Ingredients (5)

• Peanuts (94%) (safe) — Whole peanuts deliver protein, fiber, and unsaturated fats. The dominant ingredient and the reason to eat this.
• Palm Oil (moderate) — Refined oil added for mouthfeel; high in saturated fat with no whole-food benefit.
• Peanut oil (1.2%) (safe) — Pressed from peanuts; fine in small amounts and consistent with the product.
• Cane Sugar (moderate) — Added sweetener. Small amount but unnecessary in a savory spread; pure peanut butters skip it entirely.
• Salt (moderate) — Ready meals tend to run salt-heavy; watch the sodium.
