MyFitness Original Peanut Butter — OKAY

Munch or Dump rates MyFitness Original Peanut Butter by My Fitness OKAY — score 60/90.

A real peanut base loaded with protein and good fats, dragged down a notch by added brown sugar and an emulsifier.

Why this verdict

• Roasted peanuts lead the list: real protein and good unsaturated fats
• Added brown sugar bumps up the sugar with no nutritional upside
• Contains an emulsifier (INS471) to keep oil from separating
• Short, recognizable ingredient list with nothing artificial

Ingredients (4)

• roasted peanuts (safe) — Whole-food base packed with protein, fiber, and heart-healthy unsaturated fats.
• brown sugar (moderate) — Added sugar for sweetness; raises blood sugar and adds empty calories.
• Pink Himalayan Salt (safe) — Plain salt for flavor; chemically no different from regular salt despite the premium name.
• Stabilizer (INS471) (moderate) — Mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids, an emulsifier that stops the peanut oil from separating; a processing additive, not nutrition.
