy diet and automatically tank the verdict.
