Brand: Jiffy

Munch or Dump rates Jif Natural Peanut Butter by Jiffy OKAY — score 60/90.

Three simple ingredients: peanuts, palm oil, and salt. Mostly whole-food peanuts with no added sugar, dragged down only by refined palm oil added as a stabilizer.

Why this verdict

Only 3 ingredients, dominated by whole peanuts
No added sugar and no artificial additives
Peanuts deliver real protein and healthy fats
Palm oil is a refined stabilizer that adds unnecessary saturated fat

Ingredients (3)

Peanuts (safe) — Whole legume, protein and fiber. Another real, minimally processed ingredient.
Palm Oil (moderate) — High in saturated fat; deep-frying medium that pushes fat and calories up.
Salt (moderate) — Added for taste and mild preservation. Fine in small amounts but adds to daily sodium.
